# Security Code Review

This skill is **explicit-invoke only** (`disable-model-invocation: true`) and **read-only** (`allowed-tools` covers reading + searching, no editing). It surfaces findings — fixing them is a separate, deliberate step.

## Categories to check

- **Injection**: SQL, NoSQL, OS command, LDAP, XPath, template
- **XSS**: reflected, stored, DOM-based; encoding context (HTML body vs. attribute vs. JS context)
- **AuthN / AuthZ**: missing checks, broken object-level authorization, privilege escalation
- **Input validation**: trust boundaries, type confusion, deserialization
- **Sensitive data exposure**: secrets in code, tokens in logs, PII in error responses, weak hashing
- **Cryptography**: hardcoded keys, ECB mode, weak algorithms (MD5/SHA-1 for security), missing IV randomness

## Output

For each finding, report:

1. **File and line** (Path:Line format so the user can jump to it)
2. **Severity** (critical / high / medium / low / informational)
3. **What's wrong**
4. **What an attack would look like**
5. **A recommended fix direction** (not the actual code change — that's a separate skill)

Group findings by severity. Don't speculate about issues you can't see in the code; if a check requires runtime context you don't have, say so.

pr-to-video

heygen-com/hyperframes

Turn a GitHub pull request (a PR URL, owner/repo#N, or 'this PR' in a checked-out repo) into a code-change explainer video — changelog, feature reveal, fix, or refactor walkthrough built from the diff, commits, and files: the input is a code change, not a website. Not a product promo (/product-launch-video) or a no-PR topic explainer (/faceless-explainer). Unclear → /hyperframes.

Use when receiving code review feedback, before implementing suggestions, especially if feedback seems unclear or technically questionable - requires technical rigor and verification, not performative agreement or blind implementation

public-relations

coreyhaines31/marketingskills

When the user wants help with public relations, earned media, press coverage, journalist outreach, or media strategy (not pull requests). Also use when the user mentions 'PR,' 'public relations,' 'press,' 'press release,' 'press coverage,' 'media outreach,' 'pitch a journalist,' 'get featured,' 'media list,' 'media kit,' 'press kit,' 'newsjacking,' 'news hijack,' 'HARO,' 'Qwoted,' 'Featured,' 'Help A Reporter,' 'reporter request,' 'tech press,' 'TechCrunch,' 'earned media,' 'thought leadership placement,' 'op-ed,' 'guest article,' 'press contacts,' 'podcast prep,' 'going on a podcast,' 'podcast guest,' 'prep me for this podcast,' or 'how do I get press.' Use this for earned media work — finding journalists, pitching stories, newsjacking, prepping podcast appearances, and responding to press requests.
