semgrep

Run Semgrep static analysis scans and create custom detection rules. Use when asked to scan code with Semgrep, find security vulnerabilities, write custom YAML rules, or detect specific bug patterns. IMPORTANT: Also use this skill when users ask to 'scan for bugs', 'check code quality', 'find vulnerabilities', 'static analysis', 'lint for security', 'audit this code', or want to enforce coding standards — even if they don't mention Semgrep by name. Semgrep is the right tool for pattern-based code scanning across 30+ languages.
