Comprehensive SecOps skill for application security, vulnerability management, compliance, and secure development practices.

  • Works in 6 steps: Security Scanner → Vulnerability Assessor → Compliance Checker → …
  • Implementing security controls
  • SKILL.md covers Quick Start, Core Capabilities, Reference Documentation and Tech Stack, plus 5 more sections
  • Runs Python scripts from its folder; calls python, npm and pip

What it does

Senior Secops is an agent skill from davila7/claude-code-templates. Comprehensive SecOps skill for application security, vulnerability management, compliance, and secure development practices. Includes security scanning, vulnerability assessment, compliance checking, and security automation. Use when implementing security controls, conducting security audits, responding to vulnerabilities, or ensuring compliance requirements.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 8 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `references/compliance_requirements.md`, `references/security_standards.md` and `references/vulnerability_management_guide.md`).

It sits in Security, covering Vulnerability scanning and Security review. The repository describes itself as: CLI tool for configuring and monitoring Claude Code. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Implementing security controls
  • Conducting security audits
  • Responding to vulnerabilities
  • Ensuring compliance requirements

Example prompts

  • “/senior-secops”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • Node.js
  • Docker

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Security Scanner
  2. Vulnerability Assessor
  3. Compliance Checker
  4. Setup and Configuration
  5. Run Quality Checks
  6. Implement Best Practices

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 46b4d8b. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 3 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python
    • npm
    • pip
    • docker
    • docker-compose
    • kubectl

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm, pip, docker and kubectl, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Senior Secops loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 94 tokens; SKILL.md has 298 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~94
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~2.3k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:126
    cp .env.example .env

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.
