What it does

Coderabbit Security Basics is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Configure and audit security review capabilities as one layer in a defense-in-depth pull-request program. Use when this operator task needs a current, evidence-backed CodeRabbit workflow. Trigger with "secure CodeRabbit reviews".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/official-docs.md`). Compatibility notes: Requires current CodeRabbit documentation and approved access for any live organization, repository, billing, or API change

It sits in Security, covering Security review, Secure coding and Pull requests. The repository describes itself as: Model-agnostic agent-skills platform with a harness-free canonical layer, verified adapters, and the ccpi package manager. Explore at tonsofskills.com. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • This operator task needs a current
  • Evidence-backed CodeRabbit workflow
  • With secure CodeRabbit reviews

Example prompts

  • “secure CodeRabbit reviews”
  • “/coderabbit-security-basics”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Requires current CodeRabbit documentation and approved access for any live organization, repository, billing, or API change
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Glob, Grep, Write, Edit

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Classify threat model, sensitive paths, languages, builds, checks, and requirements.
  2. Map risks to supported tools, guidance, external gates, or manual controls.
  3. Configure supported layers and retain provider security checks.
  4. Test safe seeded fixtures, record gaps, and define escalation.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 23ea8d4. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Glob
    • Grep
    • Write
    • Edit

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    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.

  • Compatibility

    Requires current CodeRabbit documentation and approved access for any live organization, repository, billing, or API change

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Coderabbit Security Basics loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.4k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 64 tokens; SKILL.md has 470 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~64
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
~1.4k

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 passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

CodeRabbit Security Controls

Overview

Use documented CodeRabbit Security and tools while retaining independent scanners and human review. AI findings cannot prove absence of vulnerabilities.

Prerequisites

  • Identify the CodeRabbit organization, Git provider, repository, plan, and accountable owner.
  • Read references/official-docs.md and re-check any time-sensitive contract before execution.
  • Use synthetic or read-only evidence until the approval boundary is satisfied.
  • Preserve the repository's independent CI, security, and human-review requirements.

Current Contract

  • CodeRabbit documents repo security scanning and security Change Stack views.
  • The tool catalog includes static, secret, dependency, and infrastructure analyzers.
  • CodeRabbit can ingest GitHub Checks.
  • SkillSpector scans agent skills and MCP configuration.

Authentication

Treat Git-provider sessions, CodeRabbit web sessions, CLI credentials, and CodeRabbit API keys as separate credentials. Use only an already-approved session or secret-manager reference, never print a secret, and do not place credentials in .coderabbit.yaml, source files, logs, or deliverables.

Instructions

  1. Classify threat model, sensitive paths, languages, builds, checks, and requirements.

  2. Map risks to supported tools, guidance, external gates, or manual controls.

  3. Configure supported layers and retain provider security checks.

  4. Test safe seeded fixtures, record gaps, and define escalation.

Tool Discipline

  • Use Glob to locate candidate configuration and evidence files without widening scope.
  • Use Grep to find relevant fields, commands, identifiers, and stale claims.
  • Use Read to inspect the smallest required files and authoritative evidence.
  • Use Write only for a new approved local draft or evidence artifact.
  • Use Edit only for a bounded approved change whose rollback is known.
  • Do not use these file tools as a substitute for authenticated CodeRabbit or provider operations.

Approval Boundaries

Require security approval before disabling tools, excluding sensitive paths, or accepting high-risk findings. Keep analysis and drafts local until approval is explicit, and record who approved the action and its scope.

Output

A threat-control matrix, patch, independent-gate inventory, fixture evidence, gaps, and escalation. Include source dates, unknowns, and the exact boundary between observed fact and recommendation.

Error Handling

ConditionResponse
Current contract is unclear or docs disagreeStop mutation, cite both sources, and request owner resolution.
Required access or approval is missingProduce a draft and evidence plan only.
Validation or pilot behavior differs from expectationRestore the prior state and retain the failed evidence.
Output contains secrets or private codeStop, quarantine the artifact, redact it, and notify the data owner.

Examples

Example 1

Enable secret and IaC tools while keeping provider scanning.

Example 2

Test SkillSpector with a synthetic unsafe MCP fixture.

Validation

  • Confirm every claim against the dated sources in references/official-docs.md.
  • Verify the requested scope, owner, approval, happy path, failure path, and rollback.
  • Re-read the effective configuration or provider state after any approved change.
  • Report unsupported fields, undocumented endpoints, and unverified assumptions as failures.
