When your agent uses it

  • : hardcoded credential finder
  • Hardcoded credential finder Part of the Security Fundamentals skill category
  • Working with hardcoded credential finder functionality
  • With phrases like hardcoded credential finder

Example prompts

  • “hardcoded credential finder”
  • “hardcoded finder”
  • “hardcoded”
  • “/hardcoded-credential-finder”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Designed for Claude Code
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Grep, Bash(npm:*)

Workflow steps

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

  1. Provides step-by-step guidance for hardcoded credential finder
  2. Follows industry best practices and patterns
  3. Generates production-ready code and configurations
  4. Validates outputs against common standards

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cfae287. 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
    • Write
    • Grep
    • Bash(npm:*)

    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

    Designed for Claude Code

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Hardcoded Credential Finder loads about 602 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 100 tokens; SKILL.md has 197 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~100
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~602

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.
