What it does

Wp Security Review is an agent skill from jorgerosal/wordpress-skills. WordPress security code review for Codex. Use when reviewing themes, plugins, or custom WordPress code for XSS, SQL injection, CSRF, auth gaps, unsafe uploads, dangerous functions, or insecure REST and AJAX handlers.

Its SKILL.md is about 490 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Security, covering Web application vulnerabilities and Security review. It works with WordPress. The repository describes itself as: ✅ 🎉 Claude skills and Codex skills for Wordpress development❗️. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Reviewing themes
  • Custom WordPress code for XSS
  • Dangerous functions
  • Insecure REST and AJAX handlers

Example prompts

  • “/wp-security-review”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Identify public-facing, admin-only, AJAX, REST, and upload surfaces.
  2. Check critical exploit paths first: SQL injection, public XSS, missing nonces on state-changing actions, and unsafe uploads.
  3. Validate WordPress-specific security patterns such as nonce checks, capability checks, sanitization, and late escaping.
  4. Load only the relevant reference docs from the shared security references.
  5. Report findings with severity, file references, exploit impact, and a safe fix pattern.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8c96442. 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

    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.

Context cost

Wp Security Review loads about 490 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 59 tokens; SKILL.md has 183 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~59
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~490

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.

Codex WordPress Security Review

Purpose

Use this skill when Codex should audit WordPress code for exploitable security issues and produce findings with file references, severity, and direct remediation guidance.

Focus Areas

  • XSS from missing output escaping
  • SQL injection from unprepared database access
  • CSRF gaps in forms, AJAX handlers, and state-changing flows
  • Missing capability checks and authorization mistakes
  • Unsafe file uploads and dangerous PHP functions
  • REST and AJAX endpoints with weak permission controls

Workflow

  1. Identify public-facing, admin-only, AJAX, REST, and upload surfaces.
  2. Check critical exploit paths first: SQL injection, public XSS, missing nonces on state-changing actions, and unsafe uploads.
  3. Validate WordPress-specific security patterns such as nonce checks, capability checks, sanitization, and late escaping.
  4. Load only the relevant reference docs from the shared security references.
  5. Report findings with severity, file references, exploit impact, and a safe fix pattern.

Reference Files

Load only the references you need from:

  • ../../claude-skills/wp-security-review/references/vulnerability-patterns.md
  • ../../claude-skills/wp-security-review/references/nonce-csrf-guide.md
  • ../../claude-skills/wp-security-review/references/auth-patterns.md
  • ../../claude-skills/wp-security-review/references/escaping-guide.md
  • ../../claude-skills/wp-security-review/references/sanitization-guide.md

Output

  • Use CRITICAL, WARNING, and INFO
  • Include file references and affected surface area
  • Name the WordPress security control that is missing or misused
  • Recommend a secure replacement pattern
