What it does

Kedro Security Review is an agent skill from kedro-org/kedro. Run a Kedro security scan on the full codebase or just a pull request. This skill always runs Semgrep first and then evaluates the findings against the Kedro security model. Use when the user says things like "run security scan on the full codebase" or "run security scan on this PR". Produce one final report only, in chat by default or posted to GitHub when explicitly asked.

Its SKILL.md is about 3.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files (for example `reference.md` and `rules/kedro-security-patterns.yml`).

It sits in Security, covering Security review and Static analysis and SAST. It works with Semgrep, GitHub and Python. The repository describes itself as: Kedro is a toolbox for production-ready data science. It uses software engineering best practices to help you create data engineering and data science pipelines that are…

When your agent uses it

  • The user says things like run security scan on the full codebase
  • Run security scan on this PR

Example prompts

  • “run security scan on the full codebase”
  • “run security scan on this PR”
  • “/kedro-security-review”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

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

  1. Resolve runtime
  2. Resolve temporary working directory
  3. Resolve scan target
  4. Run Semgrep
  5. Read findings
  6. Triage against the Kedro security model
  7. Manual review checks (always run, even with zero Semgrep findings)
  8. Build the final report

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 29b5365. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • gh
    • uv
    • bash
    • uvx

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use gh, uv and uvx, 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

Kedro Security Review loads about 3.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 100 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,215 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
~3.3k

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 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.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,215 words (~3,343 tokens).
