Security co-pilot that teaches Claude to approach code from a bug hunter's perspective.

Security skill that coaches Claude (and Cursor, Codex, Copilot) to review and write code from a bug hunter's perspective, built from 5+ years of bug bounty experience. Covers IDOR, XSS, CSRF, SSRF, SQL injection, XXE, path traversal, JWT/session handling, and GraphQL security, with framework-aware patterns and specific bypass-technique checklists. The author states it covers roughly 60-70% of common vulnerabilities; a more complete version lives at vibesec.sh.

Reviewer notes

Reviewed review. These are observations, not a security certification.

Security-focused. Coaches Claude to think like a bug hunter. Good complement to Trail of Bits.

Community tool. Source reviewed.

Things to check

Skill effectiveness depends on clear code context and prompt framing; it catches common patterns but is not a substitute for dedicated SAST tools or professional penetration testing. Integration requires Claude conversation setup rather than automated CI/CD pipeline deployment.
