BF security-pen-testing
Use when the user asks to perform security audits, penetration testing, vulnerability scanning, OWASP Top 10 checks, or offensive security assessments. Covers static analysis, dependency scanning, secret detection, API security testing, and pen test report generation.

As a process F 51/100 · Will not run — References files that are not bundled: ../senior-secops/SKILL.md, ../senior-security/SKILL.md, engineering/skills/dependency-auditor/SKILL.md
How to improve
- The text references files that are not there: add them or drop the references.
- Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
- A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.
