AC secrets-audit

Scan projects and codebases for exposed secrets, API keys, tokens, passwords, and sensitive credentials. Detects hardcoded secrets in source code, config files, environment files, and git history. Use when asked to audit a project for secrets, check for exposed credentials, scan for API keys, find hardcoded passwords, review security of a codebase, check for leaked tokens, audit .env files, or verify no secrets are committed. Triggers on "secrets audit", "scan for secrets", "find exposed keys", "check for credentials", "security scan", "leaked secrets", "hardcoded passwords", "API key exposure", "credential check".

How to improve

    For the model run — optional
    • 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.

    Process rating: all ten parameters 55/100

    • 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
    • 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
    • 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
    • 30Running it twice. 11 mutating operations with no state check
    • 55Failures and branches. 1 branches
    • 60Tools and files. Uses tools (bash) that frontmatter does not declare
    • 70When it triggers. States when to use, but not when not to
    • 100Steps. 41 steps
    • 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
    • 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 981 tokens

    Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.

    Quality signals

    • +4Description does not say when NOT to use the skill (false activations)
    • +3Output format is not stated: the model decides each time
    • -5TODO / placeholder text left in the skill
    • +1No license
    • +2Single-language instructions
    • +5Description quotes 9 example trigger phrases
    • +3Description length 622: enough signal without eating the budget

    Quality base 70; lint remarks subtract, signals add up to 100. Result: 91.

    External checks

    ClawHub: clean
    This skill is a disclosed local secrets scanner, but its reports and optional git-history checks can expose sensitive credential material if used too broadly.
