AI Agent Skill: Track & Audit Security Debt in Code

AI Agent Skill: Track & Audit Security Debt in Code

This AI agent skill assists development teams by identifying and managing security debt markers within their codebase. It allows developers to track deliberate security trade-offs, ensuring these are recorded, auditable, and reviewed for compliance.

What this skill does

• Identifies and lists all security debt markers in the codebase, providing a clear view of security risks that have been accepted consciously.
• Records security decisions with a sec-debt marker as a comment directly on or above the relevant code line, ensuring accuracy and context.
• Operates in strict and hardened modes to manage permission levels: in strict mode, markers require human approval to convert a deny action into an ask; in hardened mode, the deny stands until mode is lowered.
• Audits all waivers by checking for corresponding human approvals, flagging unapproved markers as evasion risks.
• Provides security audit capabilities by listing outstanding and approved sec-debt markers through command-line execution.

Who it is for

• Software developers and engineers working with AI code agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex.
• Development teams aiming to manage and audit their security obligations within their software projects.
• Security professionals tasked with reviewing and approving security trade-offs in coding practices.

Use cases

• A developer needs to document a temporary security acceptance for a network-isolated internal admin tool, using a sec-debt marker.
• A security review team audits the codebase to ensure all security waivers are properly authorized and logged.
• A software development team uses this tool regularly to maintain an overview of their ongoing security debts, ensuring no silent trade-offs go unnoticed.

Technical details

• Incorporates the ai-agent-security, aiapplication, and sec-debt tool capabilities.
• Functions via command-line tools, running scripts to scan codebases and cross-check against approval logs.
• Relies on shell scripts (e.g., sh "$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT/hooks/peephole.sh" debt) for execution of security debt audits.

For authorised security testing, defensive research, and educational use only.
