Curated third-party skill source. Run external-skill-auditor before repo promotion.

Quick Start

Install:

npx skills add trailofbits/skills --skill differential-review --skill agentic-actions-auditor --skill variant-analysis --skill insecure-defaults --skill supply-chain-risk-auditor --skill modern-python -y -g -a antigravity claude-code codex crush cursor gemini-cli github-copilot grok opencode

Use: /variant-analysis

Works with Claude Code, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, and other agentskills.io-compatible agents.

Curated external (hand-maintained)

Composed compose-external-wave-13 using authoring SSOT (docs/src/authoring/skills/variant-analysis.mdx) + research. Do not run wagents docs generate on this file (HAND-MAINTAINED sentinel). Run external-skill-auditor before using in production or promoting.

What It Does

5-step systematic variant analysis to find similar vulns/bugs from a seed: 1) understand root cause 2) exact match pattern 3) identify abstractions 4) iteratively generalize 5) analyze/triage. Includes tool guidance (rg/Semgrep/CodeQL), pitfalls, ready CodeQL/Semgrep templates (py,js,java,go,c++). Trail of Bits.

Harness Coverage

Targets verified harnesses: antigravity, claude-code, codex, crush, cursor, gemini-cli, github-copilot, grok, opencode.

Portable multi-harness install command:

npx skills add trailofbits/skills --skill differential-review --skill agentic-actions-auditor --skill variant-analysis --skill insecure-defaults --skill supply-chain-risk-auditor --skill modern-python -y -g -a antigravity claude-code codex crush cursor gemini-cli github-copilot grok opencode
