From the author

Enforce output quality, evidence verification, and quality gates across security audits. Use this skill when you perform SAST, SCA, threat modeling, or security code reviews. Use this skill to verify code locations and taint traces for all findings. Use this skill to prevent the suppression of valid security findings. Use this skill to evaluate reports against quality thresholds (score ≥ 8/10) before delivery.

AutoGineer summary

Written by AutoGineer from the skill’s own files, not by the author

Audit Integrity provides a comprehensive methodology for conducting security assessments, including SAST, SCA, and threat modeling. It mandates a disciplined approach to analysis, requiring verified evidence for all findings and preventing the silent suppression of potential risks. By utilizing a series of modular protocols, the skill ensures that audits are thorough, intellectually honest, and meet a minimum quality threshold of 8/10 before final delivery.

What it does

  • Enforces a mandatory second-pass critique to verify evidence and taint traces.
  • Provides an anti-rationalization guard to prevent the dismissal of valid security findings.
  • Implements a quality gate rubric to score reports against a minimum threshold.
  • Standardizes the handling of tool failures and ambiguous project scopes.
  • Facilitates continuous improvement through a structured post-audit reflection system.
  • Ensures all security findings are backed by explicit code evidence or architectural references.

When to use it

  • When performing security code reviews or static analysis (SAST).
  • During threat modeling exercises to ensure comprehensive coverage.
  • When you need to validate the integrity of a security report before final delivery.
  • When you want to ensure that no security findings are suppressed without documented justification.
  • When you need to improve the consistency and quality of your security audit outputs.

Advantages

  • Reduces the risk of false negatives by prohibiting silent suppression of findings.
  • Increases report credibility through mandatory evidence-based justifications.
  • Ensures consistent audit quality via a standardized scoring rubric.
  • Provides clear protocols for handling common pitfalls like tool errors or scope ambiguity.
  • Promotes long-term learning by capturing security memories and lessons learned.

Usage examples

“Perform a security audit on this repository and apply the Audit Integrity skill.”
The agent will initiate the audit, starting with the clarification protocol if needed, and follow the mandatory execution flow to ensure all findings are verified and the final report meets the 8/10 quality gate.
“I think this finding is a false positive, can we ignore it?”
The agent will consult the anti-rationalization guard, requiring you to document the rationale for the false positive while ensuring the finding is still included in the report rather than silently suppressed.

Audit Integrity Skill

Enforce output quality, intellectual honesty, and continuous improvement across security audits and code reviews.

When to Use

  • Perform security analyses, threat models, code reviews, or quality audits.

  • Validate that every finding has verified code evidence and taint flow.

  • Prevent the suppression or rationalization of security findings.

  • Evaluate draft reports against the quality gate threshold (score ≥ 8/10).

  • Record lessons learned and security memories after you complete a scan.

Components

This skill provides 7 modular capabilities in the references/ directory. Load each file when you reach its execution phase:

ComponentReference FilePurpose
Clarification Protocolreferences/clarification-protocol.mdAsk a maximum of 2 targeted questions when scope is not clear
Anti-Rationalization Guardreferences/anti-rationalization-guard.mdProhibited rationalizations and mandatory responses for findings
Self-Critique Loopreferences/self-critique-loop.mdMandatory second pass to verify evidence and coverage
Retry Protocolreferences/retry-protocol.mdTool failure and empty search handling: retry once, then document
Non-Negotiable Behaviorsreferences/non-negotiable-behaviors.mdMandatory rules: do not fabricate, cite evidence, report gaps
Self-Reflection Quality Gatereferences/self-reflection-quality-gate.mdScoring rubric (1–10 scale) with a minimum threshold of 8
Self-Learning Systemreferences/self-learning-system.mdTemplates and rules for lessons and security memories

Execution Flow

Load reference files as you reach each phase:

  1. Before analysis: If scope or policy is not clear, read references/clarification-protocol.md. Ask a maximum of 2 targeted questions.

  2. During analysis: Follow references/non-negotiable-behaviors.md. At each triage decision, consult references/anti-rationalization-guard.md.

  3. On tool or search failure: Follow references/retry-protocol.md. Do not assume code is secure without verification.

  4. After initial analysis: Complete a second pass with the checklist in references/self-critique-loop.md. Verify taint traces and manifest coverage.

  5. Before delivery: Score the draft report using references/self-reflection-quality-gate.md. All categories must score ≥ 8.

  6. Final delivery: Record lessons and memories using references/self-learning-system.md.

Self-Reflection Quality Gate

After you complete the analysis, score the output across domain categories on a 1–10 scale.

Threshold: Every category must score ≥ 8 to pass. If any category scores < 8, resolve the gaps before you deliver the report (maximum 2 rework iterations).

Core Scoring Rubric (Universal)

CategoryScore 9–10Score 7–8Score 5–6Score 1–4
CompletenessAll phases, categories, boundaries, and checklists evaluated with explicit evidenceMinor omissions that do not affect the risk profileNoticeable gaps in coverage; entire sections omittedSuperficial pass; major sections missing
AccuracyPrecise file:line references, confirmed CVE IDs, verified taint flows, correct CWE mappingsMinor version ambiguity or indirect references; core findings correctPlausible findings with unverified details or questionable mappingsFabricated references, wrong CWE mappings, or hallucinated CVEs
ActionabilityConcrete remediation code, exact package upgrade targets, step-by-step guidanceClear direction but requires human adjustmentHigh-level advice without code or version targetsGeneric platitudes ("sanitize inputs", "keep packages updated")
ConsistencyRisk ratings match evidence, framework verdicts align with findings, formatting uniformMinor formatting or taxonomy inconsistenciesSeverity ratings conflict with impact descriptionsContradictory findings or incompatible verdicts
Evidence RigorEvery claim backed by code, manifest, trace, or threat model elementMost findings backed; some secondary claims lack citationsAssertions made without code citationsSpeculative findings with zero code or manifest backing

Scoring Threshold

Final ScoreAction
All categories ≥ 8PASS — Proceed to final delivery
Any category < 8 (attempt 1)REWORK — Address deficiencies and re-score
Any category < 8 (attempt 2)REWORK — Final attempt to resolve gaps
Any category < 8 (attempt 3)FLAG & DELIVER — Deliver with explicit quality gap disclosure to user
