Target: $ARGUMENTS
If no target path is given above, review the entire codebase.
Examine all the code in our application.
Identify and analyze code duplication in our project. Look for similar looking functions.
Check for:
EXACT DUPLICATES
NEAR DUPLICATES
STRUCTURAL DUPLICATES
DATA DUPLICATION
For each duplication found:
In the audit report, recommend a utilities module structure for common functions, including suggested file layout and function groupings.
A structured finding report
A scale of 1/10 on how important each finding is
Remediation: precise code-level fix or config change (snippets welcome) if possible
Be concrete and cite exact code locations and identifiers.
Prefer minimal, drop-in fix snippets over prose.
Do not invent files or functions that aren’t present; if context is missing, mark as Unable to verify and say what code would prove it.
Write this into a markdown file and place it in the audits/ folder.
Based on SOC occupation classification
Reviews API and infrastructure security configuration, including endpoints, headers, transport, and deployment settings. Use when auditing API or infrastructure hardening.
Conducts a comprehensive authentication security review covering login, sessions, tokens, and credential handling. Use when auditing authentication for vulnerabilities.
Analyzes authorization and access-control logic across routes and resources for privilege and enforcement flaws. Use when auditing authorization, RBAC, or access control.
Analyzes business logic for security flaws such as workflow bypasses, race conditions, and abuse cases. Use when reviewing application logic for exploitable behavior.
Analyzes code complexity and adherence to quality standards, flagging overly complex functions and metric outliers. Use when auditing maintainability, cyclomatic complexity, or coding-standard compliance.
Aggregates findings from the other security audits into one prioritized security report. Use after running individual security reviews to produce a consolidated report.
