sast-hardcodedsecrets

sast-hardcodedsecrets is an Application security skill for AI agents, published by utkusen in the sast-skills repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates sast-hardcodedsecrets F (45/100) and the safety scan rated it risky; the rating is based on static analysis only.

Detect hardcoded sensitive data (API keys, access tokens, private keys, passwords, etc.) in publicly accessible code — frontend JavaScript, mobile apps, client-side bundles, and HTML templates. Uses a three-phase approach: recon (find secret candidates), batched verify (confirm real secrets in public code paths, 3 candidates each), and merge (consolidate batch results). Requires sast/architecture.md (run sast-analysis first). Outputs findings to sast/hardcodedsecrets-results.md. Use when asked to find hardcoded secrets, leaked API keys, or exposed credentials.
