## What it does

This skill directs your coding assistant to act as a DevSecOps and infrastructure security engineer. It focuses on validating CIS benchmark compliance and setting up automated secrets workflows.

The agent uses file manipulation tools like `Read` and `MultiEdit`, standard shell commands via `Bash`, and security utilities such as `nmap` and `metasploit`. These external binaries must be available in your system path, or network scanning and penetration testing tasks will fail.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add Tony363/SuperClaude --skill agent-security-engineer -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/agent-security-engineer/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/agent-security-engineer/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add Tony363/SuperClaude --skill agent-security-engineer -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/agent-security-engineer/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add Tony363/SuperClaude --skill agent-security-engineer -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/agent-security-engineer/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install Tony363/SuperClaude agent-security-engineer
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/agent-security-engineer/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add Tony363/SuperClaude --skill agent-security-engineer -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/Tony363/SuperClaude --path .claude/skills/agent-security-engineer
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/agent-security-engineer/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add Tony363/SuperClaude --skill agent-security-engineer -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills
