## What it does

This skill reviews a Lightning Web Component bundle across `.js`, `.ts`, `.html`, `.css`, and `.js-meta.xml` files. It looks for risky DOM APIs such as `eval`, `Function`, `document.write`, `innerHTML`, script creation, assignments to `window` or `globalThis`, and unsafe URL schemes.

In `review` mode, it returns severity-ranked findings with code-level remediations. In `score` mode, it emits SARIF 2.1.0 JSON using rule IDs from `lws-001` through `lws-023b`, without modifying the code.

The component path must be under `modules/…`, with access to its bundle files. It also requires `jq` `>=1.6` and `python3` `>=3.8`; check the local environment before running the review.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add forcedotcom/sf-skills --skill experience-lwc-security-validate -a claude-code
```

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

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add forcedotcom/sf-skills --skill experience-lwc-security-validate -a codex
```

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

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add forcedotcom/sf-skills --skill experience-lwc-security-validate -a cursor
```

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

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install forcedotcom/sf-skills experience-lwc-security-validate
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/experience-lwc-security-validate/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add forcedotcom/sf-skills --skill experience-lwc-security-validate -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/forcedotcom/sf-skills --path skills/experience-lwc-security-validate
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

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

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add forcedotcom/sf-skills --skill experience-lwc-security-validate -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

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

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/forcedotcom/sf-skills/tree/HEAD/skills/experience-lwc-security-validate/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- review an LWC bundle for blocked DOM APIs
- detect unsafe `window` and `globalThis` assignments
- emit SARIF 2.1.0 findings for CI
- inspect templates for `lwc:inner-html` and `srcdoc`
- spot overly broad `.js-meta.xml` settings

## Example prompts
- Review the LWC in `modules/...` for LWS compliance and suggest code fixes.
- Score the component in `modules/...` and emit SARIF without changing code.
- Check this LWC for `eval`, `innerHTML`, and `document.write`.

description: "Use this skill as THE specialized Lightning Web Security (LWS) validator for a Lightning Web Component bundle (`.js`, `.ts`, `.html`, `.css`, `.js-meta.xml`) — the canonical LWS/Product-Security review for LWCs, NOT a generic code-security pass.

TRIGGER when the user asks to review, audit, or check an LWC component for LWS compliance issues and recommend fixes, score a component's LWS/security compliance, find dangerous DOM APIs or blocked sinks (`eval`, `Function`, `document.write`, `innerHTML`, `document.createElement('script')`, global-scope assignment to `window`/`globalThis`, unsafe URL schemes), or emit a SARIF security report. DO NOT TRIGGER for generic non-LWC security review, for building a new LWC (use experience-lwc-generate), accessibility (WCAG 2.2), RTL/i18n, or Apex/Aura/server-side review."

# Reviewing LWS Security

Run a structured Lightning Web Security (LWS) and Product Security compliance pass over a Lightning Web Component. Two output modes:

- **Review mode** (default) — severity-ranked findings + applied code fixes.
- **Score mode** — SARIF 2.1.0 JSON report keyed by the LWS rule catalog (`lws-001`…`lws-023b`) for downstream gating, eval scoring, or CI ingest.

Both modes use the same detection rules from the references; only the output format differs.

## When to Use

- The user asks for a "security review", "LWS check", "pre-ship security audit", or "compliance pass" on a specific LWC → review mode.
- The user asks to "score" a component's security or wants machine-readable findings to feed a gate or eval → score mode.
- Preparing a component for release and needing a unified security report.
- After implementing a fix, to verify no regression in security posture.

Do NOT use this skill for:
- Building new components (use `experience-lwc-generate`).
- Accessibility (apply WCAG 2.2 separately) or RTL review — out of scope.
- Gating a fix behind a feature flag (apply feature-flag gating after fixes land).
- Non-LWC security review (Apex, Aura, server-side) — out of scope.

## Prerequisites

- Component path (LWC bundle under `modules/…`).
- Access to the component's JS/TS, HTML templates, CSS, and `.js-meta.xml`.
