What security frameworks does this skill support?

The Security Explainer supports a wide range of industry standards including STRIDE, OWASP Top 10, PASTA, LINDDUN, MITRE ATT&CK, SANS/CWE Top 25, and DREAD.

Can it help me fix specific security vulnerabilities?

Yes. When explaining a specific finding, it provides a plain-language explanation of the risk, a step-by-step exploit scenario, and a code diff for remediation.

How does it use my codebase in explanations?

The skill uses Grep and Glob to search your local files for patterns relevant to the security concept being discussed, providing concrete examples of where these concepts apply to your actual code.

What is the difference between Level 1 and Level 2 explanations?

Level 1 (Framework) provides a broad overview of an entire system like STRIDE, while Level 2 (Category) dives deep into a specific type of threat, such as SQL Injection or Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF).
