What it does

A phased program for auditing and hardening a production web app. Phases are ordered so that cheap read-only work happens before anything that touches production, and so findings arrive in the order a small team can actually fix them.

What it can touch

  • Includes 251 scripts

    Your AI can run these when the skill is used — on your computer in a coding tool (which asks first unless you have told it not to), or in the AI’s own sandbox in Claude and ChatGPT.

    How we know

    Found in the skill’s folder: .github/scripts/run-self-audit.mjs, examples/insecure-demo/src/export-report.mjs, examples/insecure-demo/test-functional.mjs, examples/quickstart/after/app/api/health/route.ts….

  • Uses terminal commands

    It shows your AI commands to run. In a coding agent that means your terminal; in a chat app it usually can’t.

    How we know

    The SKILL.md contains shell code blocks.

  • Reads credentials or your environment, and sends data over the internet

    Files like these hold passwords and keys. A skill rarely needs them, and reading them while also sending data out is how secrets get stolen.

    How we know

    scripts/crawl-surface-audit.mjs line 245: “'/.env', '/.git/config', '/.git/HEAD', '/.aws/credentials', '/.DS_Store', → const res = await http.request(url, {”. Read 2026-10-05, commit 4f03cfc.

  • 9 smaller things worth knowing

    Tells your AI to hide what it does from you; Contains commands that delete or overwrite; Refers to a credentials file (SSH keys, cloud logins, tokens); Contacts a server by raw IP address. Usually legitimate — listed so nothing is hidden.

Add it to your AI

Partly. Upload it in Claude’s settings — the instructions work; the scripts need the full folder.

  1. Built in your browser from the SKILL.md on GitHub — nothing passes through Launch7.

  2. In Claude, open Customize → Skills, press +, then Create skill → Upload a skill, and choose the .zip.

  3. Make sure code execution is switched on (Settings → Capabilities). Skills need it.

  4. Start a new chat and ask for the job in your own words — Claude picks the skill up when it fits.

This skill ships 251 scripts beside its instructions. The download here is the SKILL.md alone — enough for the instructions, not for the parts that run code. Use the command route, or take the full folder from the repository.

How Claude does this: support.claude.com · checked 28 Sep 2026 · “Supported” means documented by the vendor; Launch7 has not run it end to end

Worth knowing

  • It can only read. Nothing it does changes anything on the other side.
