About This Project
This collection provides specialized AI capabilities designed to enhance security research and code auditing workflows within Claude Code. Built by Trail of Bits, a leading security firm, these skills transform Claude into a powerful assistant for identifying vulnerabilities, analyzing code patterns, and conducting systematic security reviews.
The project bridges the gap between AI assistance and professional security practices by offering pre-built capabilities that understand common vulnerability patterns, attack vectors, and secure coding principles. Rather than starting from scratch, security researchers can leverage these battle-tested skills to accelerate their audit processes and maintain consistency across reviews.
Each skill is crafted to handle specific security tasksβfrom analyzing smart contracts and detecting memory safety issues to reviewing authentication flows and identifying injection vulnerabilities. The modular design allows teams to integrate these capabilities into existing security workflows, whether conducting penetration tests, performing code reviews, or researching new attack techniques.
By combining Trail of Bits' security expertise with Claude's AI capabilities, this toolkit empowers both seasoned security professionals and development teams to elevate their security posture through intelligent, automated assistance.
