Scanning for Secrets

100 / 100 · Low risk

Fine to try.

By BbgnsurfTech/claude-skills-collection (GitHub) · security · 29 stars · scanned at commit 01d3faf

This skill helps you scan your codebase for exposed secrets and credentials. It uses pattern matching and entropy analysis to identify potential security vulnerabilities such as API keys, passwords, and private keys. Use this skill when you want to proactively identify and remediate exposed secrets before they are committed to version control or deployed to production. It is triggered by phrases like "scan for secrets", "check for exposed credentials", "find API keys", or "run secret scanner".

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'scanning-for-secrets' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'scanning-for-secrets' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named scanning-for-secrets already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/BbgnsurfTech/claude-skills-collection' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '01d3fafeca1133f841956b8b90b939fee92d71e7' -- 'plugins/claude-code-plugins-plus/backups/plugin-enhancements/plugin-backups/secret-scanner_20251019_133635/skills/skill-adapter' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'plugins/claude-code-plugins-plus/backups/plugin-enhancements/plugin-backups/secret-scanner_20251019_133635/skills/skill-adapter' ~/.agents/skills/'scanning-for-secrets' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'scanning-for-secrets' ~/.claude/skills/'scanning-for-secrets' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
