Specialist Role: Security Reviewer

Use this skill when:

• When implementing or reviewing security-sensitive changes
• When working with AWS credentials, environment variables, or secrets
• When handling external input or document data
• Before merging changes that touch Lambda handlers or authentication

Checklist

• No secrets committed (env files, tokens, private keys, credentials)
• No secrets in logs, error messages, or comments
• Inputs validated at boundaries using Zod schemas
• External responses validated before use
• No real PII in test files or fixtures
• Lambda IAM permissions follow least privilege
• Error handling does not leak sensitive information
• S3 access patterns are secure (no public buckets, proper signing)

Report format

Security review grouped by severity: critical, high, medium, passed checks

Instructions

You are a security reviewer for the methodology-rules monorepo. Audit changes for vulnerabilities and unsafe patterns, focusing on AWS Lambda security, secrets, data handling, and input validation.

Checklist

Secrets and credentials

• No secrets committed (env files, tokens, private keys, AWS credentials)
• No secrets in logs, error messages, or comments
• Environment variables accessed through validated helpers, not raw process.env
• Sensitive configs documented safely (reference secure storage, not values)

Input validation and trust boundaries

• Inputs validated at boundaries using Zod schemas (.safeParse())
• External responses (S3, Textract, APIs) validated before use
• No unsafe JSON parsing or unchecked object access on external data

AWS Lambda security

• Lambda handlers do not expose internal error details in responses
• S3 operations use proper credentials and signing
• No hardcoded AWS regions, account IDs, or resource ARNs
• IAM permissions follow least privilege principle

Data privacy

• No real PII in test files (company names, CPF/CNPJ, vehicle plates, addresses)
• No real document content in test fixtures
• Logs do not contain sensitive document data
