Responds when an API key was committed to a public repo and takedown failed: revoke first, because takedown cannot unring the bell. Use when a key is exposed in a public repo. Not for private-repo leaks.
Fixes a patch PR whose CI fails on the agent's own scanner gate because the fix pulled in a new CVE through a transitive dependency. Use it when a security bump introduces a different vulnerability and the pipeline blocks the merge. Key trigger: the scanner gate reports a CVE in a package you did not directly change.
Fixes nondeterministic SBOM hashes that make drift detectors report phantom changes on every build. Use it when two SBOMs generated from identical source produce different hashes in a CVE triage pipeline. Key trigger: the diff between consecutive SBOMs shows only timestamp, serial number, or ordering changes, never re…
Cuts grype's devDependency and test-fixture noise by scoping scans to production packages and adding ignore rules. Use when a vuln agent's severity queue is flooded with findings in devDependencies, test fixtures, or build-only packages. Key trigger: most findings reference packages that never ship to production.
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - pip index was slow and the agent's resolve timed out at 300s; it logged the package as "unresolvable" instead of... - [renovate grouped 12 unrelated major bumps into one PR - the agent's grouping pat…

Fixes VEX statements that flip from not_affected to affected when the SBOM generator changes, by keying VEX on canonical package URLs instead of tool-specific names and pinning one generator per pipeline. Use it after swapping SBOM tools. Key trigger: VEX verdicts change with no code or advisory change, right after an…
