Find Bugs

Review changes on this branch for bugs, security vulnerabilities, and code quality issues.

When to Use

• You need a review focused on bugs, security issues, or risky code changes.
• The task involves auditing the current branch diff rather than implementing new behavior.
• You want a structured review process with checklist-driven verification against changed files.

Phase 1: Complete Input Gathering

1. Establish the requested base and head as verified commit SHAs. Check the remote/default branch if needed; do not assume a stale local branch is current. Read the full branch diff with git diff "$BASE_SHA...$HEAD_SHA" --, using validated refs in separately quoted arguments. Include staged and unstaged changes when they are in scope; preserve the checkout.

2. If output is truncated, read each changed file individually until you have seen every changed line

3. List all files modified in this branch before proceeding

Phase 2: Attack Surface Mapping

For each changed file, identify and list:

• All user inputs (request params, headers, body, URL components)
• All database queries
• All authentication/authorization checks
• All session/state operations
• All external calls
• All cryptographic operations

Phase 3: Security Checklist (check EVERY item for EVERY file)

• [ ] Injection: SQL, command, template, header injection
• [ ] XSS: All outputs in templates properly escaped?
• [ ] Authentication: Auth checks on all protected operations?
• [ ] Authorization/IDOR: Access control verified, not just auth?
• [ ] CSRF: State-changing operations protected?
• [ ] Race conditions: TOCTOU in any read-then-write patterns?
• [ ] Session: Fixation, expiration, secure flags?
• [ ] Cryptography: Secure random, proper algorithms, no secrets in logs?
• [ ] Information disclosure: Error messages, logs, timing attacks?
• [ ] DoS: Unbounded operations, missing rate limits, resource exhaustion?
• [ ] Business logic: Edge cases, state machine violations, numeric overflow?

Phase 4: Verification

For each potential issue:

• Check if it's already handled elsewhere in the changed code
• Search for existing tests covering the scenario
• Read surrounding context to verify the issue is real

Phase 5: Pre-Conclusion Audit

Before finalizing, you MUST:

1. List every file you reviewed and confirm you read it completely

2. List each applicable checklist item as a finding, verified within the reviewed scope, not applicable, or unverified; absence of a finding is not proof of security

3. List any areas you could NOT fully verify and why

4. Only then provide your final findings

Output Format

Prioritize: security vulnerabilities > bugs > code quality

Skip: stylistic/formatting issues

For each issue:

• File:Line - Brief description
• Severity: Critical/High/Medium/Low
• Problem: What's wrong
• Evidence: Concrete trigger, reachable path and observed or reasoned impact; missing tests alone do not prove a bug
• Fix: Concrete suggestion
• References: OWASP, RFCs, or other standards if applicable

If you find nothing significant, say so - don't invent issues.

For a review-only request, report findings without changing code. An explicit combined review-and-fix request authorizes scoped repairs and verification; preserve the distinction between findings and completed fixes.

Limitations

• Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
• Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
• Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
