Run a read-only security review against a chosen directory.

Rules

• Treat this skill as read-only.
• Do not use it to modify files automatically.
• Pass --target when auditing something other than the current directory.
• Use --format json for machine-readable output; stdout will contain pure JSON only.
• Use --strict when you want a non-zero exit on HIGH findings in CI.
• Use --exclude-dir to skip bulky or irrelevant directories in mixed repos.
• Use --allow-port to suppress expected configured/published ports in local or staged environments.
• This version uses file inspection only and does not invoke external binaries such as git, ss, or netstat.
• Expect limited permission analysis on Windows; Unix mode-bit checks only run on Unix-like systems.

Commands

Quick audit of current directory

node skills/portable-deployment-audit/scripts/audit.cjs --target .

Audit another directory

node skills/portable-deployment-audit/scripts/audit.cjs --target /path/to/project

JSON report

node skills/portable-deployment-audit/scripts/audit.cjs --target . --format json > audit-report.json

CI-style run

node skills/portable-deployment-audit/scripts/audit.cjs --target . --format json --strict

Ignore expected noise

node skills/portable-deployment-audit/scripts/audit.cjs --target . --exclude-dir vendor,tmp --allow-port 3000,8080

Specific checks only

node skills/portable-deployment-audit/scripts/audit.cjs --target . --check credentials,configs
node skills/portable-deployment-audit/scripts/audit.cjs --target . --ports
node skills/portable-deployment-audit/scripts/audit.cjs --target . --docker

Checks

• credentials: scan env/config/code files for likely secrets and hardcoded credentials
• ports: inspect explicit port exposure hints from config and compose files, respect --allow-port, and warn more strongly on commonly exposed service ports
• configs: flag risky debug logging, wildcard CORS, and obvious placeholder/default secrets
• permissions: inspect Unix mode bits on sensitive files; Windows reports limitations instead of guessing
• docker: inspect Dockerfile and compose files for root/privileged runtime, host networking, published ports, missing HEALTHCHECK, and floating tags
• git: flag repository exposure indicators such as exposed .git directories and missing .gitignore

Notes

• --fix is intentionally disabled in this version.
• Findings are advisory and should be reviewed before making changes.
• Text output includes short remediation recommendations derived from the findings.
• The script performs file inspection only; no shell commands or external binaries are executed.
• For automation, prefer --format json and parse the structured report.
