opsward.security#

Security advisories (opsward#17, gap 5): “valid” is not “safe to ship”.

An advisory dimension, modelled on the OWASP Top 10 for agentic applications: patterns in a project’s agent config that over-grant tools, run unpinned or remote code, try to override the agent’s instructions, or leak a secret. Advisories are reported, never scored: the checks are heuristics, so they must not move a grade or fail a gate. Each one names the file (repo-relative), the risk and what to do.
