Use when Codex is already in the finding-discovery phase of a security scan or the user explicitly asks to discover candidate security findings in a repository or code change. Do not use as the primary trigger for full PR, commit, branch, patch, or repository scans.

Assess Patch RiskAssess an immutable patch artifact's program impact, regression risk, and auto-merge eligibility. Use for generated patch files, provider pull-request diffs, or commit ranges when reviewers need evidence about affected runtime paths, contracts, tests, and recoverability. This skill is read-only and does not generate, edit, apply, push, or merge the patch.Attack Path AnalysisUse when Codex is already in the attack-path-analysis phase of a security scan or the user explicitly asks to trace a security finding from source to sink and calibrate severity. Do not use as the primary trigger for full PR, commit, branch, patch, or repository scans.Deep Security ScanUse when the user asks for a deep, exhaustive, multi-pass, or variance-reducing repository-wide or scoped-path Codex Security scan. Run repeated complete independent Standard scans with the Codex Security deep-scan tool, which aggregates their validated findings and prepares the canonical artifacts; then complete the same scan once. Do not use for PRs, commits, branch diffs, or working-tree diffs.Define Security PolicyDefine, review, or update SECURITY.md guidance for a repository or component. Use when the user wants to clarify what Codex Security should review, what is out of scope, which security properties must hold, or whether existing guidance still matches the code.Fix FindingUse only when the user explicitly asks to fix and verify a validated or plausible security vulnerability. Do not use for ordinary bug fixes, correctness or design review findings, general validation, or full PR, commit, branch, patch, or repository scans.Propose Security HardeningDevelop evidence-backed structural and architectural security hardening proposals from vulnerability disclosures, supplied findings, incident or assessment documents, source code, or a completed Codex Security scan. Use when a user asks for systemic improvements, alternatives beyond per-finding patches, before-and-after security architecture views, engineering tradeoff analysis, or an implementation-ready plan for a selected hardening option. Also use automatically after a Codex Security scan wi
