What is finding-discovery Skill?
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. Published by openai in plugins. This profile combines repository metadata with install, compatibility, and usage signals so developers can quickly decide whether it fits their agent workflow before opening the source repository.
Automated repository signals based on public metadata such as recency, license, installation evidence, and adoption. These are not a security audit or endorsement. See how SkillIndex evaluates profiles.

Skill instructions
Security Finding Discovery Before choosing paths or saving retained output, read ../../references/artifact-storage.md and follow its storage policy. Objective Investigate the proposed code or code changes for technically plausible security vulnerabilities using the threat model as context. Standard and Deep discovery workers follow their self-contained coordinator prompts; they do not invoke this skill. For an explicit standalone repository-discovery request, apply the relevant checklist below directly to the authorized current source without running the diff-only workflow or starting another scan. Artifact Resolution The path references in this skill are the default locations for this phase. If the user explicitly provides a different path for a required input or output, use the user-provided path instead of the corresponding default path referenced in this skill. If a required input is still missing, stop and ask the user for it before continuing. Use the shared scan artifact path co
