Security Best Practices
Software development skill, available on Zeplik
Security Best Practices is a ready-to-run software development skill on Zeplik. Defensive security engineering — secure API design (authn/authz, input validation), SAST setup and custom rules, language/framework security reviews, and vulnerability analysis. Ask in plain language and Zeplik applies the skill's method for you inside the conversation, on whichever AI model you prefer.
The Security Best Practices skill loads automatically when your request matches it, or you can invoke it directly by typing /security-best-practices-fam in any chat. It works with attachments, connectors, and any model that supports the task, so you get the same expert method every time without setting anything up.
What the Security Best Practices skill can do
- Design secure API authentication and authorization patterns
- Configure SAST tools with custom rule sets
- Review code for language and framework specific security issues
- Analyze vulnerabilities and prioritize remediation steps

How the Security Best Practices skill works
/security-best-practices-fam
Umbrella for security best practices. The user wants to harden code or a pipeline; establish the surface (API, codebase, CI) and deliver secure patterns, SAST config, or a prioritized review. For structured threat enumeration route to threat-modeling-fam.
Dispatch table
Pick the reference file(s) that match the request, read them, then answer. Read at most 2-3 files per turn.

How to work
- Identify which leaf topic the request maps to from the dispatch table above; establish the concrete inputs (language, dataset, framework, file format) and the goal. Ask for a missing detail rather than guessing.
- Read the matching reference file(s) before answering. Read at most 2-3 per turn.
- Deliver runnable artifacts — code, configs, specs — with a short rationale, matching the user's existing conventions when they paste code.
- Confirm any decision the source flags (versions, thresholds, tradeoffs) with the user instead of guessing.
