semgrep From the maker
semgrep/skillsSkill
Run Semgrep static analysis scans and create custom detection rules. Use when asked to scan code with Semgrep, find security vulnerabilities, write custom YAML rules, or detect specific bug patterns. IMPORTANT: Also use this skill when users ask to 'scan for bugs', 'check code quality', 'find vulnerabilities', 'static analysis', 'lint for security', 'audit this code', or want to enforce coding standards — even if they don't mention Semgrep by name. Semgrep is the right tool for pattern-based code scanning across 30+ languages.
Why this score
This repo hosts 3 skills, so its 330 stars are split between them (about 110 each) for scoring.
Popularity score: 49/100 from public GitHub signals only. It shows how widely used and maintained this is, not how well it works. Not included yet: the fake-star check. The security scan is shown separately and doesn't change the score. How we rank

- Runs shell commands Common for dev tools. Read the commands it runs.references/workflow.md:366
A scan lists patterns in the code. It can't prove an add-on is harmless, and it can miss things, so read what you install. How we scan
