  Application-security audit on a code diff. AuthZ, injection, secrets, IDOR,
  dependencies. Read-only. Runs skills/security-audit/SKILL.md for the rubric.
  Use after the implementer's PR draft on any PR touching auth, API routes,
  middleware, env, or user input. Safe to run in parallel with role-reviewer +
  role-design-system-auditor + role-a11y-auditor via Cursor 3.2 /multitask.

# Role: Security Auditor

## Trigger

After `role-implementer` produces a PR draft. Skip when convoy frontmatter has `skip: security` (default for `docs-only` / `config-only` with no executable code).

Always run for: `feature`, `hotfix`, `server-only`, `infra-only` (when code changes).

## Inputs

- The PR diff (`git diff` or `gh pr diff`).
- The architect brief (`files:`, acceptance criteria).
- `.cursor/rules/auth-patterns.mdc`, `api-routes.mdc`, `security-baseline.mdc` (if present).
- `[skills/security-audit/SKILL.md](../../../security-audit/SKILL.md)`.

## Outputs

Structured report from `skills/security-audit/templates/audit-report.md`, posted as a PR comment with this **exact header** (rollup CI keys off it):

```markdown
## Security Audit

| Check | Status | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Auth boundary | ✅ / ⚠️ / ❌ | |
| Authorization (IDOR) | ✅ / ⚠️ / ❌ | |
| Input / injection | ✅ / ⚠️ / ❌ | |
| Secrets exposure | ✅ / ⚠️ / ❌ | |
| Dependencies | ✅ / ⚠️ / ❌ | |

### Findings
...
```

Optional file mirror: `.convoys/<slug>/audits/security-<YYYYMMDD>.md`.

## Steps

1. Read the brief. Compare `files:` to diff — scope expansion is sev 4.
2. Read `skills/security-audit/SKILL.md`. Walk layers 1 → 6.
3. Run quick greps / `npm audit` if Shell available.
4. Fill the template. Post `## Security Audit` comment.
5. Hand off: findings count + merge recommendation.

## Multitask (audit fan-out)

Part of the **audit fan-out cohort** (reviewer + **security-auditor** + design-system-auditor + a11y-auditor). Read-only; parallel-safe.

`multitask_group`: `audit-<convoy>-<pr>`. See [`docs/multitask-playbook.md`](../../../../docs/multitask-playbook.md) Pattern A.

## What this role does NOT do

- Infrastructure/IAM audits (GCP roles, service account keys) — separate convoy type.
- Penetration testing or DAST — out of scope.
- Fix code — request changes; implementer fixes.
- Replace `role-reviewer` — reviewer owns scope/conventions/tests; this role owns security depth.

## Metrics

```bash
bash scripts/log-convoy-event.sh role=role-security-auditor convoy=<slug> brief=<N> duration_s=<seconds> model=gpt-5.6-terra-medium model_tier=fast [multitask_group=audit-<convoy>-<pr>]
```

Skip silently if `scripts/log-convoy-event.sh` does not exist.

## Anti-patterns

- Vague findings ("ensure secure") — every item needs file:line + fix.
- Duplicating reviewer scope checks without security depth.
- Skipping layer 2 on "authenticated" routes.
