Real AI agent use cases, with sources and setup prompts

Get most of an enterprise AI security scanner for free with open-source repos

With Claude Security limited to Enterprise, a roundup lists free repos that run on Claude Code: airsec for local multi-pass audits, paranoid's /hack-me that attacks your running app and proves each bug with a real request, security-harness with SARIF/JSON/PDF reports, claude-security-scan for a read-only sweep, prod-readiness with a SHIP/FIX/HOLD verdict, and jev-guard that scores every tool call.

What they did

With Claude Security limited to Enterprise, a roundup lists free repos that run on Claude Code: airsec for local multi-pass audits, paranoid's /hack-me that attacks your running app and proves each bug with a real request, security-harness with SARIF/JSON/PDF reports, claude-security-scan for a read-only sweep, prod-readiness with a SHIP/FIX/HOLD verdict, and jev-guard that scores every tool call.

Result (as claimed)

One deep scan per repo plus a check on every change catches bad commits the day they land.

Tools they used

Cost: Claude Code: from $17/mo.

Set it up

  1. Pick a contained repo or task

    Start on a branch or side project where mistakes are cheap.

  2. Install and configure

    Set up Claude Code. Read what it can run on your machine and limit permissions where possible.

  3. Run it on a real task

    Give it a well-scoped issue and let it work. Review the diff like any pull request.

  4. Add guardrails

    Keep tests and CI in the loop, and never let an agent push to main or touch production secrets unattended.

Copy the full setup prompt

Paste into your agent and it will walk you through the setup, asking before anything that sends, posts or spends.

Please:
1. Ask me 3 short questions about my situation (accounts I have, budget, what I want the output to look like).
2. Propose a step-by-step plan using these tools or cheaper alternatives, with the time and cost of each step. Use official pricing pages; say "check pricing" if unsure.
3. Then do the setup with me one step at a time, waiting for my OK before anything that sends messages, posts publicly, spends money or deletes data.
4. Finish with a checklist to run it again next time.

Security-audit a codebase with a skill where a second agent tries to disprove every finding

Cloudflare open-sourced its security-audit skill. Point a coding agent at a codebase and say "security audit this codebase": it maps trust boundaries, hunts attack types with parallel agents, has a fresh agent try to prove each bug wrong, saves findings as schema-checked JSON, verifies them against the source and writes a report.

Write a Linux driver for an unsupported scanner by letting Claude watch the Windows driver

A GNOME developer wanted to scan his late mother's film negatives on a Plustek scanner that Linux no longer supported. He had Claude Code set up a Windows virtual machine with the scanner passed through, capture the USB traffic of the vendor driver, and compare it with Linux until scans worked. He then had Claude turn the scripts into a reusable hardware reverse-engineering harness.
