Static Application Security Testing (SAST) tool setup, configuration, and custom rule creation for comprehensive security scanning across multiple programming languages.
This skill provides comprehensive guidance for setting up and configuring SAST tools including Semgrep, SonarQube, and CodeQL. Use this skill when you need to:
# Semgrep quick start
pip install semgrep
semgrep --config=auto --error
# SonarQube with Docker
docker run -d --name sonarqube -p 9000:9000 sonarqube:10.8-community
# CodeQL CLI setup
gh extension install github/gh-codeql
codeql database create mydb --language=python
# GitHub Actions example
- name: Run Semgrep
uses: returntocorp/semgrep-action@v1
with:
config: >-
p/security-audit
p/owasp-top-ten
# .pre-commit-config.yaml
- repo: https://github.com/returntocorp/semgrep
rev: v1.45.0
hooks:
- id: semgrep
args: ['--config=auto', '--error']

./scripts/run-sast.sh --setup --language python --tools semgrep,sonarqube
# See references/semgrep-rules.md for detailed examples
rules:
- id: hardcoded-jwt-secret
pattern: jwt.encode($DATA, "...", ...)
message: JWT secret should not be hardcoded
severity: ERROR
# PCI-DSS focused scan
semgrep --config p/pci-dss --json -o pci-scan-results.json
| Tool | Best For | Language Support | Cost | Integration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Semgrep | Custom rules, fast scans | 30+ languages | Free/Enterprise | Excellent |
| SonarQube | Code quality + security | 25+ languages | Free/Commercial | Good |
| CodeQL | Deep analysis, research | 10+ languages | Free (OSS) | GitHub native |

Set up and use 1Password CLI (op). Use when installing the CLI, enabling desktop app integration, signing in (single or multi-account), or reading/injecting/running secrets via op.
CLI to manage emails via IMAP/SMTP. Use `himalaya` to list, read, write, reply, forward, search, and organize emails from the terminal. Supports multiple accounts and message composition with MML (MIME Meta Language).
