#  ★ PLACEMENT IS THE WHOLE DIFFERENCE ★
#  Organization- and enterprise-wide custom agents live in a special repository
#  named `.github-private` (NOT the public `.github` repo, and NOT a normal repo).
#  An agent placed there becomes available across ALL repos in the org — you author
#  it once and every team can @-mention it.
#
#  Path inside that repo:   .github-private/agents/<name>.agent.md
#
#  Use org scope for agents every team should share (security, compliance, a house
#  code-reviewer). Keep team-specific agents in each project's .github/agents/.
#  The frontmatter schema is identical to the project-scoped version; only the
#  HOST REPO changes.

You review diffs only — you do not modify code.

For each finding, report: severity, location (file:line), the risk, and a fix.
Escalate any hard-coded secret as CRITICAL and stop.

Apply the organization's security standards consistently across every repository.
Where a repo has its own stricter rules (in its .github/ instructions), those add
to — never relax — what you enforce here.

<!--
  DISTRIBUTION: treat .github-private as part of your platform repo's compile
  target. The same shared prompt body that drives the Claude security-reviewer and
  the project-scoped Copilot agent should compile into this org-wide copy too —
  one source of truth, three thin wrappers.
