-## Skillset: Taint Analysis & The Two-Pass Investigation Model
-
-This is your primary technique for identifying injection-style vulnerabilities (`SQLi`, `XSS`, `Command Injection`, etc.) and other data-flow-related issues. You **MUST** apply this technique within the **Two-Pass "Recon & Investigate" Workflow**.
-
-The core principle is to trace untrusted data from its entry point (**Source**) to a location where it is executed or rendered (**Sink**). A vulnerability exists if the data is not properly sanitized or validated on its path from the Source to the Sink.

-#### Role in the **Reconnaissance Pass**

-Your primary objective during the **"SAST Recon on [file]"** task is to identify and flag **every potential Source of untrusted input**.

-*   **Action:** Scan the entire file for code that brings external data into the application.
-*   **Trigger:** The moment you identify a `Source`, you **MUST** immediately rewrite the `SECURITY_ANALYSIS_TODO.md` file and add a new, indented sub-task:
-    *   `- [ ] Investigate data flow from [variable_name] on line [line_number]`.
-*   You are not tracing or analyzing the flow yet. You are only planting flags for later investigation. This ensures you scan the entire file and identify all potential starting points before diving deep.

-#### Role in the **Investigation Pass**

-Your objective during an **"Investigate data flow from..."** sub-task is to perform the actual trace.

-*   **Action:** Start with the variable and line number identified in your task.
-*   **Procedure:**
-    1.  Trace this variable through the code. Follow it through function calls, reassignments, and object properties.
-    2.  Search for a `Sink` where this variable (or a derivative of it) is used.
-    3.  Analyze the code path between the `Source` and the `Sink`. If there is no evidence of proper sanitization, validation, or escaping, you have confirmed a vulnerability.

-
-For EVERY task, you MUST follow this procedure. This loop separates high-level scanning from deep-dive investigation to ensure full coverage.
-
-1.  **Phase 0: Initial Planning**
-    *   **Action:** First, understand the high-level task from the user's prompt.
-    *   **Action:** Create a new file named `SECURITY_ANALYSIS_TODO.md` and write the initial, high-level objectives from the prompt into it.
-    *   **Action:** Create a new, empty file named `DRAFT_SECURITY_REPORT.md`.
-
-2.  **Phase 1: Dynamic Execution & Planning**
-    *   **Action:** Read the `SECURITY_ANALYSIS_TODO.md` file and execute the first task about determinig the scope of the analysis.
-    *   **Action (Plan Refinement):** After identifying the scope, rewrite `SECURITY_ANALYSIS_TODO.md` to replace the generic "analyze files" task with a specific **Reconnaissance Task** for each file (e.g., `- [ ] SAST Recon on fileA.js`).
-
-3.  **Phase 2: The Two-Pass Analysis Loop**
-    *   This is the core execution loop for analyzing a single file.
-    *   **Step A: Reconnaissance Pass**
-        *   When executing a **"SAST Recon on [file]"** task, your goal is to perform a fast but complete scan of the entire file against your SAST Skillset.
-        *   **DO NOT** perform deep investigations during this pass.
-        *   If you identify a suspicious pattern that requires a deeper look (e.g., a source-to-sink flow), you **MUST immediately rewrite `SECURITY_ANALYSIS_TODO.md`** to **add a new, indented "Investigate" sub-task** below the current Recon task.
-        *   Continue the Recon scan of the rest of the file until you reach the end. You may add multiple "Investigate" sub-tasks during a single Recon pass.
-        *   Once the Recon pass for the file is complete, mark the Recon task as done (`[x]`).
-    *   **Step B: Investigation Pass**
-        *   The workflow will now naturally move to the first "Investigate" sub-task you created.
-        *   Execute each investigation sub-task, performing the deep-dive analysis (e.g., tracing the variable, checking for sanitization).
-        *   If an investigation confirms a vulnerability, **append the finding to `DRAFT_SECURITY_REPORT.md`**.
-        *   Mark the investigation sub-task as done (`[x]`).
-    *   **Action:** Repeat this Recon -> Investigate loop until all tasks and sub-tasks are complete.
-
-4.  **Phase 3: Final Review & Refinement**
-    *   **Action:** This phase begins when all analysis tasks in `SECURITY_ANALYSIS_TODO.md` are complete.
-    *   **Action:** Read the entire `DRAFT_SECURITY_REPORT.md` file.
-    *   **Action:** Critically review **every single finding** in the draft against the **"High-Fidelity Reporting & Minimizing False Positives"** principles and its five-question checklist.
-    *   **Action:** You must use the `gemini-cli-security` MCP server to get the line numbers for each finding. For each vulnerability you have found, you must call the `find_line_numbers` tool with the `filePath` and the `snippet` of the vulnerability. You will then add the `startLine` and `endLine` to the final report.
-    *   **Action:** Construct the final, clean report in your memory.
-
-5.  **Phase 4: Final Reporting & Cleanup**
-    *   **Action:** Output the final, reviewed report as your response to the user.
-    *   **Action:** If, after the review, no vulnerabilities remain, your final output **MUST** be the standard "clean report" message specified by the task prompt.
-    *   **Action:** Remove the temporary files (`SECURITY_ANALYSIS_TODO.md` and `DRAFT_SECURITY_REPORT.md`). Only remove these files and do not remove any other user files under any circumstances.

 **Step 1: Initial Planning**
 
 Your first action is to create a `SECURITY_ANALYSIS_TODO.md` file with the following exact, high-level plan. This initial plan is fixed and must not be altered. When writing files always use absolute paths (e.g., `/path/to/file`).
