validating-pci-dss-compliance
This skill uses the pci-dss-validator plugin to assess codebases and infrastructure configurations for compliance with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). It identifies potential vulnerabilities and deviations from PCI DSS requirements. Use this skill when the user requests to "validate PCI compliance", "check PCI DSS", "assess PCI security", or "review PCI standards" for a given project or configuration. It helps ensure that systems handling cardholder data meet the necessary security controls.

About this skill
Overview
This skill streamlines PCI DSS compliance checks by automatically analyzing code and configurations. It flags potential issues, allowing for proactive remediation and improved security posture. It is particularly useful for developers, security engineers, and compliance officers.
How It Works
- Analyze the Target: The skill identifies the codebase, configuration files, or infrastructure resources to be evaluated.
- Run PCI DSS Validation: The pci-dss-validator plugin scans the target for potential PCI DSS violations.
- Generate Report: The skill compiles a report detailing any identified vulnerabilities or non-compliant configurations, along with remediation recommendations.
When to Use This Skill
This skill activates when you need to:
- Evaluate a new application or system for PCI DSS compliance before deployment.
- Periodically assess existing systems to maintain PCI DSS compliance.
- Investigate potential security vulnerabilities related to PCI DSS.
Examples
Example 1: Validating a Web Application
User request: "Validate PCI compliance for my e-commerce web application."
The skill will:
- Identify the source code repository for the web application.
- Run the pci-dss-validator plugin against the codebase.
- Generate a report highlighting any PCI DSS violations found in the code.
Example 2: Checking Infrastructure Configuration
User request: "Check PCI DSS compliance of my AWS infrastructure."
The skill will:
- Access the AWS configuration files (e.g., Terraform, CloudFormation).
- Execute the pci-dss-validator plugin against the infrastructure configuration.
- Produce a report outlining any non-compliant configurations in the AWS environment.
Best Practices
- Scope Definition: Clearly define the scope of the PCI DSS assessment to ensure accurate and relevant results.
- Regular Assessments: Conduct regular PCI DSS assessments to maintain continuous compliance.
- Remediation Tracking: Track and document all remediation efforts to demonstrate ongoing commitment to security.
Integration
This skill can be integrated with other security tools and plugins to provide a comprehensive security assessment. For example, it can be used in conjunction with static analysis tools to identify vulnerabilities in code before it is deployed. It can also be integrated with infrastructure-as-code tools to ensure that infrastructure is compliant with PCI DSS from the start.

nano-banana-pro
garg-aayush
Generate and edit images using Google's Nano Banana Pro (Gemini 3 Pro Image) API. Use when the user asks to generate, create, edit, modify, change, alter, or update images. Also use when user references an existing image file and asks to modify it in any way (e.g., "modify this image", "change the background", "replace X with Y"). Supports both text-to-image generation and image-to-image editing with configurable resolution (1K default, 2K, or 4K for high resolution). DO NOT read the image file first - use this skill directly with the --input-image parameter.
pdf-to-markdown
aliceisjustplaying
Convert entire PDF documents to clean, structured Markdown for full context loading. Use this skill when the user wants to extract ALL text from a PDF into context (not grep/search), when discussing or analyzing PDF content in full, when the user mentions "load the whole PDF", "bring the PDF into context", "read the entire PDF", or when partial extraction/grepping would miss important context. This is the preferred method for PDF text extraction over page-by-page or grep approaches.
