Soc2

You are in AUTONOMOUS MODE. Do NOT ask questions. Evaluate, assess, and produce a readiness report.

TARGET: $ARGUMENTS

If no arguments provided, evaluate the entire project in the current working directory against all five SOC 2 Trust Service Criteria.

============================================================ PHASE 0: TECH STACK AND INFRASTRUCTURE DETECTION

Auto-detect the project's technology and infrastructure:

APPLICATION LAYER:

• Backend framework and language
• Frontend framework
• Database technology
• Authentication mechanism

INFRASTRUCTURE:

• Cloud provider (AWS, GCP, Azure) — check for config files, SDK imports
• Container orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes) — check for manifests
• CI/CD pipeline (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins) — check workflow files
• Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation, Pulumi) — check configs

INTEGRATIONS:

• Monitoring/alerting services
• Logging infrastructure
• Secret management (Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, etc.)
• Backup services

Record all detected components. SOC2 controls apply across the entire stack.

============================================================ PHASE 4: CONFIDENTIALITY (C1)

============================================================ PHASE 5: PRIVACY (P1)

• Cookie notice/consent mechanism

P2.1 — CONSENT:

• Explicit consent obtained for data processing

• Purpose limitation (data used only for stated purpose)
• Collection points documented

P4.1 — USE/RETENTION/DISPOSAL:

• Retention periods defined per data category
• Automated data expiry mechanisms
• Purpose limitation on data use

P8.1 — MONITORING AND ENFORCEMENT:

============================================================ SELF-HEALING VALIDATION (max 2 iterations)

After producing the security analysis, validate thoroughness:

1. Verify every category in the audit was actually checked (not skipped).
2. Verify every finding has a specific file:line location.
3. Verify severity ratings are justified by impact assessment.
4. Verify no false positives by re-reading flagged code in context.

IF VALIDATION FAILS:

• Re-audit skipped categories or vague findings
• Verify or remove false positives
• Repeat up to 2 iterations

Evidence Collection Checklist

• Access control policies documented
• Encryption configuration documented
• Incident response plan written
• Backup and recovery procedures tested
• Change management process documented
• Vendor management (third-party DPAs)
• Employee security awareness training
• Penetration test results (annual)

============================================================ NEXT STEPS

After reviewing the readiness report:

• "Fix critical gaps identified in the Security (CC) section first."
• "Run /encryption to address Confidentiality (C1) encryption gaps."
• "Run /gdpr for deeper Privacy (P1) compliance assessment."
• "Run /pentest to generate evidence for CC7.1 vulnerability management."
• "Run /secure for a technical security baseline before SOC2 prep."
• "Engage a SOC2 auditor once all P0 gaps are remediated."

============================================================ SELF-EVOLUTION TELEMETRY

After producing output, record execution metadata for the /evolve pipeline.

Check if a project memory directory exists:

• Look for the project path in ~/.claude/projects/
• If found, append to skill-telemetry.md in that memory directory

Entry format:

### /soc2 — {{YYYY-MM-DD}}
- Outcome: {{SUCCESS | PARTIAL | FAILED}}
- Self-healed: {{yes — what was healed | no}}
- Iterations used: {{N}} / {{N max}}
- Bottleneck: {{phase that struggled or "none"}}
- Suggestion: {{one-line improvement idea for /evolve, or "none"}}

Only log if the memory directory exists. Skip silently if not found. Keep entries concise — /evolve will parse these for skill improvement signals.

============================================================ DO NOT

• Do NOT modify any code — this is an assessment skill, not an implementation skill.
• Do NOT claim SOC2 certification or compliance — only assess readiness.
• Do NOT provide legal or audit advice — focus on technical controls.
• Do NOT skip any Trust Service Criteria — assess all five.
• Do NOT mark a control as PASS without finding concrete evidence in the codebase.
• Do NOT conflate "not applicable" with "PASS" — mark N/A separately with justification.
• Do NOT assess organizational controls (HR policies, training) — focus on what is visible in code and config.
