Semgrep Rule Variant Creator
Port existing Semgrep rules to new target languages with proper applicability analysis and test-driven validation.
When to Use
Ideal scenarios:
- Porting an existing Semgrep rule to one or more target languages
- Creating language-specific variants of a universal vulnerability pattern
- Expanding rule coverage across a polyglot codebase
- Translating rules between languages with equivalent constructs
When NOT to Use
Do NOT use this skill for:
- Creating a new Semgrep rule from scratch (use
semgrep-rule-creatorinstead) - Running existing rules against code
- Languages where the vulnerability pattern fundamentally doesn't apply
- Minor syntax variations within the same language
