Preparing AutoJSON for open source expansion requires security hardening: vulnerability reporting process, protection against accidental secret commits, and tooling to audit git history.

Changes

Security Policy (SECURITY.md)

  • Vulnerability disclosure process with SLA commitments (48h initial, 7d update)
  • Security best practices: local-only data processing, sensitive file handling, dependency monitoring
  • Production deployment checklist covering GDPR/CCPA considerations

Enhanced .gitignore

Expanded from 67 to 356 lines covering:

  • Secrets: .env, keys, certificates, credentials, database files
  • Python: All build artifacts, venvs, pytest/coverage outputs
  • IDEs: VSCode, PyCharm, Vim, Emacs, Sublime, Eclipse, NetBeans
  • OS: macOS, Windows, Linux temp files

Git History Scanner (scripts/scan_git_history.py)

Detects accidentally committed secrets across all git history:

  • File patterns: .env, .key, .pem, secret*, credential*
  • Content patterns: API keys, tokens, passwords, private keys
  • Platform-specific: AWS, GitHub, GitLab, Slack, Stripe, database connection strings
  • Generates actionable reports with remediation steps

Usage:

python scripts/scan_git_history.py --output security_report.txt

Current repository scan: 0 issues detected

Documentation

  • SECURITY_QUICK_REFERENCE.md: Command reference for security workflows
  • Updated README.md and scripts/README.md with security sections
Original prompt

Generate a SECURITY.md file.
Create a PR to add enhanced .gitignore patterns.
Help scan git history for leaked files.

My aim is to make this project free and expand by open sources
