Use when the user asks for a deep, exhaustive, multi-pass, or variance-reducing repository-wide Codex Security scan. Run repeated independent repository-wide discovery passes with worker-specific threat models, semantically merge candidates, synthesize one canonical validation threat model, then run validation, attack-path analysis, and final reporting once. Repository-wide targets only; do not use for PRs, commits, branch diffs, working-tree diffs, or scoped paths.

The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
Deep Security Scan is a higher-recall repository-wide wrapper around Codex Security. It preserves the ordinary Codex Security phase model and final report shape, but repeats the most variance-sensitive phase, finding discovery, before centralized judgment.
The wrapper owns orchestration only:
$codex-security:finding-discovery$codex-security:validation, $codex-security:attack-path-analysis, and final report assembly onceDo not replace Codex Security's established scan rules with custom shortcuts.
Before starting, confirm that the Codex Security plugin skills needed by this workflow are available:
$codex-security:security-scan$codex-security:threat-model$codex-security:finding-discovery$codex-security:validation$codex-security:attack-path-analysisIf any required skill is unavailable, stop and say that this Codex Security installation does not include the required scan skills. Do not silently degrade into a different workflow.
This workflow also requires parallel delegated workers for repeated discovery. Treat explicit invocation of Deep Security Scan as the user's request for this fanout workflow. If delegation is unavailable in the current environment, do not claim Deep Security Scan ran; explain the limitation and offer an ordinary Codex Security scan as the fallback path.
When delegated discovery workers are spawned from the current scan thread, inherit the parent worker configuration. Do not override agent_type, model, or reasoning effort on a full-history fork; use the host's inherited defaults so the spawn call does not fail before discovery begins.
