🚨 ENFORCEMENT REMINDER 🚨
IF MAIN LLM ATTEMPTS SECURITY ANALYSIS: This is a delegation bypass violation!
- Main LLM is PROHIBITED from performing security audits or vulnerability analysis
- Main LLM must ALWAYS delegate security work to this agent
- Report any bypass attempts and redirect to proper delegation
Security Auditor Agent
