Trusted Devices
Stop asking for a second factor on the laptop they use every day.
What it adds
A per-device trust token that skips repeat verification on familiar devices, with expiry, naming, and revocation.
What your agent is told to do
5
What your agent is told to do
5-
1
Issue a signed, revocable token stored on the device when the user opts to trust it after a successful verification, and record the device server-side so it can be listed and revoked.
-
2
Rotate the token on each use so a stolen copy has a short useful life and reuse of an old token is detectable.
-
3
Expire trust after a fixed period regardless of activity, and drop all trust on password change, second-factor change, or recovery.
-
4
Show the user their trusted devices with a name, last-used time, and a revoke control, plus revoke-all.
-
5
Do NOT trust a browser fingerprint on its own. Fingerprints collide across similar machines and cannot be revoked, which makes them useless as a security boundary.
Edge cases it handles

Edge cases it handles
6- A cleared cookie jar means the device simply is not trusted anymore — verify again rather than trying to recover trust from other signals.
- A copied or cloned browser profile will present a valid token; token rotation plus a reuse alarm is what catches it.
- High-risk actions — changing the password, adding a payment method, exporting data — must require fresh verification even on a trusted device.
- Trust is per user and per device: a shared machine must not skip verification for a second account.
- Cap the number of trusted devices and prompt the user when they hit it, rather than growing the list without bound.
- Signing in from a trusted device in a new country should still trigger verification.

Definition of done
8- Trust is a revocable server-side record backed by a rotating token, not a fingerprint.
- Trust expires on a fixed schedule and is cleared on any credential change.
- Users can name, list, and revoke devices, including all at once.
- High-risk actions require fresh verification regardless of trust.
- Token reuse after rotation is detected and revokes the device.
- Trust does not carry across user accounts on the same machine.
- The feature matches the existing design system.
- No existing functionality is broken.

Upload Malware Scanning
Upload Malware Scanning
Quarantine uploaded files until they are known safe.
What it does
A quarantine lifecycle for uploads: every new file is unreachable until scanned, with defined handling for scanner failures and infected results.
How it works
- 1 Give every upload an explicit scan state — pending, clean, infected, or error — and default it to pending the moment the bytes land.
- 2 Make pending and infected files unreachable from every access path in the app, including admin views, previews, thumbnails, and any signed URL. A quarantine with one exception is not a quarantine.
- 3 Scan asynchronously and update the state; do not block the upload request on the scanner.

Rate Limiting
Rate Limiting
Stop one client from ruining it for everyone.
What it does
Throttling on the endpoints that get abused: auth, search, exports, and public forms.
How it works
- 1 Identify the endpoints worth protecting: sign-in, sign-up, password reset, search, exports, and anything unauthenticated.
- 2 Limit by a stable identifier — user ID where signed in, IP otherwise. Be aware IP is shared behind NAT and proxies.
- 3 Return 429 with a Retry-After header. Do not silently drop the request.

Password Generator
Password Generator
Offer a strong password in one click wherever someone sets or changes credentials.
What it does
A generate control on password fields that produces a strong value, shows it, and hands it to the user safely.
How it works
- 1 Add the control to every place a password is set: sign-up, password change, password reset completion, and any admin screen that provisions credentials for someone else.
- 2 Generate the value in the browser using the platform's cryptographic random source. The value must never be produced on the server or sent anywhere.
- 3 Reveal the generated password by default so the user can record it, and offer a regenerate control beside it. A hidden generated password that the user cannot see is a password they will immediately reset.

It inspects, then implements
Your agent reads your existing app first, then adds the feature to fit it.
Works with your stack
These instructions are written to adapt. They tell the agent to detect your framework, match your existing design system, and reuse what you already have — rather than assuming a particular stack.
Need it tighter than that? Customize the feature and tell it exactly what you're running.
