GitHub Security Lab released Taskflow Agent, an open source framework that uses AI and natural language to automate security research. The framework allows researchers to create YAML-based taskflows that chain together security analysis tasks, leveraging Model Context Protocol (MCP) interfaces and tools like CodeQL. It supports community collaboration through Python's packaging ecosystem, enabling researchers to share taskflows, toolboxes, and security knowledge. The demo shows variant analysis by downloading security advisories, identifying vulnerable code, and auditing for similar bugs.
