Summarizes a practical playbook pulled from 50+ talks and dozens of tools and shows concrete wins: continuous PR scanning with fast AST checks using sgrep AST matching to cut noise, an asset graph for rapid impact queries using cartography asset graph that turns days of incident triage into minutes, and automated least-privilege via RepoKit-style permission pruning plus policy-as-code invariants and runbook automation. Gives examples where React migration eliminated XSS and a secure XML wrapper stopped ongoing XXE fixes, reducing recurring ops work.
