Remotes Audit

/remotes-audit — Remotes Security Audit

Delegate to: remotes-networking-specialist (with exploit-security-specialist for security review)

Steps:

1. Find all RemoteEvent/RemoteFunction creation: grep -rn "RemoteEvent\|RemoteFunction\|UnreliableRemoteEvent" src/
2. Find all OnServerEvent handlers: grep -rn "OnServerEvent\|OnServerInvoke" src/
3. Find all FireServer calls: grep -rn "FireServer\|InvokeServer" src/

For each server-side handler, verify:

Critical (must fix):

• [ ] Type checking on EVERY argument (typeof(arg) == expected)
• [ ] Range/sanity checks on numeric values
• [ ] Player reference validation (is this player allowed to do this?)
• [ ] No RemoteFunction with OnServerInvoke from client (server hang risk)

Important (should fix):

• [ ] Rate limiting per player (configurable, recommended 10-30 calls/sec depending on remote)
• [ ] Cooldown enforcement server-side (not relying on client cooldown)
• [ ] No Instance references passed through remotes (use string keys/IDs)
• [ ] Bandwidth estimation for high-frequency remotes

Architecture:

• [ ] Remotes manifest exists and is up to date (design/remotes-manifest.md)
• [ ] Remotes centrally managed (not scattered Instance.new calls)
• [ ] Clear naming convention for remotes

Output:

Generate a security report with findings organized by severity:

# Remotes Audit

## Summary
- Total remotes found: X
- Client → Server: X
- Server → Client: X
- Unreliable: X

## Remotes Inventory
| Name | Type | Direction | Validation | Rate Limit | Status |
|------|------|-----------|------------|------------|--------|
| PurchaseItem | RemoteEvent | C→S | ✅ | ✅ 5/sec | OK |
| ShowMessage | RemoteEvent | S→C | N/A | N/A | OK |
| RequestData | RemoteFunction | S→C | N/A | N/A | OK |
| DangerousRemote | RemoteFunction | C→S | ❌ | ❌ | ⚠️ CRITICAL |

## Critical Findings
1. **DangerousRemote** (`src/ServerScriptService/X.lua:42`)
   - Client → Server RemoteFunction — server hang risk
   - Fix: Convert to RemoteEvent with optional response via separate remote

## Important Findings
...

## Recommendations
- Create `design/remotes-manifest.md` if missing
- Consolidate remote creation into `ReplicatedStorage/Shared/Remotes.lua`

Offer to delegate fixes to the appropriate specialist.
