Batteries. Combination watch-sized radiation and air quality detector. Mirror. Holdout gun.

I've already got a pistol loaded with HP rounds (same deal as Frangible, except more apt for combat was what I thought),

There's not a huge difference mechanically, but I'd get frangible rounds in case you need to fire onboard the ship.

I'm a big fan of gyrocs from Ultratech. They work well as holdout pistols, IMO.

a flamethrower for antagonistic or parasitic plant-life, acid dispensers for flame-resistant mold and

Hopefully you can get small versions of these.

something to fire armor-piercing bullets in case we run into any carapaced wildlife.

That's called an extra magazine of ball or AP ammo.

And some flash-bangs in case things on the ship get reeeaaal hairy.

Smoke grenades. Don't forget smoke grenades.

and rubber bullets in case of 'space madness' and not a murder-spree.

You mean a taser or a blood choke.

Does this sound reasonable to the hivemind, and is there anything I should add to make sure I'm the best damn security chief possible?

Tactics, observation, wrestling, brawling/karate, stealth, holdout, intimidation, knife.
