What it does

This skill gives the AI agent a detailed checklist for finding security bugs in software. Once installed, when a conversation touches on code review, taint analysis, static analysis or bug hunting, the agent works through phases such as reconnaissance, static and dynamic analysis, fuzzing, and attack-surface mapping (Windows user mode, kernel drivers, eBPF), and it tracks which steps are done and suggests next steps. It is a methodology and reference document rather than a tool that runs scans itself; it also covers exploitation phases, which goes beyond finding bugs.

Great for

  • Security researchers performing authorised code audits or reviewing targets in a bug bounty program
  • Developers who want a structured checklist for reviewing their own code for vulnerabilities
  • Security teams designing a vulnerability identification workflow

Skip it if

  • Attacking systems you do not own or have written permission to test, since the methodology includes exploitation and weaponisation phases that could be misused
  • Beginners looking for a simple scanner, because it gives a methodology and does not run any tools by itself

Try asking

  • “Walk me through a code audit checklist for this C parser I wrote, focusing on input validation”
  • “Help me triage this bug bounty scope and suggest which attack surfaces to examine first”
  • “Suggest taint analysis steps for tracking user input through this web API”

  3. 3

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Give the agent the specific target, its language, and whether you have authorisation, so it applies the relevant checklist items
  • Ask it to track progress across the phases so you can see which checks are complete
  • Verify any suggested CVE references or tool commands against primary sources, since the file cites specific examples without a fresh check
