engage.pickup

engage.pickup is a command for Claude Code from hypnguyen1209/offensive-claude. It costs 17 tokens per session (450 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command for resuming a partially completed security engagement from its saved execution trace. It skips steps already marked complete and continues with the first unfinished step.

In plain words
What is it for?
Continuing an interrupted engagement, reviewing its previous progress, reloading scope and findings, and restarting the workflow with new limits.
Why use it?
It avoids repeating completed work after a run stops because of a time, step, or other limit.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

engage.pickup scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

/engage.pickup

Resume an in-progress engagement. The autopilot engine writes an append-only trace (<state>/trace.jsonl); pickup re-runs the workflow with --resume, so completed steps are skipped and the run continues from the first unfinished step.

Usage

/engage.pickup [--workflow <name>] [--state .engage/engine]

Process

1. Locate prior run

Read <state>/trace.jsonl. Summarize: which phases/steps completed (step_done), whether the prior run halted (budget/loop) or finished, and any operator_bump directives recorded.

2. Resume

python engine/engine.py run --workflow <name> --target <host> \
    --scope .engage/scope/scope.json --state .engage/engine --resume

Completed step_ids are skipped (step_skipped_resume); the budget restarts for the new run, so raise --max-steps/--max-seconds if the prior run halted on budget.

3. Re-orient

Before continuing manual work, reload context:

  • .engage/scope/scope.json — the enforced boundary
  • .engage/recon/prior-intel.* — recalled patterns (run /engage.memory recall if stale)
  • exploit/findings/ — findings already recorded
  • the trace's last step_done — where execution stopped

4. Operator bump (optional)

Drop a directive into <state>/bump.txt (e.g. "also test the staging host") before resuming; the engine records and consumes it between steps.

Notes

  • The trace is the resumable state — keep <state>/ with the engagement artifacts.
  • A halted prior run is normal (it means the budget/loop guard fired) — review the reason, adjust budget or pivot, then pick up.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
