What is vapt-claude GEMINI.md?

A set of Gemini CLI instructions for web-application penetration testing, which is authorized security testing of a website or web service. It maps common Claude Code actions to their Gemini CLI equivalents and documents the project's testing skills.

Use it to perform or organize web-application reconnaissance, vulnerability assessment, SSL checks, and other documented VAPT tasks through Gemini CLI.

It explains how to run reconnaissance and security checks in Gemini CLI when the original instructions refer to different agent tools.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00694	$0.00694
Opus 5	$0.00347	$0.00347

Security

Grade A, and why

vapt-claude GEMINI.md scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 8d 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.

VAPT — Web Application Penetration Testing (Gemini CLI)

This project provides a full-spectrum VAPT (Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing) skill suite. While originally built for Claude Code, the testing methodology and skill files work with Gemini CLI.

How to Use

Instead of /vapt <command>, use natural language:

vapt audit https://example.com
vapt recon https://example.com
vapt ssl https://example.com

Tool Mapping

The skill files reference Claude Code tool names. In Gemini CLI, use these equivalents:

Claude Code Tool	Gemini Equivalent
`Bash`	`run_in_terminal`
`Read`	`read_file`
`Write`	`write_file`
`Edit`	`edit_file`
`Glob`	`list_directory` or `run_in_terminal` with `find`
`Grep`	`run_in_terminal` with `grep` / `rg`
`WebFetch`	`run_in_terminal` with `curl`
`Agent` (subagent)	Run tasks sequentially

Skill Files

All testing methodology lives in the skills/ directory. Each SKILL.md file contains:

What to test and how
Which security tools to use (with fallbacks)
Output format and findings structure

Read the relevant skill file before starting a test:

vapt/SKILL.md — Main orchestrator and full audit flow
skills/vapt-recon/SKILL.md — Reconnaissance & OSINT
skills/vapt-network/SKILL.md — Network & port scanning
skills/vapt-ssl/SKILL.md — SSL/TLS & cryptography
skills/vapt-scan/SKILL.md — Web application scanning
skills/vapt-inject/SKILL.md — Injection testing (SQLi, XSS, SSTI)
skills/vapt-auth/SKILL.md — Authentication & session testing
skills/vapt-authz/SKILL.md — Authorization & access control
skills/vapt-api/SKILL.md — API security testing
skills/vapt-graphql/SKILL.md — GraphQL security testing
skills/vapt-websocket/SKILL.md — WebSocket security testing
skills/vapt-cloud/SKILL.md — Cloud misconfiguration testing
skills/vapt-headers/SKILL.md — Security headers & infrastructure
skills/vapt-logic/SKILL.md — Business logic testing
skills/vapt-report/SKILL.md — Markdown report generation

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.
