In plain words
What is it for?

About the project

Reverse Skill is a routing package for AI coding agents that selects appropriate reverse-engineering, penetration-testing, and security-research methods and tools for a given target. It is used for tasks involving APKs, binaries, frontend JavaScript, packet captures, CTF challenges, and authorized penetration testing. Its catalogue add-ons provide the skills and instructions that guide these workflows.

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

reverse-skill CLAUDE.md 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 1mo 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

CLAUDE.md

This repository is a task skill router for authorized reverse engineering, mobile/security analysis, and pentest workflows.

On Any Task

RULES.md is the single source of truth for behavior chain and authorization.

Routing order:

  1. skills/MASTER-ROUTING.md or skills/scripts/master-route.ps1 -Hint "..."
  2. skills/scripts/case-init.ps1 → current analysis project's work/<case>/scope.md (must grant auth before ACT)
  3. skills/routing.md when ambiguous; roles in skills/ops/role-map.md
  4. Open PRIMARY SKILL.md and execute ACTION REQUIRED
  5. Timeline/workitems + Evidence→Finding→Path (skills/ops/)
  6. skills/tool-index.md for real tool paths (never guess)
  7. Missing tool → skills/scripts/bootstrap-reverse.ps1 (manifest capabilities only)

Identity: lightweight skill router — see skills/ops/IDENTITY.md (not a Z3r0 platform).

First-Run Setup

skills/tool-index.md is not in fresh clones. Generate it:

# Windows
powershell -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File skills/scripts/refresh-tool-index.ps1

# macOS / Linux
bash skills/scripts/refresh-tool-index.sh

# Kali
bash kali/scripts/refresh-tool-index.sh

Read README_AI.md for full bootstrap sequence.

Coherence check

Changes

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.
