A Claude Code add-on for HawkScan, a tool that tests running web applications and APIs for security weaknesses. It can set up scans, run them, and turn findings into ordered fix tasks.

Use it to create HawkScan configuration, run scans with the command line or Docker, and interpret web-application or API security findings.

It brings security testing and the resulting work items into the coding workflow instead of leaving scan results separate.

Security

Grade A, and why

hawkscan 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 2d 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 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.
