Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 | $0.00061 | $0.01546 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00024 | $0.00618 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00309 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00155 |
Grade A, and why
stackhawk-hawkscan-findings scanned grade A with 2 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 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.
Sends data to an external URLlowData exfiltration
A POST to an outside endpoint may be telemetry or may be exfiltration; either way the mod talks to somewhere, and you should know where.
"reproduce_curl": "curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/users/search -d '{\"q\": \"\\' OR 1=1--\"}'" Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.
Makes network callslowCapability
Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.
"reproduce_curl": "curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/users/search -d '{\"q\": \"\\' OR 1=1--\"}'" How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 155 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

JSON Output Schema (--json-output)
When running with --json-output, HawkScan produces a single pretty-printed JSON
object to stdout. All other output (progress bars, banners, status messages) is
suppressed.
Important: --json-output requires at least HawkScan Dev Release v5.3.41.
Important: --json-output cannot be used with --trace — the CLI will error
with exit code 1 if both are set.

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.

stackhawk-hawkscan-findings is a cursor rule published in the GitHub repository stackhawk/agent-skills (16 stars, last pushed 9d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 61 tokens to every session and 1,546 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 2 findings (sends data to an external url, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
