opencrow-stego-toolbox

opencrow-stego-toolbox is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from 02loveslollipop/OpenCROW. It costs 56 tokens per session (449 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A steganography toolkit for finding and extracting data hidden inside image or audio files. Steganography is the practice of concealing information within another file.

In plain words
What is it for?
Examining PNG and BMP files for bit-plane data, extracting embedded content with steghide, and following up on files that may contain hidden or carved data.
Why use it?
It brings together checks for hidden metadata, image bit patterns, and embedded payloads, which can otherwise require several separate 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.

Security

Grade A, and why

opencrow-stego-toolbox 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 12d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/verify_toolkit.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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

OpenCROW Stego Toolbox

Runtime preflight

Probe required commands with command -v and Python modules with importlib.util.find_spec before use. Prefer a PATH-resolved OpenCROW MCP helper or the ctf/sage environment when available, then the managed helper or system Python. If a capability is missing, stop that path safely and report the exact missing command or module.

Use this skill for image or audio artifacts that may hide data in metadata, bit planes, or container structures. It covers steghide for embedded payload extraction and zsteg for PNG/BMP stego triage.

Quick Start

Start the MCP server from the installed CLI:

opencrow-stego-mcp

Verify the mapped stack:

python3 scripts/verify_toolkit.py

Workflow

  1. Start with zsteg when the target is a PNG or BMP and you suspect LSB or plane-based data hiding.
  2. Start with steghide when the file type matches its embedding model and a passphrase may be involved.
  3. Combine this toolbox with opencrow-forensics-toolbox when metadata or carved files may be involved too.
  4. If a full profile was installed, use the manual StegSolve or OpenStego steps from the installer summary for GUI-assisted analysis.
  5. Prefer the MCP server operations first: toolbox_info, toolbox_verify, toolbox_capabilities, stego_inspect, and stego_extract.

Resources

  • opencrow-stego-mcp: stdio MCP server for typed stego inspection and extraction workflows.
  • scripts/verify_toolkit.py: confirm that the mapped stego tools are installed.
  • references/tooling.md: quick guidance for choosing stego tools.
Files

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
