crypto-ctf

crypto-ctf is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from AeonDave/malskill. It costs 37 tokens per session (1,734 once invoked), scanned A, original, no licence file.

A practice guide for cryptography capture-the-flag challenges involving encrypted messages, keys, signatures, random-number generators, and mathematical protocols.

In plain words
What is it for?
Analyzing ciphertexts, signatures, oracle interactions, protocol transcripts, RSA, elliptic-curve cryptography, lattices, and related code.
Why use it?
It helps developers break down cryptography puzzles and identify weaknesses in how messages, keys, or protocols are constructed.

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

crypto-ctf 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 4d 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.

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.
