dast-zap

A security tester that checks a running web application or API with OWASP ZAP, also called Zed Attack Proxy. DAST means dynamic application security testing: testing the application while it runs.

In plain words
What is it for?
Running passive and active scans, testing APIs, and looking for issues such as cross-site scripting and SQL injection, including risks from the OWASP Top 10.
Why use it?
It can expose weaknesses that are only visible during real requests and responses, including common web attack paths. This complements checks of the source code itself.

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

dast-zap 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.

dast-zap is a skill published in the GitHub repository AgentSecOps/SecOpsAgentKit (202 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), with no licence file. It adds 120 tokens to every session and 3,631 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
