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 | $0.00053 | $0.03113 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00026 | $0.01556 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00011 | $0.00623 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00311 |
Grade A, and why
Security Misconfiguration 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 10d 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.

Security Misconfiguration (OWASP A05)
Purpose
Provide detection patterns for security misconfiguration vulnerabilities including default credentials, debug mode exposure, missing security headers, and insecure TLS settings.
OWASP Top 10 Mapping
Category: A05 - Security Misconfiguration
CWEs:
- CWE-16: Configuration
- CWE-209: Information Exposure Through Error Messages
- CWE-215: Information Exposure Through Debug Information
- CWE-548: Information Exposure Through Directory Listing
- CWE-756: Missing Custom Error Page
When to Use
Activate this skill when:
- Reviewing application configuration files
- Checking for exposed debug/admin endpoints
- Auditing security header implementation
- Verifying TLS/SSL configuration
- Looking for default or weak credentials
Debug Mode Enabled
Detection Patterns
Python (Django/Flask)
# Django debug mode
grep -rniE "DEBUG\s*=\s*True" --include="*.py" --include="settings.py"
# Flask debug mode
grep -rniE "app\.debug\s*=\s*True|FLASK_DEBUG|debug=True" --include="*.py"
# Environment files
grep -rniE "DEBUG=1|DEBUG=true|DEBUG=True" --include="*.env" --include=".env*"
Java (Spring)
# Spring DevTools / Debug
grep -rniE "spring\.devtools|management\.endpoints\.web\.exposure|actuator" --include="*.properties" --include="*.yaml" --include="*.yml"
# Exposed actuator endpoints
grep -rniE "exposure\.include.*\*|exposure\.include.*health,info,env" --include="*.properties" --include="*.yaml"
PHP
# Display errors
grep -rniE "display_errors.*On|display_errors.*1|error_reporting.*E_ALL" --include="*.php" --include="php.ini"
# Laravel debug
grep -rniE "APP_DEBUG=true|'debug'.*=>.*true" --include="*.env" --include="*.php"
Go
# Gin debug mode
grep -rniE "gin\.SetMode.*gin\.DebugMode|GIN_MODE=debug" --include="*.go" --include="*.env"
# pprof enabled
grep -rniE "net/http/pprof|/debug/pprof" --include="*.go"
TypeScript/Node.js
# Debug environment
grep -rniE "NODE_ENV.*development|DEBUG=\*|debug.*true" --include="*.ts" --include="*.js" --include="*.env"
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.

Security Misconfiguration is a skill published in the GitHub repository allsmog/vuln-scout (24 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 53 tokens to every session and 3,113 once invoked, about $0.0003 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.
