vulnpilot-mcp: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/oss-audit/SKILL.md

oss-vulnerability-audit is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from arojit/vulnpilot-mcp. It costs 45 tokens per session (690 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A skill for checking open-source software dependencies for publicly known security weaknesses, including CVEs, which are identifiers for reported vulnerabilities. It uses the VulnPilot MCP server and supports Python, npm, Maven, and Gradle projects.

In plain words
What is it for?
Reading dependency manifests and lock files, checking package versions, analyzing reachability, and producing a security or supply-chain risk report.
Why use it?
It helps identify vulnerable packages and assess whether a vulnerability can be reached from the project. It also keeps unverified findings from being presented as confirmed facts.

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

oss-vulnerability-audit 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 1mo 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.

OSS Vulnerability Audit with VulnPilot

Use the VulnPilot MCP server tools whenever the user asks to:

  • Audit dependencies for vulnerabilities
  • Check if a package version is vulnerable
  • Analyze reachability of a dependency
  • Generate a security report
  • Perform supply-chain or OSS risk analysis

Workflow

1. Identify Dependencies

Read the project's manifest file to extract dependency names and versions:

Ecosystem Files to read
PyPI pyproject.toml, requirements.txt, uv.lock, poetry.lock
npm package.json, package-lock.json, yarn.lock
Maven pom.xml
Gradle build.gradle, build.gradle.kts

2. Check Each Package

For every dependency, call the VulnPilot check_package tool:

check_package(
    package_name="<name>",
    version="<version>",
    ecosystem="PyPI"  # or npm, Maven, Gradle
)

3. Analyze Reachability (for vulnerable packages)

For each vulnerable package, call analyze_reachability:

analyze_reachability(
    project_path="/absolute/path/to/project",
    package_name="<name>",
    ecosystem="PyPI"
)

Then re-call check_package with the reachability and scope info to refine priority:

check_package(
    package_name="<name>",
    version="<version>",
    ecosystem="PyPI",
    is_reachable=True,
    dependency_scope="production"
)

4. Generate Report

After all packages are checked, aggregate the results and call generate_report:

generate_report(
    results=[...],           # list of PackageReport objects
    project_name="my-app",
    ecosystem="PyPI",
    output_dir=".vulnpilot"
)

This produces a self-contained HTML report saved to .vulnpilot/.

5. Summarize

Present a concise summary to the user:

  • Total packages scanned vs vulnerable
  • Breakdown by priority (IMMEDIATE > URGENT > HIGH > NORMAL)
  • Top recommended actions
  • Path to the saved HTML report

Priority Levels

Priority Meaning Action
IMMEDIATE Listed in CISA KEV — actively exploited Patch today
URGENT Reachable + EPSS ≥ 50% Fix this sprint
HIGH Production + CRITICAL severity Plan for next release
NORMAL Lower risk Track and address at convenience

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.

oss-vulnerability-audit is a skill published in the GitHub repository arojit/vulnpilot-mcp (1 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 45 tokens to every session and 690 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-08-31.
