stegg-cli

stegg-cli is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from elder-plinius/ST3GG. It costs 106 tokens per session (932 once invoked), scanned A, original, AGPL-3.0.

A command-line tool for steganography, the practice of hiding data inside images, and for examining images for hidden data. It also handles PNG chunks, EXIF metadata, and red-team payloads for testing.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to encode or decode hidden data, analyse images for steganography, add PNG or EXIF metadata, and create or test steganographic proof-of-concept payloads.
Why use it?
It brings several image-hiding and detection tasks into one subprocess-based command-line workflow, keeping its output out of the agent's context.

About the project

ST3GG is an open-source steganography toolkit that hides and detects secret data in files such as images, audio, documents, and network packets. People use it through a browser-based site or Python command-line, text-interface, and web-interface applications for encoding, decoding, and steganalysis. The catalogue skill extends agent workflows around this toolkit.

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

stegg-cli 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.

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.
