retest-verification

retest-verification is a skill for Codex from Eliyce/paqad-ai. It costs 17 tokens per session (541 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A follow-up security review that checks earlier penetration-test findings against new evidence. It labels each finding as fixed, still open, or needing manual verification.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to retest findings from a previous report and produce a status decision for each original issue.
Why use it?
It prevents teams from assuming a reported vulnerability was fixed without checking the current code, documentation, or runtime behavior.

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

retest-verification 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 9d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/lint-output.sh, scripts/load-source-findings.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 it actually says

What It Does

Replays prior pentest findings against fresh project evidence so retest reports can classify each finding as fixed, still open, or requiring manual verification.

Use This When

Use this only for the pentest-retest workflow when a prior pentest report has already identified findings to verify.

Inputs

  • Read the source pentest sidecar first.
  • Read references/retest-status-rules.md before assigning statuses.
  • Read fresh evidence gathered during the current retest run.

Procedure

  1. Run scripts/load-source-findings.sh <sidecar.json> — validates the schema and emits one JSON row per finding to iterate over.
  2. For each id, gather fresh code/docs/advisory/runtime evidence and pick a status from assets/status-vocabulary.txt (fixed | still-open | needs-manual-verification).
  3. New gaps (not in the source report) belong in a separate report; never silently merge them here.
  4. Format per assets/output.template.md; validate with scripts/lint-output.sh <retest.md> <sidecar.json> — fails if any id is invented.

Output Contract

  • Match assets/output.template.md: ## Retest Decisions with ### {{id}} → {{status}} per finding plus Original title, Severity, Fresh evidence, Reasoning.
  • Status must be fixed | still-open | needs-manual-verification.
  • Output must pass scripts/lint-output.sh (exit 0).

Escalate / Stop Conditions

  • Ask when the source report sidecar is missing fields required to replay a finding.
  • Warn when fresh evidence is blocked and the finding depends on runtime validation.
  • Do not invent a fixed status when the current evidence is merely absent.

Resources

  • references/retest-status-rules.md
  • scripts/load-source-findings.sh
  • scripts/lint-output.sh
  • assets/output.template.md
  • assets/status-vocabulary.txt
  • agents/openai.yaml
Files

What ships with it

6 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.

retest-verification is a skill published in the GitHub repository Eliyce/paqad-ai (8 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 17 tokens to every session and 541 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-09-03.
