metasploit

metasploit is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Encod3d-Sec/TORCH. It costs 124 tokens per session (1,051 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for using Metasploit, a security-testing framework, to inspect services, test known vulnerabilities, obtain authorised test sessions, and perform follow-up checks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to scan services, search and verify exploit modules, handle reverse-shell sessions, suggest local privilege checks, and route traffic through an approved host.
Why use it?
It keeps reconnaissance, vulnerability selection, verification, remote sessions, and network pivots in one documented process instead of relying on remembered commands.

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

metasploit 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 5d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 63 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Metasploit: framework driver

Drive msfconsole for recon, exploit, reverse shells, and post-ex. Syntax lives in [[metasploit]]; this skill is the workflow that strings it together.

Pre-attack wiki query (MANDATORY)

Before firing any exploit module, query the fingerprinted tech/CVE: read [[metasploit]] directly for syntax, then Skill(arsenal) for the matching module/payload/technique. Never fire a module from memory when a targeted lookup would confirm the right one/target index.

Setup / DB

msfconsole -q in a named tmux tab, never a blind background job, the operator needs to see sessions land live. workspace -a <eng> scopes loot to the engagement, db_status confirms the Postgres backend is up before anything else. Cheatsheet: Setup + Database sections.

Recon via msf

db_nmap writes straight to hosts/services; layer auxiliary/scanner/* (smb/http/ssh version + vuln checks) on top for anything plain nmap scripts miss. This complements the ctf-box Phase-1 basics, it does not replace them, run both.

Search / select / verify

search <app> <ver> or search cve:<id>, use, info to read the module's CVE refs and target list, check before run/exploit whenever the module supports it, a non-destructive exploitability test beats a blind fire. Cheatsheet: Search and Selection + Options and Running.

Reverse shells

multi/handler catches. Payload choice: meterpreter first (linux/x64/meterpreter/reverse_tcp / windows/x64/meterpreter/reverse_tcp), fall back to plain shell_reverse_tcp when meterpreter is blocked or unstable, routine on hardened Windows/EDR. Delivery via msfvenom (ELF/EXE/ASPX/PHP, cheatsheet's MSFVenom section has every format). Egress-test the LPORT (80/443/53 before 4444). Background the handler correctly: set ExitOnSession false; run -j so it keeps catching new sessions. On the VM, scripts/vm-handler.sh <eng> <lhost> [payload] automates the LPORT choice: it reads the VM's listeners and picks the first FREE egress-friendly port (80/443/53/8000/8080), so the handler never fails to bind on a taken port nor silently picks a filtered high port; it launches in the engagement's msf tmux window and prints the LPORT to build the payload with.

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.

metasploit is a skill published in the GitHub repository Encod3d-Sec/TORCH (286 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 124 tokens to every session and 1,051 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.
