go-authcrunch: Skill for Codex

.codex/skills/threat-hunting/SKILL.md

threat-hunting is a skill for Codex from greenpau/go-authcrunch. It costs 47 tokens per session (3,134 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A security review guide that treats authentication, authorization, redirects, tokens, cookies, headers, parsers, caches, and cryptography as possible security boundaries. It turns security claims into checks against actual program behavior.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when reviewing or fixing security-sensitive code, especially identity checks, access control, request parsing, credential transport, and cryptographic decisions.
Why use it?
It helps find authentication bypasses, authorization mistakes, unsafe redirects, token problems, and other vulnerabilities that may be hidden behind shortcuts or assumptions.

Skill for Codex

Written for Codex: agents/openai.yaml present.

This is greenpau/go-authcrunch's own configuration. It tells Codex how to work on go-authcrunch itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything go-authcrunch configures →

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

threat-hunting 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 12d 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.

Threat Hunting

Operating Posture

Treat every authentication shortcut, authorization shortcut, redirect, token source, cookie, forwarded header, parser, cache, and cryptographic decision as a security boundary until proven otherwise.

Skepticism is a verification mode, not a reason to dismiss a report. Translate claims into falsifiable checks, then test or inspect the exact runtime behavior.

Core authorization question — answer it for every protected path:

  1. What object is being authorized?
  2. What object is later served, proxied, redirected to, or trusted?
  3. Are those objects represented by the same normalized value?
  4. Which checks execute before token validation, ACL evaluation, or signature verification?

Remediation follows coding-directives, validation follows testing-and-ci, and tool side effects follow scripts-and-automation. Use authorization-policy-oauth to audit direct-policy callbacks, opaque sessions, browser/origin binding, and logout. Use local-password-authentication to review enumeration defenses, work schedules, and trusted password imports. Use local-identity-database to audit durable credential, replay, lockout, and cross-instance transaction boundaries. Use authentication-portal-profile to review canonical account selection and identity-bound self-service. Use authentication-portal-mfa to review factor checkpoints, proof binding, and enrollment. Use saml-identity-provider to review signed assertions, request/browser binding, and authoritative certificate pins.


Severity Rubric

Severity Criteria
Critical Unauthenticated authn/authz bypass, token forgery, RCE, secret exfiltration
High Authenticated privilege escalation, open redirect to authn bypass, session fixation
Medium Unintended token/secret leakage outside explicit admin debug diagnostics, missing cookie security flags, SSRF with limited reach
Low Defense-in-depth gap, hardening issue with no direct exploit path
Info Coding pattern risk, missing test coverage, informational finding

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.
