bug-bounty

bug-bounty is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Mikacr1138/claude-bug-bounty. It costs 323 tokens per session (13,132 once invoked), scanned C, a copy of bug-bounty, MIT.

A complete workflow for finding and reporting security vulnerabilities through bug-bounty programs. It covers learning about a target, discovering its public systems, testing for common web bugs, checking findings, and writing reports.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to research a target, map its domains and technologies, look for bugs such as access-control flaws or cross-site scripting, confirm real impact, and prepare a submission.
Why use it?
It gives security testing a structured path and filters out theoretical or harmless issues that are unlikely to qualify as valid reports.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; positional $N argument; mentions Claude Code.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is semgrep --config=p/javascript ./src/.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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 C, and why

bug-bounty scanned grade C with 5 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 11d 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.

Instruction-override phrasingmediumPrompt injection

Text telling the model to disregard its earlier instructions or safety rules is the shape of a prompt injection, whoever wrote it.

| ASI01 | Prompt injection | Override system prompt via user input -- make agent ignore its rules |

Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.

Sends data to an external URLlowData exfiltration

A POST to an outside endpoint may be telemetry or may be exfiltration; either way the mod talks to somewhere, and you should know where.

curl -s -X PUT "https://TARGET-APP.firebaseio.com/test.json" -d '"pwned"'

Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.

Cloud metadata endpointmediumServer-side request forgery

One request to 169.254.169.254 can return temporary IAM credentials.

| SSRF (any) | Cloud metadata 169.254.169.254 | IAM credential exfil -> RCE |

Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.

Makes network callslowCapability

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

code=$(curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}" "https://${TARGET}-${suffix}.s3.amazonaws.com/")

Expected in a hook, worth knowing in a rule or an instructions file.

Bug Bounty Master Workflow

Full pipeline: Recon -> Learn -> Hunt -> Validate -> Report. One skill for everything.

THE ONLY QUESTION THAT MATTERS

"Can an attacker do this RIGHT NOW against a real user who has taken NO unusual actions -- and does it cause real harm (stolen money, leaked PII, account takeover, code execution)?"

If the answer is NO -- STOP. Do not write. Do not explore further. Move on.

Theoretical Bug = Wasted Time. Kill These Immediately:

Pattern Kill Reason
"Could theoretically allow..." Not exploitable = not a bug
"An attacker with X, Y, Z conditions could..." Too many preconditions
"Wrong implementation but no practical impact" Wrong but harmless = not a bug
Dead code with a bug in it Not reachable = not a bug
Source maps without secrets No impact
SSRF with DNS-only callback Need data exfil or internal access
Open redirect alone Need ATO or OAuth chain
"Could be used in a chain if..." Build the chain first, THEN report

You must demonstrate actual harm. "Could" is not a bug. Prove it works or drop it.


CRITICAL RULES

  1. READ FULL SCOPE FIRST -- verify every asset/domain is owned by the target org
  2. NO THEORETICAL BUGS -- "Can an attacker steal funds, leak PII, takeover account, or execute code RIGHT NOW?" If no, STOP.
  3. KILL WEAK FINDINGS FAST -- run the 7-Question Gate BEFORE writing any report
  4. Validate before writing -- check CHANGELOG, design docs, deployment scripts FIRST
  5. One bug class at a time -- go deep, don't spray
  6. Verify data isn't already public -- check web UI in incognito before reporting API "leaks"
  7. 5-MINUTE RULE -- if a target shows nothing after 5 min probing (all 401/403/404), MOVE ON
  8. IMPACT-FIRST HUNTING -- ask "what's the worst thing if auth was broken?" If nothing valuable, skip target
  9. CREDENTIAL LEAKS need exploitation proof -- finding keys isn't enough, must PROVE what they access
  10. STOP SHALLOW RECON SPIRALS -- don't probe 403s, don't grep for analytics keys, don't check staging domains that lead nowhere
  11. BUSINESS IMPACT over vuln class -- severity depends on CONTEXT, not just vuln type
  12. UNDERSTAND THE TARGET DEEPLY -- before hunting, learn the app like a real user
  13. DON'T OVER-RELY ON AUTOMATION -- automated scans hit WAFs, trigger rate limits, find the same bugs everyone else finds
  14. HUNT LESS-SATURATED VULN CLASSES -- XSS/SSRF/XXE have the most competition. Expand into: cache poisoning, Android/mobile vulns, business logic, race conditions, OAuth/OIDC chains, CI/CD pipeline attacks
  15. ONE-HOUR RULE -- stuck on one target for an hour with no progress? SWITCH CONTEXT
  16. TWO-EYE APPROACH -- combine systematic testing (checklist) with anomaly detection (watch for unexpected behavior)
  17. T-SHAPED KNOWLEDGE -- go DEEP in one area and BROAD across everything else

bug-bounty is a skill published in the GitHub repository Mikacr1138/claude-bug-bounty (2 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 323 tokens to every session and 13,132 once invoked, about $0.0016 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 5 findings (instruction-override phrasing, sends data to an external url, cloud metadata endpoint). It is 95% identical to bug-bounty, differing in 8 lines, and is treated as a copy.
