agent-bom-scan

agent-bom-scan is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from msaad00/agent-bom. It costs 66 tokens per session (2,795 once invoked), scanned B, original, Apache-2.0.

An open security scanner for coding agents, tool servers, packages, container images, filesystems, and software inventories. It checks for known vulnerabilities and can verify where software came from.

In plain words
What is it for?
Checking packages, scanning agent projects and container images, looking up CVEs, verifying Sigstore provenance, finding affected components, and generating an SBOM, a machine-readable list of software components.
Why use it?
It helps reveal vulnerable dependencies, risky containers, weak provenance, and the potential impact of a security issue.

Which agent this was written for is unclear — built for openclaw. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions Claude Code; reads ~/.codex paths.

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 B, and why

agent-bom-scan scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 8d 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.

agent-bom-scan — AI Supply Chain Vulnerability Scanner

Checks packages for CVEs, scans container images natively, verifies package provenance via Sigstore, scans filesystems, and generates SBOMs.

Install

pipx install agent-bom
agent-bom check langchain==0.1.0  # check a specific package with version
agent-bom scan --project . --no-discover  # scan the requested project
agent-bom scan --image nginx:1.25 --no-discover  # scan the requested image
agent-bom scan --sbom sbom.json --no-discover  # scan a supplied SBOM
agent-bom scan --project . --no-discover -f cyclonedx -o sbom.json  # requested output
agent-bom verify agent-bom   # verify Sigstore provenance

Choose the Target First

Use the narrowest input that satisfies the request. If the package/version, repository, image or SBOM is missing, ask for it. Do not interpret a generic "verify" or "is this safe" as permission to scan the host.

For explicit CLI targets, pass --no-discover; for the MCP scan tool, pass no_discover=True. An invalid, empty or unreadable target is a collection gap, not permission to fall back to home-directory or MCP-client discovery. Report the gap and ask for a valid target.

Home-directory configuration and MCP-client discovery require an explicit user request for those sources. The file_reads list discloses possible inputs; it does not authorize reading them. Do not use discovered cloud credentials. Cloud inventory requires the separately authorized cloud discovery skill.

Scans can write local state and vulnerability caches. Write reports or SBOMs only to requested output paths. Offline scans may have incomplete advisory coverage; preserve that qualification in the result.

As an MCP Server

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "agent-bom": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["agent-bom", "mcp", "server"]
    }
  }
}

When to Use

  • Check a named package and version for vulnerabilities.
  • Scan a specified image, repository or SBOM.
  • Look up a named CVE or advisory.
  • Generate an SBOM for a specified project.
  • Discover local MCP clients when the user explicitly requests that scope.

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.

agent-bom-scan is a skill published in the GitHub repository msaad00/agent-bom (31 stars, last pushed 8d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 66 tokens to every session and 2,795 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (reads agent configuration directories). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
