pentest-tools

pentest-tools is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Netw0rkNoob/VulnClaw. It costs 66 tokens per session (525 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A Chinese-language quick reference for penetration testing tools, covering reconnaissance, vulnerability testing, password attacks, privilege escalation, and related tasks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find commands and tool choices for network, web, Windows, Linux, domain, credential, tunneling, and exploitation work during authorized security tests.
Why use it?
It helps security testers select tools and recall commands after the testing direction or vulnerability type is already known.

About the project

VulnClaw is an AI-driven command-line penetration-testing agent that turns natural-language instructions into an automated workflow for reconnaissance, vulnerability discovery, exploitation, and report generation. It is intended for authorized penetration tests, CTF competitions, security teaching, and red-team exercises, using LLMs and MCP tools. The catalogue contains its specialized skills for security-testing tasks.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • high YARA Match · line 26

    Fix: Remove offensive tool references and exploit code. Legitimate agent skills should not contain penetration testing tools, exploit frameworks, or reconnaissance utilities.

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

pentest-tools 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 10d 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.

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.
