apk-analysis

apk-analysis is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from NUSGreyhats/ctf-agent-workstation. It costs 167 tokens per session (1,402 once invoked), scanned A, original, GPL-3.0.

A workflow for examining Android application package files, known as APKs, by unpacking resources and reading their code. It uses tools such as apktool, jadx, and IDA Pro when native libraries are involved.

In plain words
What is it for?
Reverse engineering Android APKs, inspecting manifests and resources, converting DEX files to readable Java or Kotlin, examining smali code, and analysing native .so libraries.
Why use it?
It helps identify where an Android app's behaviour lives, including code hidden in native compiled libraries. The workflow focuses on the specific tools needed for manifests, resources, smali, decompiled code, and repackaging.

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

apk-analysis 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.
