reporting-phase

A pentest reporting guide for turning security-test findings into a consistent report. It defines the details each finding should include, such as evidence, impact, severity, and remediation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to write an executive summary, describe testing methods and attack paths, group findings by severity, and summarize affected hosts.
Why use it?
It removes the need to decide from scratch how to document each issue and helps keep important proof and context together.

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

reporting-phase 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 2d 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.

Report Generation Guide

Finding Format

Each finding should include:

### [SEVERITY] Finding Title
- **Target**: IP:port or URL
- **CVSS/Severity**: Critical/High/Medium/Low/Info
- **CVE**: CVE-XXXX-XXXXX (if applicable)
- **ATT&CK**: TXXXX (technique ID)
- **Status**: Confirmed / Exploited

**Description**: What the vulnerability is and why it matters.

**Evidence**: Command run + output proving the vulnerability.

**Impact**: What an attacker can achieve by exploiting this.

**Remediation**: Specific steps to fix the issue.

Report Structure

Executive Summary

  • Engagement scope and dates
  • Overall risk rating (Critical/High/Medium/Low)
  • Key findings count by severity
  • Top 3 most critical issues
  • Strategic recommendations (2-3 sentences)

Methodology

  • Phases performed
  • Tools used
  • Scope boundaries

Findings (grouped by severity)

  1. Critical findings
  2. High findings
  3. Medium findings
  4. Low findings
  5. Informational

Attack Path Narrative

Step-by-step description of successful attack chains:

  • Initial access vector
  • Privilege escalation path
  • Lateral movement
  • Data accessed

Host Summary Table

Host OS Services Vulns Access

Recommendations

Prioritized remediation list:

  1. Immediate (Critical/High) — fix within 48h
  2. Short-term (Medium) — fix within 30 days
  3. Long-term (Low/Info) — fix within 90 days

Severity Classification

  • Critical (CVSS 9.0-10.0): RCE, auth bypass, default creds on critical systems, full DB dump
  • High (CVSS 7.0-8.9): Arbitrary file read/write, privesc, SSRF to internal, stored XSS on admin
  • Medium (CVSS 4.0-6.9): Reflected XSS, sensitive info disclosure, missing security headers with impact
  • Low (CVSS 0.1-3.9): Version disclosure, minor info leaks, missing non-critical headers
  • Info (CVSS 0.0): Open ports, technology detection, informational findings

Output Formats

Use the report_gen tool to generate:

  • Markdown report (default)
  • JSON export (machine-readable)

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.

reporting-phase is a skill published in the GitHub repository s0ld13rr/pentestcode (566 stars, last pushed 11d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 24 tokens to every session and 579 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
