thick-client

thick-client is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Saprophytic-seattle561/reverse-skill. It costs 30 tokens per session (643 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of thick-client, MIT.

A checklist and workflow for testing desktop applications, such as Windows, macOS, or Linux clients. It examines both the computer-side parts and the network connections they use.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for reviewing desktop app files, credentials, databases, update systems, network traffic, and client-side security checks.
Why use it?
It helps uncover risks that a normal web security review can miss, including unsafe local storage, weak process communication, and insecure updates.

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

thick-client 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 4d 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 it actually says

Thick Client Security Testing

ACTION REQUIRED(读完后立刻执行)

  1. NOW: 读取 ../field-journal/precedent-pentest.md
  2. NOW: 确认目标是 桌面厚客户端(Win/macOS/Linux GUI 或服务伴生),非纯 Web
  3. NOW: case-init;安装包来源与测试账号写入 scope
  4. NEXT: 工具(Burp 上游代理、进程监控、逆向工具)
  5. ACT: 信任边界图 → 本地面 → 网络面 → 更新/供应链

适用场景

  • C/S 架构客户端、Electron/Qt/.NET WinForms/WPF
  • 本地配置/凭证存储、IPC、命名管道
  • 客户端强制校验绕过研究(授权)
  • 自动更新通道与代码签名验证

工作流

1. 建边界

□ 进程树、子进程、驱动/服务
□ 监听端口与出站域名
□ 本地敏感路径:%APPDATA%、Keychain、注册表

2. 本地攻击面

□ 明文配置、硬编码密钥、调试开关
□ DLL 劫持/搜索顺序(Windows)
□ 数据库文件(SQLite)权限与加密
□ IPC:谁可连接?是否鉴权?

3. 网络面

□ 系统代理 / 应用自定义 TLS
□ 证书钉扎 → 联合 mobile/js 方法学或 Frida
□ API 越权:客户端隐藏的管理接口

4. 逆向验证

□ .NET → dotnet-reverse;原生 → ida/ghidra;Electron → asar + js-reverse

工具链

工具 用途
Process Monitor / API Monitor 行为
Burp / mitmproxy 流量
dnSpy / IDA / Ghidra 逆向
Sysinternals Windows 面
asar / nexe 检测 Electron

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
