generate-poc

generate-poc is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from seqra/opentaint. It costs 22 tokens per session (1,465 once invoked), scanned C, original, Apache-2.0.

A tool that tests a suspected security issue against a running application using a Python script. A proof of concept is a small demonstration that a finding can actually be reproduced.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to start or connect to the application, send the test request for a selected finding, and record whether the vulnerability was reproduced.
Why use it?
It confirms dynamically whether a security finding identified by code analysis is a real problem in the live application.

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 C, and why

generate-poc scanned grade C 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 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 97 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Skill: Generate PoC

Try to dynamically reproduce the vulnerability found by SAST and confirmed statically. Test it on a running instance via a Python script, and record the outcome

Inputs

Provided by the caller, fall back to the default value when omitted. Ask back only when a required input is missing and has no sensible default

  • project-root (optional) — root of the target project. Opentaint keeps all analysis artifacts under the fixed <project-root>/.opentaint/ directory, so every .opentaint/... path below resolves there. Default: current directory
  • language (required) — target language for this project and language-specific instructions
  • finding (required) — the TP finding to reproduce, .opentaint/tracking/findings/<name>.yaml
  • base-url (optional) — the app's base URL when it is already running; otherwise build and start it

Workflow

1. Start the app

Reuse base-url if given. Otherwise build and start the app the way the project expects (possible build and run commands are in the language reference), wait until it's listening (healthy), and note the base URL — the PoC must hit a live instance. When the app needs backing services (DB, broker, cache, …), bring them all up with one docker compose on a shared network rather than starting each by hand, and register it as a single compose entry. Bind the instance to loopback (per Constraints). Once it's listening, register it (per Tracking) so the orchestrator can reap it later.

2. Map the finding to a live request

From the finding's source location find the entry point — the route and method, and the param / header / body field that carries the tainted input — and a payload that drives it to the sink. Some common shapes:

  • SQL injection — ?id=1' OR '1'='1
  • command injection — ?cmd=;cat /etc/passwd
  • path traversal — ?path=../../../etc/passwd
  • XSS — ?q=<script>alert(1)</script>
  • SSRF — ?url=http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/
  • XXE — an XML body with <!ENTITY xxe SYSTEM "file:///etc/passwd">

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.

generate-poc is a skill published in the GitHub repository seqra/opentaint (149 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 22 tokens to every session and 1,465 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 1 finding (cloud metadata endpoint). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
