A StackHawk security-reporting skill for querying scan results, findings, applications, and security status. StackHawk is a platform that scans web applications for security issues.

Use it to view findings, identify untriaged issues, inspect scan history, manage applications, review security posture, and triage results through the hawk command.

It provides a defined process for authentication, querying the platform, handling pagination, and presenting results instead of requiring raw API requests.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5	$0.00147	$0.02388
Opus 5	$0.00073	$0.01194
Sonnet 5	$0.00029	$0.00478
Haiku 4.5	$0.00015	$0.00239

Security

Grade A, and why

api scanned grade A 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 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.

StackHawk API Skill

This skill enables Claude to act as a security reporting agent against the StackHawk platform. The core workflow is:

Question → Authenticate → Query API via hawk op → Present Results → Suggest Next Actions

All platform queries run through the hawk binary's op subtree (hawk op …). It authenticates, refreshes tokens, follows pagination, and emits stable JSON. There is no raw-REST fallback — if hawk is unavailable, install it and run hawk init --browser rather than hand-rolling curl. See references/hawk-op-shortcuts.md.

Step 1: Assess Context

Before making any calls, check what's available:

Is hawk installed and configured? (hawk version reports v6.0.0 or greater)
```
# Identify the driving skill for CLI usage telemetry (read by hawk/hawkop).
export _STACKHAWK_SKILL=api
command -v hawk >/dev/null && hawk op status
```
- valid org + JWT → proceed.
- installed but unconfigured → hawk init --browser (interactive; the combined binary has no hawk op init — hawk init writes ~/.hawk/hawk.properties, which hawk op reads along with the HAWK_API_KEY env var).
- not installed → instruct the user to install the hawk CLI (docs: docs.stackhawk.com) and stop; do not fall back to curl.
Is hawk op authenticated? For local/agentic use, hawk init --browser stores credentials in ~/.hawk/hawk.properties — no env var needed for interactive sessions. Verify:
```
hawk op status
```
CI/CD only: If running in a pipeline, set HAWK_API_KEY as a secret. hawk op reads it directly — no config file required.
Is orgId known? Required for most endpoints.
- hawk op org get returns the active org UUID.
- hawk op org set <ID> switches the default org.

Route based on user intent:

User says...	Go to...
"What's my security posture?" or "dashboard"	Step 3 (org summary)
"Tell me about [app]'s findings" or "what needs attention"	Step 4 (app deep dive)
"What apps haven't been scanned recently?"	Step 3 with stale-app focus
"What changed since last week?" or "what's new"	Step 4 with diff recipe
"Show me untriaged findings"	Step 3, then drill into Step 4 for flagged apps

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.

api is a skill published in the GitHub repository stackhawk/agent-skills (15 stars, last pushed 12d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 147 tokens to every session and 2,388 once invoked, about $0.0007 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
