chipsec

chipsec is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from tourze/ai-infra. It costs 85 tokens per session (4,061 once invoked), scanned A, original, no licence file.

A firmware-analysis skill for examining UEFI and BIOS dump files with Intel’s Chipsec framework. UEFI and BIOS are the software that starts a computer before its operating system loads.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect firmware, check for named threats such as LoJax, list EFI files with hashes, extract NVRAM settings, and parse SPI flash descriptors.
Why use it?
It helps investigate firmware structure and possible malware or rootkits without manually parsing every part of a dump.

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

chipsec 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 8d 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.

Asks for rootlowPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

sudo mkdir -p /usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/logs

Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing 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.
