mobile-security

mobile-security is a skill for Claude Code from transilienceai/communitytools. It costs 90 tokens per session (2,446 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for testing Android and iPhone applications for security and privacy problems. It covers examining app files, observing an app while it runs, and checking how it stores data and protects connections.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review APK, AAB, and IPA files, inspect app code and settings, test runtime behavior, examine network traffic, and check Android or iOS privacy controls.
Why use it?
It brings together the checks needed to find exposed secrets, unsafe storage, weak encryption, privacy leaks, and problems in app permissions or communication.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • high Privilege Escalation · line 61
    Code accesses credential files (SSH keys, AWS credentials, etc.). This could indicate credential theft attempts.
    Fix: Remove references to credential paths. Use environment variables or secrets managers. For docs, use placeholder paths (e.g., /path/to/config). Never load .env or token files in production code paths.

    Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.
    Fix: Remove any persistence mechanisms (cron jobs, startup scripts, state files). Skills should not maintain state across sessions without explicit user consent.

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

mobile-security 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 1mo 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.

Mobile Security

Scope

End-to-end mobile application VAPT for Android (APK/AAB) and iOS (IPA), aligned to the OWASP MASVS v2.x control groups and the MASTG testing process. Four complementary tiers:

  1. Static reverse engineering of compiled artifacts — Dart AOT snapshots, Unity IL2CPP, React Native/Hermes bytecode, native ARM64 .so/Mach-O, smali. Recover secrets, endpoints, and the crypto contract without a device.
  2. SAST — manifest / Info.plist, exported-component & IPC surface, WebView, local storage, cryptographic-primitive weakness, code-signing, and automated baseline (MobSF/apkid/apkleaks) → then manual deep-dive.
  3. Dynamic analysis (DAST) — Frida/objection instrumentation, traffic interception, TLS-pinning bypass across stacks, Keychain/Keystore runtime dumps, IPC probing, and root/jailbreak/anti-tamper defeat for MAS-L2 / MASA scope.
  4. Privacy — data-collection inventory, tracker/SDK enumeration, PII leakage, declared-vs-actual (Play Data Safety / Apple Privacy Manifest).

Static dump first (faster, no device); dynamic is a first-class phase whenever a control can only be proven at runtime (enforced pinning, Keystore-backed keys, root reaction, IPC guards). Cross-asset stitching, scoring, and reporting are owned by sibling skills — this skill produces MASVS/MASTG-tagged findings and hands them off.

Coverage contract

In a coverage-mode engagement (pentest-engagement mobile mode) completion is code-enforced, not narrative. Two surfaces are gated, and both are mandatory:

Surface File Classes
The app bundle recon/inventory/mobile-surface.json the 15 MAS-* MASVS classes
The backend recovered from the bundle <apex>-api/recon/inventory/surface.json the ordinary OWASP API/web classes

The second row is where the material risk has historically been. A decompiled bundle hands you the full server contract, and that surface is not browser-reachable — so it is systematically under-tested by everyone, including the app's own developers. Recovering the endpoint inventory and driving it through the API classes is not an optional extra; a bundle that yields zero endpoints is treated as a failed acquisition.

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.

mobile-security is a skill published in the GitHub repository transilienceai/communitytools (591 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 90 tokens to every session and 2,446 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
