syzlang-ioctl-basics

syzlang-ioctl-basics is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from UCSB-NLP-Chang/Skill-Usage. It costs 21 tokens per session (613 once invoked), scanned A, original, no licence file.

An introduction to syzlang syntax for describing ioctl system calls, which let programs send device-specific commands to the operating system.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to learn the basic structure and syntax needed to describe ioctl calls in syzkaller.
Why use it?
It gives a starting point for writing valid syscall descriptions for kernel testing.

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

syzlang-ioctl-basics 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 9d 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.

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.
