Recon Skills is a pack of security-testing skills covering reconnaissance, web applications, APIs, authentication, vulnerability validation, cloud infrastructure, and reporting. Security professionals use it for authorized assessments of systems they own or have written permission to test. The catalogue entries are individual skills from the pack.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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 5.1 | $0.00019 | $0.04050 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00010 | $0.02025 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00004 | $0.00810 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00405 |
Grade B, and why
wordpress-plugin-hunt scanned grade B with 2 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Downloads and executes remote codemediumSupply chain
curl | sh runs whatever the server returns today, which is not necessarily what it returned when this was reviewed.
curl --max-time 30 --connect-timeout 10 -sk "https://$TARGET/wp-json/gf/v2/forms" 2>/dev/null | python3 -m json.tool | head -20 Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.

WordPress Plugin Hunt Skill
Discover installed WordPress plugins through REST API namespace probing, readme.txt version detection, and HTML/JS source analysis. Cross-reference discovered versions against known CVEs for exploitation. WordPress plugin vulnerabilities are one of the most reliable paths to RCE — confirmed CVEs include Elementor, Slider Revolution, ElementsKit, Gravity Forms, Jetpack, WooCommerce, and LiteSpeed Cache.
When to Use
- WordPress confirmed on target (via
wp-mass-recon). - Running
deep-invadePhase 3. - You need an exploitation vector beyond CORS/XMLRPC.
- Target has a plugin-heavy WordPress site (e-commerce, page builder, forms).
Prerequisites
terminalwith curl, python3.- WordPress target confirmed (
/wp-json/or/wp-login.phpaccessible). - For CVE exploitation: knowledge of specific CVE PoCs (reference
security-arsenalskill).
How to Run
# Quick plugin namespace scan (30+ plugins)
TARGET="example.com"
for ns in "revslider/v1" "elementskit/v1" "elementor/v1" "gf/v2" "wc/v3" \
"jetpack/v4" "litespeed/v1" "yoast/v1" "acf/v3" "contact-form-7/v1" \
"solidwp-mail/v1" "wpsl/v1" "redirection/v1" "rankmath/v1"; do
code=$(curl -sk -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}" --max-time 5 --connect-timeout 5 "https://$TARGET/wp-json/$ns")
[[ "$code" != "404" ]] && echo "FOUND: /wp-json/$ns (HTTP $code)"
done

| LiteSpeed Cache | < 6.5.0 | CVE-2024-50550 | Privilege escalation | ~15% |
| WooCommerce | N/A (API exposure) | N/A | Order/customer data | 42% |
| Yoast SEO | N/A (sitemap enum) | N/A | Author email leak | 42% |
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.

wordpress-plugin-hunt is a skill published in the GitHub repository uphiago/recon-skills (1,242 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 19 tokens to every session and 4,050 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 2 findings (downloads and executes remote code, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
