android-app-pentesting

android-app-pentesting is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from wgpsec/AboutSecurity. It costs 104 tokens per session (4,175 once invoked), scanned B, original, no licence file.

A guide to testing Android apps from their install packages and while they run. It covers code and manifest inspection, runtime instrumentation, network traffic, stored data, app components, WebViews, and device-protection checks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect APKs, analyse app code, intercept traffic, test SSL certificate pinning, examine Activity and Service access, review WebViews, and assess root-detection controls.
Why use it?
It helps testers find weaknesses in how an Android app stores data, communicates, exposes components, or protects itself from inspection.

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 B, and why

android-app-pentesting 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 4d 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 rootmediumPrivilege escalation

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

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.
