information-disclosure-methodology

information-disclosure-methodology is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from wgpsec/AboutSecurity. It costs 139 tokens per session (1,478 once invoked), scanned C, original, no licence file.

A security-testing guide for sensitive information disclosure, where an application or server unintentionally exposes files, source code, settings, or documentation. Examples include .git folders, backup archives, environment files, and debug pages.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to check web applications for exposed repositories, backups, configuration files, Swagger or OpenAPI documentation, and debug output. It also covers examining leaked Git, SVN, and directory metadata.
Why use it?
It helps uncover credentials and internal details that can reveal a direct path into the system. Reviewing leaked source and version-control history can expose deleted secrets as well.

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 C, and why

information-disclosure-methodology scanned grade C 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.

Reaches for credential fileshighPrivilege escalation

SSH keys, cloud credentials, git-credentials, .npmrc, /etc/shadow: reading these is how a config file becomes a credential leak.

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.
