ctf-forensics-extraction

ctf-forensics-extraction is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from zebbern/termstack. It costs 43 tokens per session (1,249 once invoked), scanned A, original, no licence file.

A toolkit for extracting hidden information from files and network captures in Capture the Flag (CTF) security puzzles. It covers disk images, metadata, steganography, PCAP traffic captures, and memory dumps.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect disk images, recover data from memory dumps, examine network traffic, find metadata, and uncover hidden messages in CTF challenges.
Why use it?
It helps you avoid manually inspecting every layer of a suspicious file or capture. The pipeline brings common forensic extraction steps into one repeatable process.

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

ctf-forensics-extraction 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 yesterday.

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.

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.
