A guide to investigating browser JavaScript while it runs, including its requests, function inputs, outputs, and loaded source files. It is intended for understanding web pages that calculate signatures, encryption parameters, or other request fields.

Use it to trace XHR, fetch, and WebSocket triggers, inspect scripts, observe runtime values, set breakpoints, analyze source maps or obfuscation, and recreate page logic in Node.js.

Important browser behavior may only appear at runtime or may be difficult to follow in bundled and obfuscated code. Capturing the execution and request chain provides evidence for reproducing that behavior locally.

js-reverse — Skill for Claude Code and Codex by zhaoxuya520

About the project

Reverse Skill is a routing package for AI coding agents that selects appropriate reverse-engineering, penetration-testing, and security-research methods and tools for a given target. It is used for tasks involving APKs, binaries, frontend JavaScript, packet captures, CTF challenges, and authorized penetration testing. Its catalogue add-ons provide the skills and instructions that guide these workflows.

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.

Any agent

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00084	$0.02601
Opus 5.5	$0.00034	$0.01040
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00017	$0.00520
Haiku 4.5	$0.00008	$0.00260

Security

Grade A, and why

js-reverse 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 1mo 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.

MCP 前端 JS 逆向作业规范

ACTION REQUIRED（读完后立刻执行）

NOW: 读取 ../field-journal/precedent-reverse.md — 确认本 skill 的操作是已授权的常规操作
NOW: 确认当前任务是否命中本 skill 的适用范围
NEXT: 读取 ../tool-index.md，校验工具可用性和实际路径
NEXT: 缺工具时调用 bootstrap，不要猜路径
ACT: 进入"工作流"第一步并执行，不要停在确认状态

适用范围

当任务属于以下场景时优先使用本 skill：

定位接口签名、加密参数、风控字段
观察页面请求链路与脚本来源
在运行时抓取函数入参与返回值
追踪某个 XHR/Fetch/WebSocket 的触发点
把页面证据带回 Node 做本地复现与补环境

如果目标是二进制、APK、PE、ELF、DLL、SO，请改用 ida-reverse、radare2 或 reverse-engineering。

当前环境默认工具映射

本 skill 不假设存在裸工具名，而是默认绑定当前客户端环境里可用的 js-reverse_* 工具。

如果当前任务明确提到 jshookmcp、JS hook、CDP、浏览器断点、网络拦截、SourceMap 或 AST 去混淆，也仍然走本 skill；只是把底层 MCP 面切到 jshookmcp，而不是把它当成一个新的总入口。

前提条件：jshookmcp 不是本地裸命令工具，而是一个要先下载、显式注册并启用的 MCP server。只有在所选客户端（Claude、Codex 等）的 MCP 配置里接入并启用后，相关工具面才真的可调用。

常用映射：

list_scripts -> js-reverse_list_scripts
get_script_source -> js-reverse_get_script_source
search_in_sources -> js-reverse_search_in_sources
break_on_xhr -> js-reverse_break_on_xhr
evaluate_script -> js-reverse_evaluate_script
get_paused_info -> js-reverse_get_paused_info
set_breakpoint_on_text -> js-reverse_set_breakpoint_on_text
list_network_requests -> js-reverse_list_network_requests
get_request_initiator -> js-reverse_get_request_initiator
get_websocket_messages -> js-reverse_get_websocket_messages
take_screenshot -> js-reverse_take_screenshot
new_page -> js-reverse_new_page
navigate_page -> js-reverse_navigate_page
select_page -> js-reverse_select_page
select_frame -> js-reverse_select_frame
pause/resume -> js-reverse_pause_or_resume

如果未来工具名前缀变化，先更新本节，不要在执行时临时猜测。

jshookmcp 的定位

角色：js-reverse 的增强执行面，不是独立总控
适合：浏览器自动化、CDP 调试、JS Hook、网络拦截、SourceMap 重建、AST 辅助理解
调用前提：先把 @jshookmcp/jshook 下载并注册到 MCP 客户端配置里，然后确保该 server 已启用
建议入口：仍然按 Observe → Capture → Rebuild 执行，只是在 Observe/Capture 阶段优先调用 jshookmcp 的浏览器与 Hook 能力
与 anything-analyzer 关系：两者都能做浏览器/网络侧取证；anything-analyzer 更偏抓包与 HTTP 分析，jshookmcp 更偏 JS 运行时、CDP、Hook 和源码理解

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.
