hunt-dispatch

name	hunt-dispatch
description	Skill-set loader for /hunt orchestrator. Fingerprints the target, picks the right platform attack skills, and loads the Red Team or WAPT skill set. Use when /hunt has just received a mode answer (redteam or wapt + blackbox|greybox) and needs to load the appropriate skills and print the taxonomy. Not for direct user invocation.

hunt-dispatch

skill-set loader for /hunt. one concept (which skills to load), one place.

invocation contract:

hunt-dispatch mode=redteam
hunt-dispatch mode=wapt box=blackbox
hunt-dispatch mode=wapt box=greybox

step 1 — fingerprint (red team only)

fingerprint every live host, not just the apex. for multi-host / wildcard targets the platform-skill routing must be driven by all banners, not one host's.

use -L (follow redirects) — identity-provider and CDN signals (login.microsoftonline.com, okta, auth0, CDN banners) routinely sit behind a 30x, so a no-redirect curl -sI silently misses those matches. pull both headers and the landing-page HTML (__NEXT_DATA__, VIEWSTATE, laravel_session, Ignition, framework markers live in the body, not headers).

HOSTS="$TARGET"
if [ -f "recon/$TARGET/live-hosts.txt" ]; then
  HOSTS=$(cat "recon/$TARGET/live-hosts.txt")
fi
for H in $HOSTS; do
  echo "=== $H ==="
  # -L follow redirects, -D - dump headers, -o body; cap body to keep context small
  curl -sSL -m 12 -D - -o /tmp/fp_body "https://$H" 2>/dev/null | tr -d '\r'
  # surface body-only platform markers
  grep -aoE '__NEXT_DATA__|/_next/|VIEWSTATE|rO0[AB]|laravel_session|Ignition|Telescope|Whitelabel|/actuator|application/grpc|socket\.io|swagger|\.js\.map' \
    /tmp/fp_body | sort -u
done
rm -f /tmp/fp_body

if live-hosts.txt is absent, the loop still runs once against $TARGET. record which signal came from which host — a platform skill matched on host B does not imply host A runs that stack.

look for the following signals → platform skill mapping:

okta.com | auth0.com | pingidentity         →  okta-attack

conflict resolution & load budget

real targets almost always return multiple signals at once — e.g. a single host can show Cloudflare (CDN) + login.microsoftonline.com (redirect) + __NEXT_DATA__ (Next.js front end) + amazonaws (origin) simultaneously. loading every match blindly can pull 20-plus skills and blow the context window, drowning the high-signal skill in noise. apply this precedence and cap:

priority order (load highest tiers first, stop at the cap):

tier 1  identity / SSO fabric    okta-attack, m365-entra-attack
        (own the auth boundary — highest blast radius if compromised)
tier 2  perimeter appliances     enterprise-vpn-attack, vmware-vcenter-attack
        (pre-auth RCE / direct internal foothold)
tier 3  cloud / IAM              cloud-iam-deep, hunt-cloud-misconfig
        (credential → lateral movement)
tier 4  app framework / stack    hunt-nextjs, hunt-nodejs, hunt-laravel,
        hunt-springboot, hunt-aspnet, hunt-sharepoint
tier 5  protocol / class signals hunt-nosqli, hunt-lfi, hunt-deserialization,
        hunt-cors, hunt-host-header, hunt-open-redirect, hunt-grpc,
        hunt-websocket, hunt-dom, hunt-k8s, hunt-cicd, hunt-source-leak,
        hunt-tls-network, hunt-ldap, hunt-brute-force, hunt-session

load budget: cap platform-skill loads at 8. if more than 8 match, keep the highest-tier 8 and drop the rest; print the dropped ones under deferred: in the taxonomy block so they can be loaded on demand later.

de-dup rules (avoid loading two skills for the same evidence):

• CDN banner alone (Cloudflare/Akamai/Fastly) is not a platform match — it fingerprints the edge, not the app. do not load a skill for it; note it for hunt-cache-poison / hunt-http-smuggling, which the mode set already carries.
• amazonaws / azure / googleapis in a header/origin → cloud-iam-deep. the same string found as a leaked key/JSON in a JS bundle or APK → still cloud-iam-deep, but flag it as a live-credential lead (higher priority, tier 3 becomes tier 1 for that host).
• a framework marker (__NEXT_DATA__, laravel_session) and a generic class signal (?redirect=, Access-Control-Allow-Origin) on the same host → load the framework skill (tier 4) and keep the class skill only if budget remains; the WAPT/redteam mode set already loads the common class skills unconditionally.

step 2 — load skill set

invoke each skill in order via the Skill tool.

mode=redteam

always-on (load first):

redteam-mindset
mid-engagement-ir-detection

platform (load second, conditional on fingerprint matches from step 1):

okta-attack
m365-entra-attack
enterprise-vpn-attack
vmware-vcenter-attack
cloud-iam-deep
supply-chain-attack-recon
apk-redteam-pipeline

high-impact hunt-* set (load third):

hunt-rce
hunt-sqli
hunt-ssrf
hunt-ato
hunt-auth-bypass
hunt-saml
hunt-oauth
hunt-mfa-bypass
hunt-file-upload
hunt-http-smuggling
hunt-cloud-misconfig
hunt-sharepoint
hunt-aspnet

report format: redteam-report-template (subject / observations / description / impact / recommendation / poc).

mode=wapt

always-on:

bb-methodology
security-arsenal
triage-validation

full hunt-* set (all OWASP-relevant):

hunt-xss             hunt-sqli            hunt-ssrf            hunt-idor
hunt-csrf            hunt-xxe             hunt-rce             hunt-graphql
hunt-oauth           hunt-saml            hunt-mfa-bypass      hunt-auth-bypass
hunt-ato             hunt-file-upload     hunt-business-logic  hunt-race-condition

hunt-aspnet          hunt-sharepoint      hunt-ntlm-info
hunt-lfi             hunt-nosqli          hunt-deserialization
hunt-cors            hunt-host-header     hunt-open-redirect
hunt-brute-force     hunt-session         hunt-ldap
hunt-nextjs          hunt-nodejs          hunt-dom
hunt-websocket       hunt-grpc            hunt-laravel
hunt-springboot      hunt-k8s             hunt-cicd
hunt-source-leak     hunt-tls-network

report format: report-writing (bugcrowd-reporting if the target is on bugcrowd).

box=greybox: creds already captured by /hunt, available in session memory.

do not fan out across the authenticated hunt-* set until the creds are validated. /hunt only prompts for and stores creds (commands/hunt.md) — it does not confirm they work. firing every authenticated test with dead, MFA-gated, or wrong-role creds wastes the whole run and produces false "no auth surface" conclusions. run a single low-cost auth preflight first:

# session-cookie creds: one authenticated GET against an identity echo endpoint
curl -sS -m 12 -b "$SESSION_COOKIE" "https://$TARGET/api/me" -w '\n%{http_code}\n'
#   200 + your username/email  → live session, role visible in body
#   401/403                    → dead or insufficient — STOP, re-auth

# bearer/JWT creds: same probe with Authorization
curl -sS -m 12 -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  "https://$TARGET/api/me" -w '\n%{http_code}\n'

# raw user/pass: drive the real login flow once, capture Set-Cookie, then echo
#   watch for an MFA / step-up challenge in the response — if present, the creds
#   alone do not yield an authenticated session (see memory: operator-capability)

confirm three things from the preflight, and record them for the hunt-* skills:

1. live — auth probe returns 200, not 401/403.
2. role/privilege — the /api/me (or equivalent) body shows the expected role/tenant/scopes. IDOR and authz tests need a known baseline identity; a silently-admin or silently-readonly cred skews every authz finding.
3. not MFA-gated — login did not stop at a 2fa/step-up challenge. if it did, you hold creds but not a session — default to least capability and confirm with the operator before claiming authenticated reach.

if the preflight fails, do not silently continue as blackbox — surface "greybox creds did not validate (HTTP {code} / MFA challenge)" so the operator can re-supply. only after a clean preflight: apply the validated session to every authenticated test.

step 3 — taxonomy print (once, at session start)

emit a deterministic block. plain text, lowercase, colon-delimited, no decoration.

mode=redteam

loaded for red team: {N} skills
  mindset:    redteam-mindset
  platform:   {fingerprint-matched skills (<=8, tier order), or "none detected"}
  deferred:   {platform skills past the 8-cap, or omit line if none}
  auth:       hunt-ato, hunt-auth-bypass, hunt-saml, hunt-oauth, hunt-mfa-bypass
  inj:        hunt-rce, hunt-sqli, hunt-ssrf, hunt-file-upload
  infra:      hunt-http-smuggling, hunt-cloud-misconfig
  stack:      hunt-sharepoint, hunt-aspnet
  ir:         mid-engagement-ir-detection

mode=wapt

loaded for wapt ({blackbox|greybox}): {N} skills
  inj:        hunt-xss, hunt-sqli, hunt-ssrf, hunt-rce, hunt-xxe, hunt-ssti, hunt-file-upload
  authz:      hunt-idor, hunt-auth-bypass, hunt-ato
  auth:       hunt-oauth, hunt-saml, hunt-mfa-bypass

  recon:      hunt-subdomain
  cloud:      hunt-cloud-misconfig
  ai:         hunt-llm-ai
  stack:      hunt-aspnet, hunt-sharepoint, hunt-ntlm-info
  misc:       hunt-misc, hunt-csrf
  reporting:  bb-methodology, security-arsenal, triage-validation

step 4 — return control to /hunt

after taxonomy print, hand control back to /hunt for step 3 (sibling delegation) and step 4 (active testing). do not run probes here — this skill only loads context.

privacy

never echo back, log, or persist:

• SOW / scope-of-work / engagement-letter content
• grey box credentials (kept in session memory by /hunt, never written to disk)
• client identifiers in user-level memory

Related Skills & Chains

• bb-methodology — When PART 0 mode confirmation completes. Workflow primitive: bb-methodology confirms engagement type (red team vs WAPT vs bug bounty); the answer feeds directly into this skill's mode=redteam / mode=wapt invocation.
• redteam-mindset + mid-engagement-ir-detection — When mode=redteam is loaded. Workflow primitive: these are the always-on skills loaded first by step 2 of the redteam flow before any platform skill or hunt-* skill.
• okta-attack / m365-entra-attack / enterprise-vpn-attack / vmware-vcenter-attack / cloud-iam-deep / supply-chain-attack-recon / apk-redteam-pipeline — When fingerprint signals match. Workflow primitive: step 1's curl fingerprint scan against recon/<target>/live-hosts.txt maps banner / domain signals to one or more of these platform skills.
• hunt-rce / hunt-sqli / hunt-ssrf / hunt-ato / *all other hunt- skills** — When the mode-specific skill set is being printed. Workflow primitive: this skill is the loader; it names the hunt-* skills but does not run probes — actual hunting happens after step 4 returns control to /hunt`.
• report-writing vs redteam-report-template — When the taxonomy print specifies the report format. Workflow primitive: mode=wapt ends with report-writing as the deliverable format; mode=redteam ends with redteam-report-template instead.
