Authorized Target Adapter
Use this skill before adapting a real target beyond localhost or public labs.
Required Scope
- authorization statement
allowed_hosts
- allowed modes
- rate limit
- stop condition
- kill switch
- evidence redaction rule
Positive Gate
Any positive capability claim must include:
- final business API acceptance
- repeat direct interface acceptance without live browser profile dependency
- server-side business ledger or equivalent authoritative business data proof
business_data_status=DATA_ASSERTION_PASS
Non-Authorized Targets
For unknown third-party production targets, use observation-only diagnostics. Do not automate challenge challenges, token clearance, WAF evasion, or high-concurrency tests.
Workflow
Use configs/range_scope_contract.yaml before adapting any target. Route official demos to readonly observation, localhost labs to scoped action replay, and authorized targets to business-data assertions with stop conditions.
Success Criteria
Accept a positive adapter result only when final business API acceptance, repeat direct interface acceptance, concurrency ladder, redaction, and ledger-backed assertions pass for the same run_id.
Boundaries
This skill is not responsible for defeating WAF/challenge controls on unknown third-party or production-unverified targets. Those scopes remain observation-only with manual handoff.
Governance
Write back run_id, evidence path, known failures, and eval backlog before promotion. Drift requires replaying scope, business-data, and capability-promotion gates.
