000-docs/6767-a-SPEC-DR-STND-claude-code-plugins-standard.mdAudit a Node.js project's installed npm dependency tree for known CVEs by wrapping the npm audit JSON output and emitting findings in the canonical penetration-tester schema. Detects direct AND transitive vulnerabilities, normalizes npm's severity scale (info/low/moderate/ high/critical) to the shared Severity enum, and parses both v1 and v2 audit output formats so the skill works against npm 6 and npm 7+ lockfiles. Use when: pre-merge gate on a Node project, post-incident sweep after a transitive package compromise (e.g. event-stream, ua-parser, node-ipc, color.js), SOC2 vendor-management evidence collection, or auditing an inherited or acquired Node codebase. Threshold: any HIGH or CRITICAL CVE in the resolved dependency tree. MODERATE / LOW reported informationally. Trigger with: "audit npm deps", "npm vulnerability scan", "check node packages for CVEs", "npm audit".
Audit a Python project's installed dependencies for known CVEs by wrapping pip-audit (PyPA's official vulnerability auditor) and emitting findings in the canonical penetration-tester schema. Detects vulnerable direct AND transitive packages, normalizes pip-audit's severity output via OSV severity bands, falls back to pip list --outdated when pip-audit isn't installed, and supports requirements.txt, pyproject.toml (PEP 621), Pipfile.lock, and poetry.lock as input sources. Use when: pre-merge gate on a Python project, post-incident sweep after a PyPI compromise (e.g. ctx, request-toolbelt typosquats, ultralytics 8.3.42 compromise), SOC2 evidence collection, or inheriting an unfamiliar Python codebase. Threshold: any HIGH or CRITICAL CVE in the resolved dependency tree. MODERATE / LOW reported informationally. Trigger with: "audit python deps", "pip vulnerability scan", "check pypi packages for CVEs", "pip-audit run".
Audit a project's dependency licenses against an explicit policy (allow-list / deny-list / review-required) and flag incompatibilities before they ship to production. Reads SPDX license identifiers from npm package manifests, Python METADATA / PKG-INFO files, and pyproject.toml; classifies each license by family (permissive, weak-copyleft, strong-copyleft, proprietary, unknown); detects copyleft contamination and SPDX-incompatible license combinations. Use when: pre-release legal review, M&A code-audit due diligence, preparing an OSS attribution NOTICE file, or switching a project's own license. Threshold: any GPL-family license in a project declaring MIT or Apache-2.0; any UNKNOWN-license package; any metadata-vs-source license mismatch. Trigger with: "check licenses", "license compliance audit", "SPDX scan", "GPL contamination check".
Read findings JSONL files from cluster 1-4 skills, deduplicate by fingerprint, group by severity, and compose a deliverable- grade markdown vulnerability report with per-finding sections (title, severity, target, detail, remediation, evidence) and a top-level summary table. The canonical written artifact a customer receives at engagement close; precise, reproducible, machine- checkable against source findings. Use when: closing an engagement, generating an interim report, regenerating after CVE or OWASP enrichment, or producing the input for generating-executive-summary. Threshold: findings missing required fields are dropped. HIGH and CRITICAL findings highlighted in the summary section. Trigger with: "compose vuln report", "write pentest report", "generate vulnerability deliverable", "render findings to report".
Verify that a penetration test has explicit, written, signed authorization before any scanning begins. Reads a Rules-of- Engagement (ROE) attestation file, validates required fields (authorizer, in-scope targets, time window, emergency contact, signature), checks the signer against an allowlist, and emits a CRITICAL finding if anything is missing. Designed as the first skill the orchestrator routes to. Use when: starting a new engagement, after a scope change, or before any cluster 1-4 scan skill runs. Threshold: any missing or unsigned ROE field; any time-window expiry; any in-scope target outside the authorized list. Trigger with: "confirm authorization", "verify ROE", "check pentest authz", "pre-flight authorization".
Parse the ROE scope definition, enumerate every in-scope target (hostnames, IPs, CIDRs, URLs, cloud accounts, SaaS tenants), validate syntax, detect overlap with out-of-scope or known third-party SaaS ranges, and emit a normalized target list plus IP allowlist for scanning tools. Runs after confirming-pentest- authorization and before any cluster 1-4 scan. Use when: starting an engagement, expanding scope mid-engagement, validating that a target list matches the ROE, or generating an allowlist for an external scanner. Threshold: malformed syntax, in-scope overlap with out-of-scope, reserved or third-party SaaS ranges without acknowledgement. Trigger with: "define scope", "enumerate targets", "validate target list", "generate IP allowlist".
