description	Initialize and manage the evidence collection directory for professional security audits with documented proof of findings.

Evidence Collection Management

🔴 CRITICAL: PROGRESSIVE FILE UPDATES REQUIRED

You MUST write evidence files AS YOU GO, not just at the end.

• Save each piece of evidence IMMEDIATELY after collection
• DO NOT wait until the skill completes to save evidence
• If the audit crashes or is interrupted, all prior evidence must already be saved

This is not optional. Failure to save evidence progressively is a critical error.

This skill initializes and manages the evidence collection system for professional security audits.

When to Use This Skill

• Automatically invoked at the start of supabase-pentest
• When you need to organize evidence for a professional report
• When conducting audits that require documented proof
• For compliance and legal purposes

Why Evidence Collection Matters

Professional security audits require:

Requirement	Purpose
Reproducibility	Others can verify findings
Legal proof	Documentation for legal/compliance
Remediation verification	Prove issues existed before fix
Audit trail	Complete record of what was tested

Evidence Directory Structure

The skill creates .sb-pentest-evidence/ with this structure:

Evidence File Format

Each evidence file follows this structure:

{
  "evidence_id": "API-001",
  "timestamp": "2025-01-31T10:30:00Z",
  "category": "api-audit",
  "type": "data-sample",

    },
    "curl_command": "curl -X GET 'https://abc123.supabase.co/rest/v1/users?select=*&limit=5' -H 'apikey: eyJ...' -H 'Authorization: Bearer eyJ...'"
  },

  "response": {
    "status": 200,

Curl Commands File

#!/bin/bash
# Supabase Security Audit - Reproducible Commands
# Target: https://myapp.example.com

      "auth-audit": 7,
      "realtime-audit": 4,
      "functions-audit": 3
    },
    "critical_evidence": [
      "02-extraction/service-key-exposure/",
      "03-api-audit/data-samples/users-sample.json",

    ]
  }
}

Evidence Collection Rules

What to Collect

Category	Evidence Type	Example
Always	Raw API responses	JSON responses
Always	Curl commands	Reproducible commands
Always	Timestamps	When each test occurred
P0/P1	Data samples (redacted)	Sample rows with PII masked
P0	Full request/response	Complete HTTP exchange
Optional	Screenshots	Browser evidence

Redaction Rules

Sensitive data MUST be redacted in evidence files:

{
  "original": "[e-mail]",
  "redacted": "[REDACTED]@example.com"
}

{
  "original": "John Doe",
  "redacted": "[REDACTED]"
}

{
  "original": "sk_live_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
  "redacted": "sk_live_[REDACTED]"
}

NEVER store in evidence:

• Actual passwords
• Full credit card numbers
• Full API keys (show first/last 4 chars only)
• Full personal data (partial redaction required)

Naming Conventions

[category]-[test-name]-[timestamp].json

Examples:

• users-anon-access-20250131-103000.json
• admin-function-no-auth-20250131-143000.json

MANDATORY: Evidence File Updates

⚠️ Evidence MUST be saved PROGRESSIVELY during execution.

Critical Rule: Save As You Go

DO NOT batch all evidence at the end. Instead:

1. Before each test → Create evidence file placeholder
2. After each request → Save request details immediately
3. After each response → Save response immediately
4. After analysis → Add analysis to evidence file

Directory Initialization

At audit start, create:

mkdir -p .sb-pentest-evidence/{01-detection,02-extraction,03-api-audit/tables,03-api-audit/data-samples,03-api-audit/rls-tests,03-api-audit/rpc-tests,04-storage-audit/buckets,04-storage-audit/public-url-tests,05-auth-audit/signup-tests,05-auth-audit/enumeration-tests,06-realtime-audit/postgres-changes,06-realtime-audit/broadcast-channels,07-functions-audit/function-tests,screenshots}

Log to Audit Log

[TIMESTAMP] [supabase-evidence] [START] Initializing evidence directory
[TIMESTAMP] [supabase-evidence] [CREATED] .sb-pentest-evidence/
[TIMESTAMP] [supabase-evidence] [CONTEXT_UPDATED] Evidence tracking initialized

Integration with Other Skills

This skill is automatically invoked by supabase-pentest. Each audit skill should:

1. Save evidence to the appropriate subdirectory
2. Use consistent naming conventions
3. Add entries to curl-commands.sh
4. Update timeline.md for significant findings
