ghostsecurity/skillsSkill
This skill should be used when the user asks to "validate a finding", "check if a vulnerability is real", "triage a security finding", "confirm a vulnerability", "determine if a finding is a true positive or false positive", or provides a security finding for review. It validates security vulnerability findings by tracing data flows, verifying exploit conditions, analyzing security controls, and optionally testing attack vectors against a live application.
Why this score
This repo hosts 8 skills, so its 413 stars are split between them (about 52 each) for scoring.
Popularity score: 60/100 from public GitHub signals only. It shows how widely used and maintained this is, not how well it works. Not included yet: the fake-star check. The security scan is shown separately and doesn't change the score. How we rank
Security
Scanned Oct 20, 2026 at commit 25fdf0687607, with Cisco's open-source skill-scanner.
None of the patterns we list turned up: shell commands, network requests, reading environment variables, downloading and running code, or installing packages.
A scan lists patterns in the code. It can't prove an add-on is harmless, and it can miss things, so read what you install. How we scan
