bb-workflow
SkillDev toolsAutonomous bug-bounty campaign driver. Runs a full programme end to end with no operator approvals - the deterministic driver (scripts/campaign.py) owns pass state, generates the killchain board from recon, and prints the exact next action (including which Skill and tool to run) every turn. Use when starting or resuming a bug-bounty engagement, "run the bb workflow", "hunt this program", "9-pass campaign", or when handed a *.scope wildcard to test for TIER1 findings. Single agent, refuter-verified, wiki-first, tool-first.
Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.
No other account needed.
Connect ahel once, and every AI you use reads what you have installed.
Then ask your AI: use the bb-workflow skill
What this skill tells your AI
The instructions your AI receives, as published by encod3d-sec/torch in skills/workflow/bb-workflow/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.
The driver is the plan. You run one command, do exactly what it prints, record the result, repeat.
Nothing here is advisory: the gates are enforced by scripts/campaign.py, so follow its output
literally rather than improvising. This exists because prose routing failed - 22 Skill calls against
341 hand-rolled curls in the reference campaign; the board fixes that by making the mandate tool
output, fresh every turn.
The loop
python3 scripts/campaign.py next # prints ONE required-action block
# do EXACTLY what it lists, in order
python3 scripts/campaign.py note <row> --arsenal <slug> # after Skill(wiki-arsenal)
python3 scripts/campaign.py done <row> --poc <img> --kind req # | --dead R | --park Q | --find F
# repeat
Start / resume
python3 scripts/campaign.py init --type bb- validatesscope.md+ the autonomy envelope, repairsengagement_type/schema, prints the Deadends size. If it exits 2, fix what it names (an emptyscope.mdis the one thing it cannot invent - fill it from the programme brief first).- Passes 0-3 (OSINT/Wayback, crawl, fingerprint, CVE) feed
state.md. Read every JS bundle and handler end to end (Skill-less; volume-reduce first: source-map, drop vendor, beautify, read). Grep never substitutes for the read. python3 scripts/campaign.py board- writes the killchain 4a rows. Refuses on an empty state.- Enter the loop.
nextserves one row, depth-first, one open row at a time.
Browser observation (chrome-devtools MCP)
The programme's targets are internet-reachable, so drive them through a real browser, not just
curl - a modern site's real attack surface is only visible rendered. Use the chrome-devtools MCP:
- Pass 1 crawl:
navigate_pageto each app, thenlist_network_requests- the XHR/fetch calls a page makes reveal the API endpoints/routes a static crawl never sees (this is exactly the lead a curl-only recon misses).take_snapshotfor the rendered DOM;evaluate_scriptto read client config /__NEXT_DATA__/ JS globals. - Confirmation + evidence: DOM-XSS fires in the real DOM (
evaluate_script/ console); a renderedtake_screenshotof the exploited state is a validwebPoC (G3).
Caveat: chrome-devtools drives a local browser, so it only reaches internet targets. For a
VPN-boxed host it cannot connect - use the VM-side browser (scripts/browser.sh / capture.sh web)
as the equivalent. pt-workflow / ctf-workflow default to the VM browser for that reason.
Manual login / MFA the agent cannot do headlessly (Smart-ID, Mobile-ID, a CAPTCHA) -> Skill(chrome-devtools-browser): a VISIBLE chromium on the VM desktop (scripts/browser-visible.sh) the operator logs into, driven + observed live via the chrome-devtools MCP - capture the authenticated session and the real /… API calls, then feed the hunt skills.
Gates (the driver enforces; do not fight them)
- G1 no exploit action until the row's arsenal card exists (
Skill(wiki-arsenal)fills it). - G2 a row cannot close unless its mapped
Skill(hunt-*)actually fired. - G3 a row cannot close without typed evidence:
req(default),burp, orweb(visual classes only). A page render is not evidence of a bug. - G8 run the mapped tool before hand-rolling; the driver warns if you skipped it.
Autonomy
No approvals. Out-of-envelope work parks to decisions.md and the loop moves on - it never blocks
and never asks a question. A confirmed TIER1 is written up and chained but does not stop the run; the
campaign ends when the board is exhausted (two dry reframe rounds) or the request budget is spent.
Model routing
Explicit per-role model assignment (the driver enforces the verifier gate; the rest is operating policy):
- Main brain - Opus 5 1M: the
campaign.pyloop, board/state, strategy, Burp/chrome-devtools, finding write-ups. This session. - Verifier - Opus (fresh context), MANDATORY: before any CONFIRMED,
campaign.py verify <F>prints an Opus refuter prompt; dispatch ONE fresh Opus agent that reads the raw PoC, tries to REFUTE, and writesverdicts/<F>.json.done --findrefuses unless that verdict exists, isrefuted:false, and cites the finding's PoC (anti-rubber-stamp). Fails CLOSED. - RTL - Opus (fresh context):
Skill(redteamlead)for direction at a fork or when a vector stalls. - Short tasks - Haiku:
Skill(wiki-arsenal)deep,Skill(delegate)(mechanical exploit-run),Skill(ingest)recon-parse. Bounded, fully-specified, single-shot ONLY.
The line that keeps quota safety: Haiku is allowed for a bounded single job, never for open-ended parallel hunting.
Discipline (carried, not restated - hunt-core owns the gates)
- Do NOT invoke
superpowers:brainstormingorsuperpowers:writing-plansmid-campaign, and keep no parallelTaskCreatelist. The board is the plan. - Model routing (see
## Model routing): Opus-1M drives the loop; bounded short tasks go to Haiku; the mandatory Opus verifier gates every finding (done --findrefuses without a passingverdicts/<F>.json). Still no open-ended hunter fan-out (it exhausted the weekly quota last time) - Haiku is only for single, fully-specified jobs. - Load-bearing exploit requests go through Burp Repeater when it is reachable; degrade to
capture.sh reqwhen it is not. Never block on Burp. - Scope and the enumeration ceiling come from
scope.md, never from this skill. - RCE-first: with >1 vector open, take the code-exec one first - it is the attack vector with impact; chase lower-impact classes only after code-exec is ruled out or the target needs them.
- Read whole, not grep: on a post-foothold host where a sudoer has no findable password and the
usual vectors dead-end, READ
/etc/pam.d/{sudo,su}+/etc/sudoers.d/*and linpeas output WHOLE - apam_ssh_agent_auth/pam_exec/NOPASSWDline is the tell a grep skips. See [[linux-privesc]]. - Long tools: run pspy/linpeas via
bash scripts/vm-bg.sh <eng> <win> '<tool>'(stages to/dev/shm, runs in the stabilized shell,--read/--wait 120the logfile); never retry a broken tool pattern >2x - switch method or callSkill(redteamlead).
Close-out
When next prints the close-out chain, run it: Skill(triage) -> Skill(evidence) ->
Skill(report) -> Skill(learn).
If the driver is unavailable
Manual fallback, same gates by hand: read Approach.md, take the top open row for the current
asset, run its wiki lookup then its hunt skill, capture req evidence, mark it [x]; on exhaustion
one Deadends.md line and [!].
