+## Strix Overview
 
 Strix are autonomous AI agents that act just like real hackers - they run your code dynamically, find vulnerabilities, and validate them through actual proof-of-concepts. Built for developers and security teams who need fast, accurate security testing without the overhead of manual pentesting or the false positives of static analysis tools.
 
 **Key Capabilities:**
 
-- 🔧 **Full hacker toolkit** out of the box
-- 🤝 **Teams of agents** that collaborate and scale
-- ✅ **Real validation** with PoCs, not false positives
-- 💻 **Developer‑first** CLI with actionable reports
-- 🔄 **Auto‑fix & reporting** to accelerate remediation

+The [XBOW benchmark](https://github.com/usestrix/benchmarks/tree/main/XBEN) is a set of 104 web security challenges designed to evaluate autonomous penetration testing agents. Each challenge follows a CTF format where the agent must discover and exploit vulnerabilities to extract a hidden flag.
+
+Strix `v0.4.0` achieved a **96% success rate** (100/104 challenges) in black-box mode.

+
+<ParamField path="STRIX_LLM_MAX_RETRIES" default="5" type="integer">
+  Maximum number of retries for LLM API calls on transient failures.
+</ParamField>
+
+<ParamField path="STRIX_REASONING_EFFORT" default="high" type="string">
+  Control thinking effort for reasoning models. Valid values: `none`, `minimal`, `low`, `medium`, `high`, `xhigh`. Defaults to `medium` for quick scan mode.
+</ParamField>
+
+<ParamField path="STRIX_MEMORY_COMPRESSOR_TIMEOUT" default="30" type="integer">
+  Timeout in seconds for memory compression operations (context summarization).
+</ParamField>
+
+## Optional Features
+
+<ParamField path="PERPLEXITY_API_KEY" type="string">
+  API key for Perplexity AI. Enables real-time web search during scans for OSINT and vulnerability research.
+</ParamField>
+
+<ParamField path="STRIX_DISABLE_BROWSER" default="false" type="boolean">
+  Disable browser automation tools.
+</ParamField>
+
+<ParamField path="STRIX_TELEMETRY" default="1" type="string">
+  Global telemetry default toggle. Set to `0`, `false`, `no`, or `off` to disable both PostHog and OTEL unless overridden by per-channel flags below.
+</ParamField>
+
+<ParamField path="STRIX_OTEL_TELEMETRY" type="string">
+  Enable/disable OpenTelemetry run observability independently. When unset, falls back to `STRIX_TELEMETRY`.
+</ParamField>
+
+<ParamField path="STRIX_POSTHOG_TELEMETRY" type="string">
+  Enable/disable PostHog product telemetry independently. When unset, falls back to `STRIX_TELEMETRY`.
+</ParamField>
+
+<ParamField path="TRACELOOP_BASE_URL" type="string">
+  OTLP/Traceloop base URL for remote OpenTelemetry export. If unset, Strix keeps traces local only.
+</ParamField>
+
+<ParamField path="TRACELOOP_API_KEY" type="string">
+  API key used for remote trace export. Remote export is enabled only when both `TRACELOOP_BASE_URL` and `TRACELOOP_API_KEY` are set.
+</ParamField>
+
+<ParamField path="TRACELOOP_HEADERS" type="string">
+  Optional custom OTEL headers (JSON object or `key=value,key2=value2`). Useful for Langfuse or custom/self-hosted OTLP gateways.
+</ParamField>
+
+When remote OTEL vars are not set, Strix still writes complete run telemetry locally to:
+
+```bash
+strix_runs/<run_name>/events.jsonl
+```
+
+When remote vars are set, Strix dual-writes telemetry to both local JSONL and the remote OTEL endpoint.
+
+## Docker Configuration

+title: "Skills"
+description: "Specialized knowledge packages that enhance agent capabilities"
+---
+
+Skills are structured knowledge packages that give Strix agents deep expertise in specific vulnerability types, technologies, and testing methodologies.
+
+## The Idea
+
+LLMs have broad but shallow security knowledge. They know _about_ SQL injection, but lack the nuanced techniques that experienced pentesters use—parser quirks, bypass methods, validation tricks, and chain attacks.
+
+Skills inject this deep, specialized knowledge directly into the agent's context, transforming it from a generalist into a specialist for the task at hand.
+
+## How They Work
+
+When Strix spawns an agent for a specific task, it selects up to 5 relevant skills based on the context:
+
+```python
+# Agent created for JWT testing automatically loads relevant skills
+create_agent(
+    task="Test authentication mechanisms",
+    skills=["authentication_jwt", "business_logic"]
+)
+```
+
+The skills are injected into the agent's system prompt, giving it access to:
+
+- **Advanced techniques** — Non-obvious methods beyond standard testing
+- **Working payloads** — Practical examples with variations
+- **Validation methods** — How to confirm findings and avoid false positives
+
+## Skill Categories
+
+### Vulnerabilities
+
+Core vulnerability classes with deep exploitation techniques.

+| `idor`                                | Object reference attacks, horizontal/vertical access   |
+| `sql_injection`                       | SQL injection variants, WAF bypasses, blind techniques |
+| `xss`                                 | XSS types, filter bypasses, DOM exploitation           |
+| `ssrf`                                | Server-side request forgery, protocol handlers         |
+| `csrf`                                | Cross-site request forgery, token bypasses             |
+| `xxe`                                 | XML external entities, OOB exfiltration                |

+description: "Open-source AI hackers to secure your apps"
+---
+
+Strix are autonomous AI agents that act like real hackers—they run your code dynamically, find vulnerabilities, and validate them with proof-of-concepts. Built for developers and security teams who need fast, accurate security testing without the overhead of manual pentesting or the false positives of static analysis tools.

+- **Real validation** — PoCs, not false positives
+- **Multi-agent orchestration** — Specialized agents collaborate on complex targets
+- **Developer-first CLI** — Interactive TUI or headless mode for automation
+
+## Security Tools
+
+Strix agents come equipped with a comprehensive toolkit:
+
+| Tool | Purpose |
+|------|---------|
+| HTTP Proxy | Full request/response manipulation and analysis |
+| Browser Automation | Multi-tab browser for XSS, CSRF, auth flow testing |
+| Terminal | Interactive shells for command execution |
+| Python Runtime | Custom exploit development and validation |
+| Reconnaissance | Automated OSINT and attack surface mapping |
+| Code Analysis | Static and dynamic analysis capabilities |
+
+## Vulnerability Coverage
+
+| Category | Examples |
+|----------|----------|
+| Access Control | IDOR, privilege escalation, auth bypass |
+| Injection | SQL, NoSQL, command injection |
+| Server-Side | SSRF, XXE, deserialization |
+| Client-Side | XSS, prototype pollution, DOM vulnerabilities |
+| Business Logic | Race conditions, workflow manipulation |
+| Authentication | JWT vulnerabilities, session management |
+| Infrastructure | Misconfigurations, exposed services |
+
+## Multi-Agent Architecture
+
+Strix uses a graph of specialized agents for comprehensive security testing:
+
+- **Distributed Workflows** — Specialized agents for different attacks and assets
+- **Scalable Testing** — Parallel execution for fast comprehensive coverage
+- **Dynamic Coordination** — Agents collaborate and share discoveries
+
+## Quick Example
+
+```bash
+# Install
+curl -sSL https://strix.ai/install | bash
+
+# Configure
+export STRIX_LLM="openai/gpt-5.4"
+export LLM_API_KEY="your-api-key"
+
+# Scan
+strix --target ./your-app

+
+## Headless Mode
+
+Use the `-n` or `--non-interactive` flag:
+
+```bash
+strix -n --target ./app --scan-mode quick
+```
+
+For pull-request style CI runs, Strix automatically scopes quick scans to changed files. You can force this behavior and set a base ref explicitly:
+
+```bash
+strix -n --target ./app --scan-mode quick --scope-mode diff --diff-base origin/main
+```

+
+on:
+  pull_request:
+
+jobs:
+  strix-scan:
+    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

+          LLM_API_KEY: ${{ secrets.LLM_API_KEY }}
+        run: strix -n -t ./ --scan-mode quick
+```
+
+## Required Secrets
+
+Add these secrets to your repository:
+
+| Secret | Description |
+|--------|-------------|
+| `STRIX_LLM` | Model name (e.g., `openai/gpt-5.4`) |
+| `LLM_API_KEY` | API key for your LLM provider |
+
+## Exit Codes
+
+The workflow fails when vulnerabilities are found:
+
+| Code | Result |
+|------|--------|
+| 0 | Pass — No vulnerabilities |
+| 2 | Fail — Vulnerabilities found |
+
+## Scan Modes for CI
+
+| Mode | Duration | Use Case |
+|------|----------|----------|
+| `quick` | Minutes | Every PR |
+| `standard` | ~30 min | Nightly builds |
+| `deep` | 1-4 hours | Release candidates |
+
+<Tip>
+Use `quick` mode for PRs to keep feedback fast. Schedule `deep` scans nightly.
+</Tip>
+
+<Note>
+For pull_request workflows, Strix automatically uses changed-files diff-scope in CI/headless runs. If diff resolution fails, ensure full history is fetched (`fetch-depth: 0`) or set `--diff-base`.

+title: "Local Models"
+description: "Run Strix with self-hosted LLMs for privacy and air-gapped testing"
+---
+
+Running Strix with local models allows for completely offline, privacy-first security assessments. Data never leaves your machine, making this ideal for sensitive internal networks or air-gapped environments.
+
+## Privacy vs Performance
+
+| Feature | Local Models | Cloud Models (GPT-5/Claude 4.5) |
+|---------|--------------|--------------------------------|
+| **Privacy** | 🔒 Data stays local | Data sent to provider |
+| **Cost** | Free (hardware only) | Pay-per-token |
+| **Reasoning** | Lower (struggles with agents) | State-of-the-art |
+| **Setup** | Complex (GPU required) | Instant |
+
+<Warning>
+**Compatibility Note**: Strix relies on advanced agentic capabilities (tool use, multi-step planning, self-correction). Most local models, especially those under 70B parameters, struggle with these complex tasks.
+
+For critical assessments, we strongly recommend using state-of-the-art cloud models like **Claude 4.5 Sonnet** or **GPT-5**. Use local models only when privacy is the absolute priority.
+</Warning>
+
+## Ollama
+
+[Ollama](https://ollama.ai) is the easiest way to run local models on macOS, Linux, and Windows.
+
+### Setup
+
+1. Install Ollama from [ollama.ai](https://ollama.ai)
+2. Pull a high-performance model:
+   ```bash
+   ollama pull qwen3-vl
+   ```
+3. Configure Strix:
+   ```bash
+   export STRIX_LLM="ollama/qwen3-vl"
+   export LLM_API_BASE="http://localhost:11434"
+   ```
+
+### Recommended Models
+
+We recommend these models for the best balance of reasoning and tool use:
+
+**Recommended models:**
+- **Qwen3 VL** (`ollama pull qwen3-vl`)
+- **DeepSeek V3.1** (`ollama pull deepseek-v3.1`)
+- **Devstral 2** (`ollama pull devstral-2`)
+
+## LM Studio / OpenAI Compatible
+
+If you use LM Studio, vLLM, or other runners:
+
+```bash
+export STRIX_LLM="openai/local-model"
+export LLM_API_BASE="http://localhost:1234/v1"  # Adjust port as needed

+title: "Browser"
+description: "Playwright-powered Chrome for web application testing"
+---
+
+Strix uses a headless Chrome browser via Playwright to interact with web applications exactly like a real user would.
+
+## How It Works
+
+All browser traffic is automatically routed through the Caido proxy, giving Strix full visibility into every request and response. This enables:
+
+- Testing client-side vulnerabilities (XSS, DOM manipulation)
+- Navigating authenticated flows (login, OAuth, MFA)
+- Triggering JavaScript-heavy functionality
+- Capturing dynamically generated requests
+
+## Capabilities
+
+| Action     | Description                                 |
+| ---------- | ------------------------------------------- |
+| Navigate   | Go to URLs, follow links, handle redirects  |
+| Click      | Interact with buttons, links, form elements |
+| Type       | Fill in forms, search boxes, input fields   |
+| Execute JS | Run custom JavaScript in the page context   |
+| Screenshot | Capture visual state for reports            |
+| Multi-tab  | Test across multiple browser tabs           |
+
+## Example Flow
+
+1. Agent launches browser and navigates to login page
+2. Fills in credentials and submits form
+3. Proxy captures the authentication request
+4. Agent navigates to protected areas
+5. Tests for IDOR by replaying requests with modified IDs

+title: "HTTP Proxy"
+description: "Caido-powered proxy for request interception and replay"
+---
+
+Strix includes [Caido](https://caido.io), a modern HTTP proxy built for security testing. All browser traffic flows through Caido, giving the agent full control over requests and responses.
+
+## Capabilities
+
+| Feature          | Description                                  |
+| ---------------- | -------------------------------------------- |
+| Request Capture  | Log all HTTP/HTTPS traffic automatically     |
+| Request Replay   | Repeat any request with modifications        |
+| HTTPQL           | Query captured traffic with powerful filters |
+| Scope Management | Focus on specific domains or paths           |
+| Sitemap          | Visualize the discovered attack surface      |
+
+## HTTPQL Filtering
+
+Query captured requests using Caido's HTTPQL syntax
+
+## Request Replay
+
+The agent can take any captured request and replay it with modifications:
+
+- Change path parameters (test for IDOR)
+- Modify request body (test for injection)
+- Add/remove headers (test for auth bypass)
+- Alter cookies (test for session issues)
+
+## Python Integration
+
+All proxy functions are automatically available in Python sessions. This enables powerful scripted security testing:
+
+```python
+# List recent POST requests
+post_requests = list_requests(
+    httpql_filter='req.method.eq:"POST"',
+    page_size=20
+)
+
+# View a specific request
+request_details = view_request("req_123", part="request")
+
+# Replay with modified payload
+response = repeat_request("req_123", {
+    "body": '{"user_id": "admin"}'
+})
+print(f"Status: {response['status_code']}")
+```
+
+### Available Functions
+
+| Function               | Description                                |
+| ---------------------- | ------------------------------------------ |
+| `list_requests()`      | Query captured traffic with HTTPQL filters |
+| `view_request()`       | Get full request/response details          |
+| `repeat_request()`     | Replay a request with modifications        |
+| `send_request()`       | Send a new HTTP request                    |
+| `scope_rules()`        | Manage proxy scope (allowlist/denylist)    |
+| `list_sitemap()`       | View discovered endpoints                  |
+| `view_sitemap_entry()` | Get details for a sitemap entry            |
+
+### Example: Automated IDOR Testing
+
+```python
+# Get all requests to user endpoints
+user_requests = list_requests(
+    httpql_filter='req.path.cont:"/users/"'
+)
+
+for req in user_requests.get('requests', []):
+    # Try accessing with different user IDs
+    for test_id in ['1', '2', 'admin', '../admin']:
+        response = repeat_request(req['id'], {
+            'url': req['path'].replace('/users/1', f'/users/{test_id}')
+        })
+
+        if response['status_code'] == 200:
+            print(f"Potential IDOR: {test_id} returned 200")
+```
+
+## Human-in-the-Loop
+
+Strix exposes the Caido proxy to your host machine, so you can interact with it alongside the automated scan. When the sandbox starts, the Caido URL is displayed in the TUI sidebar — click it to copy, then open it in Caido Desktop.
+
+### Accessing Caido
+
+1. Start a scan as usual
+2. Look for the **Caido** URL in the sidebar stats panel (e.g. `localhost:52341`)
+3. Open the URL in Caido Desktop
+4. Click **Continue as guest** to access the instance
+
+### What You Can Do
+
+- **Inspect traffic** — Browse all HTTP/HTTPS requests the agent is making in real time
+- **Replay requests** — Take any captured request and resend it with your own modifications
+- **Intercept and modify** — Pause requests mid-flight, edit them, then forward
+- **Explore the sitemap** — See the full attack surface the agent has discovered
+- **Manual testing** — Use Caido's tools to test findings the agent reports, or explore areas it hasn't reached
+
+This turns Strix from a fully automated scanner into a collaborative tool — the agent handles the heavy lifting while you focus on the interesting parts.
+
+## Scope
+
+Create scopes to filter traffic to relevant domains:
+
+```
+Allowlist: ["api.example.com", "*.example.com"]
+Denylist: ["*.gif", "*.jpg", "*.png", "*.css", "*.js"]
+```

+---
+
+Strix has access to a persistent bash terminal running inside the Docker sandbox. This gives the agent access to all [pre-installed security tools](/tools/sandbox).
+
+## Capabilities
+
+| Feature           | Description                                                |
+| ----------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- |
+| Persistent state  | Working directory and environment persist between commands |
+| Multiple sessions | Run parallel terminals for concurrent operations           |
+| Background jobs   | Start long-running processes without blocking              |
+| Interactive       | Respond to prompts and control running processes           |
+
+## Common Uses
+
+### Running Security Tools
+
+```bash
+# Subdomain enumeration
+subfinder -d example.com

+title: "CLI Reference"
+description: "Command-line options for Strix"
+---
+
+## Basic Usage
+
+```bash
+strix --target <target> [options]
+```
+
+## Options
+
+<ParamField path="--target, -t" type="string" required>
+  Target to test. Accepts URLs, repositories, local directories, domains, or IP addresses. Can be specified multiple times.
+</ParamField>
+
+<ParamField path="--instruction" type="string">
+  Custom instructions for the scan. Use for credentials, focus areas, or specific testing approaches.
+</ParamField>
+
+<ParamField path="--instruction-file" type="string">
+  Path to a file containing detailed instructions.
+</ParamField>
+
+<ParamField path="--scan-mode, -m" type="string" default="deep">
+  Scan depth: `quick`, `standard`, or `deep`.
+</ParamField>
+
+<ParamField path="--scope-mode" type="string" default="auto">
+  Code scope mode: `auto` (enable PR diff-scope in CI/headless runs), `diff` (force changed-files scope), or `full` (disable diff-scope).
+</ParamField>
+
+<ParamField path="--diff-base" type="string">
+  Target branch or commit to compare against (e.g., `origin/main`). Defaults to the repository's default branch.
+</ParamField>
+
+<ParamField path="--non-interactive, -n" type="boolean">
+  Run in headless mode without TUI. Ideal for CI/CD.
+</ParamField>
+
+<ParamField path="--config" type="string">
+  Path to a custom config file (JSON) to use instead of `~/.strix/cli-config.json`.
+</ParamField>
+
+## Examples
+
+```bash
+# Basic scan
+strix --target https://example.com
+
+# Authenticated testing
+strix --target https://app.com --instruction "Use credentials: user:pass"
+
+# Focused testing
+strix --target api.example.com --instruction "Focus on IDOR and auth bypass"
+
+# CI/CD mode
+strix -n --target ./ --scan-mode quick
+
+# Force diff-scope against a specific base ref
+strix -n --target ./ --scan-mode quick --scope-mode diff --diff-base origin/main
+
+# Multi-target white-box testing
+strix -t https://github.com/org/app -t https://staging.example.com
+```
+
+## Exit Codes
+
+| Code | Meaning |
+|------|---------|
+| 0 | Scan completed, no vulnerabilities found |
+| 2 | Vulnerabilities found (headless mode only) |

+Use instructions to provide context, credentials, or focus areas for your scan.
+
+## Inline Instructions
+
+```bash
+strix --target https://app.com --instruction "Focus on authentication vulnerabilities"
+```
+
+## File-Based Instructions
+
+For complex instructions, use a file:
+
+```bash
+strix --target https://app.com --instruction-file ./pentest-instructions.md
+```
+
+## Common Use Cases
+
+### Authenticated Testing
+
+```bash
+strix --target https://app.com \
+  --instruction "Login with email: test@example.com, password: TestPass123"
+```
+
+### Focused Scope
+
+```bash
+strix --target https://api.example.com \
+  --instruction "Focus on IDOR vulnerabilities in the /api/users endpoints"
+```
+
+### Exclusions
+
+```bash
+strix --target https://app.com \
+  --instruction "Do not test /admin or /internal endpoints"
+```
+
+### API Testing
+
+```bash
+strix --target https://api.example.com \
+  --instruction "Use API key header: X-API-Key: abc123. Focus on rate limiting bypass."
+```
+
+## Instruction File Example
+
+```markdown instructions.md
+# Penetration Test Instructions
+
+## Credentials
+- Admin: admin@example.com / AdminPass123
+- User: user@example.com / UserPass123
+
+## Focus Areas
+1. IDOR in user profile endpoints
+2. Privilege escalation between roles
+3. JWT token manipulation
+
+## Out of Scope
+- /health endpoints
+- Third-party integrations
+```
+
+<Tip>
+Be specific. Good instructions help Strix prioritize the most valuable attack paths.

+---
+title: "Scan Modes"
+description: "Choose the right scan depth for your use case"
+---
+
+Strix offers three scan modes to balance speed and thoroughness.
+
+## Quick
+
+```bash
+strix --target ./app --scan-mode quick
+```
+
+Fast checks for obvious vulnerabilities. Best for:
+- CI/CD pipelines
+- Pull request validation
+- Rapid smoke tests
+
+**Duration**: Minutes
+
+## Standard
+
+```bash
+strix --target ./app --scan-mode standard
+```
+
+Balanced testing for routine security reviews. Best for:
+- Regular security assessments
+- Pre-release validation
+- Development milestones
+
+**Duration**: 30 minutes to 1 hour
+
+**White-box behavior**: Uses source-aware mapping and static triage to prioritize dynamic exploit validation paths.
+
+## Deep
+
+```bash
+strix --target ./app --scan-mode deep
+```
+
+Thorough penetration testing. Best for:
+- Comprehensive security audits
+- Pre-production reviews
+- Critical application assessments
+
+**Duration**: 1-4 hours depending on target complexity
+
+**White-box behavior**: Runs broad source-aware triage (`semgrep`, AST structural search, secrets, supply-chain checks) and then systematically validates top candidates dynamically.
+
+<Note>
+Deep mode is the default. It explores edge cases, chained vulnerabilities, and complex attack paths.
+</Note>
+
+## Choosing a Mode
+
+| Scenario | Recommended Mode |
+|----------|------------------|
+| Every PR | Quick |
+| Weekly scans | Standard |
+| Before major release | Deep |
+| Bug bounty hunting | Deep |

+DEDUPE_SYSTEM_PROMPT = """You are an expert vulnerability report deduplication judge.
+Your task is to determine if a candidate vulnerability report describes the SAME vulnerability
+as any existing report.
+
+CRITICAL DEDUPLICATION RULES:
+
+1. SAME VULNERABILITY means:
+   - Same root cause (e.g., "missing input validation" not just "SQL injection")
+   - Same affected component/endpoint/file (exact match or clear overlap)
+   - Same exploitation method or attack vector
+   - Would be fixed by the same code change/patch
+
+2. NOT DUPLICATES if:
+   - Different endpoints even with same vulnerability type (e.g., SQLi in /login vs /search)
+   - Different parameters in same endpoint (e.g., XSS in 'name' vs 'comment' field)
+   - Different root causes (e.g., stored XSS vs reflected XSS in same field)
+   - Different severity levels due to different impact
+   - One is authenticated, other is unauthenticated
+
+3. ARE DUPLICATES even if:
+   - Titles are worded differently
+   - Descriptions have different level of detail
+   - PoC uses different payloads but exploits same issue
+   - One report is more thorough than another
+   - Minor variations in technical analysis
+
+COMPARISON GUIDELINES:
+- Focus on the technical root cause, not surface-level similarities
+- Same vulnerability type (SQLi, XSS) doesn't mean duplicate - location matters
+- Consider the fix: would fixing one also fix the other?
+- When uncertain, lean towards NOT duplicate
+
+FIELDS TO ANALYZE:
+- title, description: General vulnerability info
+- target, endpoint, method: Exact location of vulnerability
+- technical_analysis: Root cause details
+- poc_description: How it's exploited
+- impact: What damage it can cause
+
+YOU MUST RESPOND WITH EXACTLY THIS XML FORMAT AND NOTHING ELSE:
+
+<dedupe_result>
+<is_duplicate>true</is_duplicate>
+<duplicate_id>vuln-0001</duplicate_id>
+<confidence>0.95</confidence>
+<reason>Both reports describe SQL injection in /api/login via the username parameter</reason>
+</dedupe_result>
+
+OR if not a duplicate:
+
+<dedupe_result>
+<is_duplicate>false</is_duplicate>
+<duplicate_id></duplicate_id>
+<confidence>0.90</confidence>
+<reason>Different endpoints: candidate is /api/search, existing is /api/login</reason>
+</dedupe_result>
+
+RULES:
+- is_duplicate MUST be exactly "true" or "false" (lowercase)
+- duplicate_id MUST be the exact ID from existing reports or empty if not duplicate
+- confidence MUST be a decimal (your confidence level in the decision)
+- reason MUST be a specific explanation mentioning endpoint/parameter/root cause
+- DO NOT include any text outside the <dedupe_result> tags"""

-# 📚 Strix Prompt Modules
-
-## 🎯 Overview
-
-Prompt modules are specialized knowledge packages that enhance Strix agents with deep expertise in specific vulnerability types, technologies, and testing methodologies. Each module provides advanced techniques, practical examples, and validation methods that go beyond baseline security knowledge.
-
----
-
-## 🏗️ Architecture
-
-### How Prompts Work
-
-When an agent is created, it can load up to 5 specialized prompt modules relevant to the specific subtask and context at hand:
-
-```python
-# Agent creation with specialized modules
-create_agent(
-    task="Test authentication mechanisms in API",
-    name="Auth Specialist",
-    prompt_modules="authentication_jwt,business_logic"
-)
-```
-
-The modules are dynamically injected into the agent's system prompt, allowing it to operate with deep expertise tailored to the specific vulnerability types or technologies required for the task at hand.
-
----
-
-## 📁 Module Categories
-
-| Category | Purpose |
-|----------|---------|
-| **`/vulnerabilities`** | Advanced testing techniques for core vulnerability classes like authentication bypasses, business logic flaws, and race conditions |
-| **`/frameworks`** | Specific testing methods for popular frameworks e.g. Django, Express, FastAPI, and Next.js |
-| **`/technologies`** | Specialized techniques for third-party services such as Supabase, Firebase, Auth0, and payment gateways |
-| **`/protocols`** | Protocol-specific testing patterns for GraphQL, WebSocket, OAuth, and other communication standards |
-| **`/cloud`** | Cloud provider security testing for AWS, Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes environments |
-| **`/reconnaissance`** | Advanced information gathering and enumeration techniques for comprehensive attack surface mapping |
-| **`/custom`** | Community-contributed modules for specialized or industry-specific testing scenarios |
-
----
-
-## 🎨 Creating New Modules
-
-### What Should a Module Contain?
-
-A good prompt module is a structured knowledge package that typically includes:
-
-- **Advanced techniques** - Non-obvious methods specific to the task and domain
-- **Practical examples** - Working payloads, commands, or test cases with variations
-- **Validation methods** - How to confirm findings and avoid false positives
-- **Context-specific insights** - Environment and version nuances, configuration-dependent behavior, and edge cases
-
-Modules use XML-style tags for structure and focus on deep, specialized knowledge that significantly enhances agent capabilities for that specific context.
-
----
-
-## 🤝 Contributing
-
-Community contributions are more than welcome — contribute new modules via [pull requests](https://github.com/usestrix/strix/pulls) or [GitHub issues](https://github.com/usestrix/strix/issues) to help expand the collection and improve extensibility for Strix agents.
-
----
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> **Work in Progress** - We're actively expanding the prompt module collection with specialized techniques and new categories.

-<coordination_role>
-You are a COORDINATION AGENT ONLY. You do NOT perform any security testing, vulnerability assessment, or technical work yourself.
-
-Your ONLY responsibilities:
-1. Create specialized agents for specific security tasks
-2. Monitor agent progress and coordinate between them
-3. Compile final scan reports from agent findings
-4. Manage agent communication and dependencies
-
-CRITICAL RESTRICTIONS:
-- NEVER perform vulnerability testing or security assessments
-- NEVER write detailed vulnerability reports (only compile final summaries)
-- ONLY use agent_graph and finish tools for coordination
-- You can create agents throughout the scan process, depending on the task and findings, not just at the beginning!
-</coordination_role>
-
-<agent_management>
-BEFORE CREATING AGENTS:
-1. Analyze the target scope and break into independent tasks
-2. Check existing agents to avoid duplication
-3. Create agents with clear, specific objectives to avoid duplication
-
-AGENT TYPES YOU CAN CREATE:
-- Reconnaissance: subdomain enum, port scanning, tech identification, etc.
-- Vulnerability Testing: SQL injection, XSS, auth bypass, IDOR, RCE, SSRF, etc. Can be black-box or white-box.
-    - Direct vulnerability testing agents to implement hierarchical workflow (per finding: discover, verify, report, fix): each one should create validation agents for findings verification, which spawn reporting agents for documentation, which create fix agents for remediation
-
-COORDINATION GUIDELINES:
-- Ensure clear task boundaries and success criteria
-- Terminate redundant agents when objectives overlap
-- Use message passing only when essential (requests/answers or critical handoffs); avoid routine status messages and prefer batched updates
-</agent_management>
-
-<final_responsibilities>
-When all agents complete:
-1. Collect findings from all agents
-2. Compile a final scan summary report
-3. Use finish tool to complete the assessment

Security breaks where identity, authorization, and validation drift across routers, middlewares, proxies, and channels. Treat every dependency, header, and object reference as untrusted until bound to the caller and tenant.</critical>
-
-<surface_map>
-- ASGI stack: Starlette middlewares (CORS, TrustedHost, ProxyHeaders, Session), exception handlers, lifespan events
-- Routers/sub-apps: APIRouter with prefixes/tags, mounted apps (StaticFiles, admin subapps), `include_router`, versioned paths
-- Security and DI: `Depends`, `Security`, `OAuth2PasswordBearer`, `HTTPBearer`, scopes, per-router vs per-route dependencies
-- Models and validation: Pydantic v1/v2 models, unions/Annotated, custom validators, extra fields policy, coercion
-- Docs and schema: `/openapi.json`, `/docs`, `/redoc`, alternative docs_url/redoc_url, schema extensions
-- Files and static: `UploadFile`, `File`, `FileResponse`, `StaticFiles` mounts, template engines (`Jinja2Templates`)
-- Channels: HTTP (sync/async), WebSocket, StreamingResponse/SSE, BackgroundTasks/Task queues
-- Deployment: Uvicorn/Gunicorn, reverse proxies/CDN, TLS termination, header trust
-</surface_map>
-
-<methodology>
-1. Enumerate routes from OpenAPI and via crawling; diff with 404-fuzzing for hidden endpoints (`include_in_schema=False`).
-2. Build a Principal × Channel × Content-Type matrix (unauth, user, staff/admin; HTTP vs WebSocket; JSON/form/multipart) and capture baselines.
-3. For each route, identify dependencies (router-level and route-level). Attempt to satisfy security dependencies minimally, then mutate context (tokens, scopes, tenant headers) and object IDs.
-4. Compare behavior across deployments: dev/stage/prod often differ in middlewares (CORS, TrustedHost, ProxyHeaders) and docs exposure.
-</methodology>

-<high_value_targets>
-- `/openapi.json`, `/docs`, `/redoc` in production (full attack surface map; securitySchemes and server URLs)
-- Auth flows: token endpoints, session/cookie bridges, OAuth device/PKCE, scope checks
-- Admin/staff routers, feature-flagged routes, `include_in_schema=False` endpoints
-- File upload/download, import/export/report endpoints, signed URL generators
-- WebSocket endpoints carrying notifications, admin channels, or commands
-- Background job creation/fetch (`/jobs/{id}`, `/tasks/{id}/result`)
-- Mounted subapps (admin UI, storage browsers, metrics/health endpoints)
-</high_value_targets>
-
-<advanced_techniques>
-<openapi_and_docs>
-- Try default and alternate locations: `/openapi.json`, `/docs`, `/redoc`, `/api/openapi.json`, `/internal/openapi.json`.
-- If OpenAPI is exposed, mine: paths, parameter names, securitySchemes, scopes, servers; find endpoints hidden in UI but present in schema.
-- Schema drift: endpoints with `include_in_schema=False` won’t appear—use wordlists based on tags/prefixes and common admin/debug names.
-</openapi_and_docs>
-
-<dependency_injection_and_security>
-- Router vs route dependencies: routes may miss security dependencies present elsewhere; check for unprotected variants of protected actions.
-- Minimal satisfaction: `OAuth2PasswordBearer` only yields a token string—verify if any route treats token presence as auth without verification.
-- Scope checks: ensure scopes are enforced by the dependency (e.g., `Security(...)`); routes using `Depends` instead may ignore requested scopes.
-- Header/param aliasing: DI sources headers/cookies/query by name; try case variations and duplicates to influence which value binds.
-</dependency_injection_and_security>
-
-<auth_and_jwt>
-- Token misuse: developers may decode JWTs without verifying signature/issuer/audience; attempt unsigned/attacker-signed tokens and cross-service audiences.
-- Algorithm/key confusion: try HS/RS cross-use if verification is not pinned; inject `kid` header targeting local files/paths where custom key lookup exists.
-- Session bridges: check cookies set via SessionMiddleware or custom cookies. Attempt session fixation and forging if weak `secret_key` or predictable signing is used.
-- Device/PKCE flows: verify strict PKCE S256 and state/nonce enforcement if OAuth/OIDC is integrated.
-</auth_and_jwt>
-
-<cors_and_csrf>
-- CORS reflection: broad `allow_origin_regex` or mis-specified origins can permit cross-site reads; test arbitrary Origins and credentialed requests.
-- CSRF: FastAPI/Starlette lack built-in CSRF. If cookies carry auth, attempt state-changing requests via cross-site forms/XHR; validate origin header checks and same-site settings.
-</cors_and_csrf>
-
-<proxy_and_host_trust>

-5. Document exact dependency paths (router-level, route-level) that missed enforcement.

-
-<pro_tips>
-1. Always fetch `/openapi.json` first; it’s the blueprint. If hidden, brute-force likely admin/report/export routes.
-2. Trace dependencies per route; map which ones enforce auth/scopes vs merely parse input.
-3. Treat tokens returned by `OAuth2PasswordBearer` as untrusted strings—verify actual signature and claims on the server.
-4. Test CORS with arbitrary Origins and with credentials; verify preflight and actual request deltas.
-5. Add Host and X-Forwarded-* fuzzing when behind proxies; watch for redirect/absolute URL differences.
-6. For uploads, vary filename encodings, dot segments, and NUL-like bytes; verify storage paths and served URLs.
-7. Use content-type toggling to hit alternate validators and code paths.
-8. For WebSockets, test cookie-based auth, origin restrictions, and per-message authorization.
-9. Mine client bundles/env for secret paths and preview/admin flags; many teams hide routes via UI only.
-10. Keep PoCs minimal and durable (IDs, headers, small payloads) and prefer reproducible diffs over noisy payloads.
-</pro_tips>

-<remember>Authorization and validation must be enforced in the dependency graph and at the resource boundary for every path and channel. If any route, middleware, or mount skips binding subject, action, and object/tenant, expect cross-user and cross-tenant breakage.</remember>

-
-<critical>Modern Next.js combines multiple execution contexts (Edge, Node, RSC, client) with smart caching (ISR/RSC fetch cache), middleware, and server actions. Authorization and cache boundaries must be enforced consistently across all paths or attackers will cross tenants, leak data, or invoke privileged actions.</critical>

-- Routers: App Router (`app/`) and Pages Router (`pages/`) coexist; test both
-- Runtimes: Node.js vs Edge (V8 isolates with restricted APIs)
-- Data paths: RSC (server components), Client components, Route Handlers (`app/api/**`), API routes (`pages/api/**`)
-- Middleware: `middleware.ts`/`_middleware.ts`
-- Rendering modes: SSR, SSG, ISR, on-demand revalidation, draft/preview mode
-- Images: `next/image` optimization and remote loader
-- Auth: NextAuth.js (callbacks, CSRF/state, callbackUrl), custom JWT/session bridges
-- Server Actions: streamed POST with `Next-Action` header and action IDs
-</surface_map>
-
-<methodology>
-1. Inventory routes (pages + app), static vs dynamic segments, and params. Map middleware coverage and runtime per path.
-2. Capture baseline for each role (unauth, user, admin) across SSR, API routes, Route Handlers, Server Actions, and streaming data.
-3. Diff responses while toggling runtime (Edge/Node), content-type, fetch cache directives, and preview/draft mode.
-4. Probe caching and revalidation boundaries (ISR, RSC fetch, CDN) for cross-user/tenant leaks.

-<isr_and_revalidation>
-- Identify ISR pages (stale-while-revalidate). Check if responses may include user-bound fragments or tenant-dependent content.
-- On-demand revalidation endpoints: look for weak secrets in URLs, referer-disclosed tokens, or unvalidated hosts triggering `revalidatePath`/`revalidateTag`.
-- Attempt header-smuggling or method variations to trigger revalidation flows.

-<next_image_ssrf>
-- Review `images.domains`/`remotePatterns` in `next.config.js`; test SSRF to internal hosts (IPv4/IPv6 variants, DNS rebinding) if patterns are broad.

-- Attempt cache poisoning: craft same URL with different normalization to affect other users.

-
-<nextauth_pitfalls>
-- State/nonce/PKCE: validate per-provider correctness; attempt missing/relaxed checks leading to login CSRF or token mix-up.
-- Callback URL restrictions: open redirect in `callbackUrl` or mis-scoped allowed hosts; hijack sessions by forcing callbacks.
-- JWT/session bridges: audience/issuer not enforced across API routes/Route Handlers; attempt cross-service token reuse.

-
-<edge_runtime_diffs>
-- Edge runtime lacks certain Node APIs; defenses relying on Node-only modules may be skipped. Compare behavior of the same route in Edge vs Node.

-<client_and_dom>
-- Identify `dangerouslySetInnerHTML`, Markdown renderers, and user-controlled href/src attributes. Validate CSP/Trusted Types coverage for SSR/CSR/hydration.

-4. Use streaming-aware tooling to capture server actions and RSC payloads; diff flight data.
-5. For NextAuth, fuzz provider params (state, nonce, scope, callbackUrl) and verify strictness.
-6. Always retest under Edge and Node; misconfigurations often exist in only one runtime.
-7. Probe `next/image` aggressively but safely—test IPv6/obscure encodings and redirect behavior.
-8. Validate negative paths: other-user IDs, other-tenant headers/subdomains, lower roles.
-9. Focus on export/report/download endpoints; they often bypass resolver-level checks.
-10. Document minimal, reproducible PoCs; avoid noisy payloads—prefer precise diffs.

-- Storage REST: https://storage.googleapis.com/storage/v1/b/<bucket>
-- Auth: Google-signed ID tokens (iss accounts.google.com/securetoken.google.com/<project>), aud <project/app-id>; identity is in sub/uid.
-- Rules engines: separate for Firestore, Realtime DB, and Storage; Functions bypass rules when using Admin SDK.

-
-<auth_and_tokens>
-- ID token verification must enforce issuer, audience (project), signature (Google JWKS), expiration, and optionally App Check binding when used.
-- Custom claims are appended by Admin SDK; client-supplied claims are ignored by Auth but may be trusted by app code if copied into docs.
-- Pitfalls:
-  - Accepting any JWT with valid signature but wrong audience/project.
-  - Trusting uid/account IDs from request body instead of context.auth.uid in Functions.
-  - Mixing session cookies and ID tokens without verifying both paths equivalently.
-- Tests:

-  - Call Functions with and without Authorization; verify identical checks on both onCall and onRequest variants.
-</auth_and_tokens>
-
-<firestore_rules>
-- Rules are not filters: a query must include constraints that make the rule true for all returned documents; otherwise reads fail. Do not rely on client to include where clauses correctly.
-- Prefer ownership derived from request.auth.uid and server data, not from client payload fields.
-- Common gaps:
-  - allow read: if request.auth != null (any user reads all data)
-  - allow write: if request.auth != null (mass write)
-  - Missing per-field validation (adds isAdmin/role/tenantId fields).
-  - Using client-supplied ownerId/orgId instead of enforcing doc.ownerId == request.auth.uid or membership in org.
-  - Over-broad list rules on root collections; per-doc checks exist but list still leaks via queries.
-- Validation patterns:
-  - Restrict writes: request.resource.data.keys().hasOnly([...]) and forbid privilege fields.
-  - Enforce ownership: resource.data.ownerId == request.auth.uid && request.resource.data.ownerId == request.auth.uid
-  - Org membership: exists(/databases/(default)/documents/orgs/$(org)/members/$(request.auth.uid))
-- Tests:
-  - Compare results for users A/B on identical queries; diff counts and IDs.
-  - Attempt cross-tenant reads: where orgId == otherOrg; try queries without org filter to confirm denial.
-  - Write-path: set/patch with foreign ownerId/orgId; attempt to flip privilege flags.

-
-<firestore_queries>
-- Enumerate via REST to avoid SDK client-side constraints; try structured and REST filters.
-- Probe composite index requirements: UI-driven queries may hide missing rule coverage when indexes are enabled but rules are broad.
-- Explore collection group queries (collectionGroup) that may bypass per-collection rules if not mirrored.
-- Use startAt/endAt/in/array-contains to probe rule edges and pagination cursors for cross-tenant bleed.

-- Misconfigured rules frequently expose entire JSON trees. Probe https://<project>.firebaseio.com/.json with and without auth.
-- Confirm rules for read/write use auth.uid and granular path checks; avoid .read/.write: true or auth != null at high-level nodes.
-- Attempt to write privilege-bearing nodes (roles, org membership) and observe downstream effects (e.g., Cloud Functions triggers).

-<cloud_storage>
-- Rules parallel Firestore but apply to object paths. Common issues:

-- onCall provides context.auth automatically; onRequest must verify ID tokens explicitly. Admin SDK bypasses rules; all ownership/tenant checks must be enforced in code.
-- Common gaps:
-  - Trusting client uid/orgId from request body instead of context.auth.
-  - Missing aud/iss verification when manually parsing tokens.
-  - Over-broad CORS allowing credentialed cross-origin requests; echoing Authorization in responses.
-  - Triggers (onCreate/onWrite) granting roles or issuing signed URLs solely based on document content controlled by the client.
-- Tests:
-  - Call both onCall and equivalent onRequest endpoints with varied tokens and bodies; expect identical decisions.
-  - Create crafted docs to trigger privilege-granting functions; verify that server re-derives subject/tenant before acting.
-  - Attempt internal fetches (SSRF) via Functions to project/metadata endpoints.
-</cloud_functions>
-
-<app_check>
-- App Check is not a substitute for authorization. Many apps enable App Check enforcement on client SDKs but do not verify on custom backends.
-- Bypasses:
-  - Unenforced paths: REST calls directly to googleapis endpoints with ID token succeed regardless of App Check.
-  - Mobile reverse engineering: hook client and reuse ID token flows without attestation.
-- Tests:
-  - Compare SDK vs REST behavior with/without App Check headers; confirm no elevated authorization via App Check alone.
-</app_check>
-
-<tenant_isolation>
-- Apps often implement multi-tenant data models (orgs/<orgId>/...). Bind tenant from server context (membership doc or custom claim), not from client payload.
-- Tests:
-  - Vary org header/subdomain/query while keeping token fixed; verify server denies cross-tenant access.
-  - Export/report Functions: ensure queries execute under caller scope; signed outputs must encode tenant and short TTL.
-</tenant_isolation>
-
-<bypass_techniques>
-- Content-type switching: JSON vs form vs multipart to hit alternate code paths in onRequest Functions.
-- Parameter/field pollution: duplicate JSON keys; last-one-wins in many parsers; attempt to sneak privilege fields.
-- Caching/CDN: Hosting rewrites or proxies that key responses without Authorization or tenant headers.
-- Race windows: write then read before background enforcements (e.g., post-write claim synchronizations) complete.
-</bypass_techniques>
-
-<blind_channels>
-- Firestore: use error shape, document count, and ETag/length to infer existence under partial denial.
-- Storage: length/timing differences on signed URL attempts leak validity.
-- Functions: constant-time comparisons vs variable messages reveal authorization branches.
-</blind_channels>
-
-<tooling_and_automation>
-- SDK + REST: httpie/curl + jq for REST; Firebase emulator and Rules Playground for rapid iteration.
-- Mobile: apktool/objection/frida to extract config and hook SDK calls; inspect network logs for endpoints and tokens.
-- Rules analysis: script rule probes for common patterns (auth != null, missing field validation, list vs get parity).
-- Functions: fuzz onRequest endpoints with varied content-types and missing/forged Authorization; verify CORS and token handling.
-- Storage: enumerate prefixes; test signed URL generation and reuse patterns.
-</tooling_and_automation>
-
-<reviewer_checklist>
-- Do Firestore/Realtime/Storage rules derive subject and tenant from auth, not client fields?
-- Are list/query rules aligned with per-doc checks (no broad list leaks)?
-- Are privilege-bearing fields immutable or server-only (forbidden in writes)?
-- Do Functions verify ID tokens (iss/aud/exp/signature) and re-derive identity before acting?
-- Are Admin SDK operations scoped by server-side checks (ownership/tenant)?
-- Is App Check treated as advisory, not authorization, across all paths?
-- Are Hosting/CDN cache keys bound to Authorization/tenant to prevent leaks?
-</reviewer_checklist>
-
-<validation>
-1. Provide owner vs non-owner Firestore queries showing unauthorized access or metadata leak.
-2. Demonstrate Cloud Storage read/write beyond intended scope (public object, signed URL reuse, or list exposure).
-3. Show a Function accepting forged/foreign identity (wrong aud/iss) or trusting client uid/orgId.
-4. Document minimal reproducible requests with roles/tokens used and observed deltas.
-</validation>
-
-<false_positives>
-- Public collections/objects documented and intended.
-- Rules that correctly enforce per-doc checks with matching query constraints.
-- Functions verifying tokens and ignoring client-supplied identifiers.
-- App Check enforced but not relied upon for authorization.
-</false_positives>
-
-<impact>
-- Cross-account and cross-tenant data exposure.
-- Unauthorized state changes via Functions or direct writes.
-- Exfiltration of PII/PHI and private files from Storage.
-- Durable privilege escalation via misused custom claims or triggers.
-</impact>
-
-<pro_tips>
-1. Treat apiKey as project identifier only; identity must come from verified ID tokens.
-2. Start from rules: read them, then prove gaps with diffed owner/non-owner requests.
-3. Prefer REST for parity checks; SDKs can mask errors via client-side filters.
-4. Hunt privilege fields in docs and forbid them via rules; verify immutability.
-5. Probe collectionGroup queries and list rules; many leaks live there.
-6. Functions are the authority boundary—enforce subject/tenant there even if rules exist.
-7. Keep concise PoCs: one owner vs non-owner request per surface that clearly demonstrates the unauthorized delta.
-</pro_tips>
-
-<remember>Authorization must hold at every layer: rules, Functions, and Storage. Bind subject and tenant from verified tokens and server data, never from client payload or UI assumptions. Any gap becomes a cross-account or cross-tenant vulnerability.</remember>

-<title>SUPABASE — ADVERSARIAL TESTING AND EXPLOITATION</title>
-
-<critical>Supabase exposes Postgres through PostgREST, Realtime, GraphQL, Storage, Auth (GoTrue), and Edge Functions. Most impactful findings come from mis-scoped Row Level Security (RLS), unsafe RPCs, leaked service_role keys, lax Storage policies, GraphQL overfetching, and Edge Functions trusting headers or tokens without binding to issuer/audience/tenant.</critical>
-
-<scope>
-- PostgREST: table CRUD, filters, embeddings, RPC (remote functions)
-- RLS: row ownership/tenant isolation via policies and auth.uid()
-- Storage: buckets, objects, signed URLs, public/private policies
-- Realtime: replication subscriptions, broadcast/presence channels
-- GraphQL: pg_graphql over Postgres schema with RLS interaction
-- Auth (GoTrue): JWTs, cookie/session, magic links, OAuth flows
-- Edge Functions (Deno): server-side code calling Supabase with secrets
-</scope>
-
-<methodology>
-1. Inventory surfaces: REST /rest/v1, Storage /storage/v1, GraphQL /graphql/v1, Realtime wss, Auth /auth/v1, Functions https://<project>.functions.supabase.co/.
-2. Obtain tokens for: unauth (anon), basic user, other user, and (if disclosed) admin/staff; enumerate anon key exposure and verify if service_role leaked anywhere.
-3. Build a Resource × Action × Principal matrix and test each via REST and GraphQL. Confirm parity across channels and content-types (json/form/multipart).
-4. Start with list/search/export endpoints to gather IDs, then attempt direct reads/writes across principals, tenants, and transports. Validate RLS and function guards.
-</methodology>
-
-<architecture>
-- Project endpoints: https://<ref>.supabase.co; REST at /rest/v1/<table>, RPC at /rest/v1/rpc/<fn>.
-- Headers: apikey: <anon-or-service>, Authorization: Bearer <JWT>. Anon key only identifies the project; JWT binds user context.
-- Roles: anon, authenticated; service_role bypasses RLS and must never be client-exposed.
-- auth.uid(): current user UUID claim; policies must never trust client-supplied IDs over server context.
-</architecture>
-
-<rls>
-- Enable RLS on every non-public table; absence or “permit-all” policies → bulk exposure.
-- Common gaps:
-  - Policies check auth.uid() for read but forget UPDATE/DELETE/INSERT.
-  - Missing tenant constraints (org_id/tenant_id) allow cross-tenant reads/writes.
-  - Policies rely on client-provided columns (user_id in payload) instead of deriving from JWT.
-  - Complex joins where the effective policy is applied after filters, enabling inference via counts or projections.
-- Tests:
-  - Compare results for two users: GET /rest/v1/<table>?select=*&Prefer=count=exact; diff row counts and IDs.
-  - Try cross-tenant: add &org_id=eq.<other_org> or use or=(org_id.eq.other,org_id.is.null).
-  - Write-path: PATCH/DELETE single row with foreign id; INSERT with foreign owner_id then read.
-</rls>
-
-<postgrest_and_rest>
-- Filters: eq, neq, lt, gt, ilike, or, is, in; embed relations with select=*,profile(*); exploit embeddings to overfetch linked rows if resolvers skip per-row checks.
-- Headers to know: Prefer: return=representation (echo writes), Prefer: count=exact (exposure via counts), Accept-Profile/Content-Profile to select schema.
-- IDOR patterns: /rest/v1/<table>?select=*&id=eq.<other_id>; query alternative keys (slug, email) and composite keys.
-- Search leaks: generous LIKE/ILIKE filters + lack of RLS → mass disclosure.
-- Mass assignment: if RPC not used, PATCH can update unintended columns; verify restricted columns via database permissions/policies.
-</postgrest_and_rest>
-
-<rpc_functions>
-- RPC endpoints map to SQL functions. SECURITY DEFINER bypasses RLS unless carefully coded; SECURITY INVOKER respects caller.
-- Anti-patterns:
-  - SECURITY DEFINER + missing owner checks → vertical/horizontal bypass.
-  - set search_path left to public; function resolves unsafe objects.
-  - Trusting client-supplied user_id/tenant_id rather than auth.uid().
-- Tests:
-  - Call /rest/v1/rpc/<fn> as different users with foreign ids in body.
-  - Remove or alter JWT entirely (Authorization: Bearer <anon>) to see if function still executes.
-  - Validate that functions perform explicit ownership/tenant checks inside SQL, not only in docs.
-</rpc_functions>
-
-<storage>
-- Buckets: public vs private; objects live in storage.objects with RLS-like policies.
-- Find misconfigs:
-  - Public buckets holding sensitive data: GET https://<ref>.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/<bucket>/<path>
-  - Signed URLs with long TTL and no audience binding; reuse/guess tokens across tenants/paths.
-  - Listing prefixes without auth: /storage/v1/object/list/<bucket>?prefix=
-  - Path confusion: mixed case, URL-encoding, “..” segments rejected at UI but accepted by API.
-- Abuse vectors:
-  - Content-type/XSS: upload HTML/SVG served as text/html or image/svg+xml; confirm X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff and Content-Disposition: attachment.
-  - Signed URL replay across accounts/buckets if validation is lax.
-</storage>
-
-<realtime>
-- Endpoint: wss://<ref>.supabase.co/realtime/v1. Join channels with apikey + Authorization.
-- Risks:
-  - Channel names derived from table/schema/filters leaking other users’ updates when RLS or channel guards are weak.
-  - Broadcast/presence channels allowing cross-room join/publish without auth checks.
-- Tests:
-  - Subscribe to public:realtime changes on protected tables; confirm row data visibility aligns with RLS.
-  - Attempt joining other users’ presence/broadcast channels (e.g., room:<user_id>, org:<id>).
-</realtime>
-
-<graphql>
-- Endpoint: /graphql/v1 using pg_graphql with RLS. Risks:
-  - Introspection reveals schema relations; ensure it’s intentional.
-  - Overfetch via nested relations where field resolvers fail to re-check ownership/tenant.
-  - Global node IDs (if implemented) leaked and reusable via different viewers.
-- Tests:
-  - Compare REST vs GraphQL responses for the same principal and query shape.
-  - Query deep nested fields and connections; verify RLS holds at each edge.
-</graphql>
-
-<auth_and_tokens>
-- GoTrue issues JWTs with claims (sub=uid, role, aud=authenticated). Validate on server: issuer, audience, exp, signature, and tenant context.
-- Pitfalls:
-  - Storing tokens in localStorage → XSS exfiltration; refresh mismanagement leading to long-lived sessions.
-  - Treating apikey as identity; it is project-scoped, not user identity.
-  - Exposing service_role key in client bundle or Edge Function responses.
-- Tests:
-  - Replay tokens across services; check audience/issuer pinning.
-  - Try downgraded tokens (expired/other audience) against custom endpoints.
-</auth_and_tokens>
-
-<edge_functions>
-- Deno-based functions often initialize server-side Supabase client with service_role. Risks:
-  - Trusting Authorization/apikey headers without verifying JWT against issuer/audience.
-  - CORS: wildcard origins with credentials; reflected Authorization in responses.
-  - SSRF via fetch; secrets exposed via error traces or logs.
-- Tests:
-  - Call functions with and without Authorization; compare behavior.
-  - Try foreign resource IDs in function payloads; verify server re-derives user/tenant from JWT.
-  - Attempt to reach internal endpoints (metadata services, project endpoints) via function fetch.
-</edge_functions>
-
-<tenant_isolation>
-- Ensure every query joins or filters by tenant_id/org_id derived from JWT context, not client input.
-- Tests:
-  - Change subdomain/header/path tenant selectors while keeping JWT tenant constant; look for cross-tenant data.
-  - Export/report endpoints: confirm queries execute under caller scope; signed outputs must encode tenant and short TTL.
-</tenant_isolation>
-
-<bypass_techniques>
-- Content-type switching: application/json ↔ application/x-www-form-urlencoded ↔ multipart/form-data to hit different code paths.
-- Parameter pollution: duplicate keys in JSON/query; PostgREST chooses last/first depending on parser.
-- GraphQL+REST parity probing: protections often drift; fetch via the weaker path.
-- Race windows: parallel writes to bypass post-insert ownership updates.
-</bypass_techniques>
-
-<blind_channels>
-- Use Prefer: count=exact and ETag/length diffs to infer unauthorized rows.
-- Conditional requests (If-None-Match) to detect object existence without content exposure.
-- Storage signed URLs: timing/length deltas to map valid vs invalid tokens.
-</blind_channels>
-
-<tooling_and_automation>
-- PostgREST: httpie/curl + jq; enumerate tables with known names; fuzz filters (or=, ilike, neq, is.null).
-- GraphQL: graphql-inspector, voyager; build deep queries to test field-level enforcement; complexity/batching tests.
-- Realtime: custom ws client; subscribe to suspicious channels/tables; diff payloads per principal.
-- Storage: enumerate bucket listing APIs; script signed URL generation/use patterns.
-- Auth/JWT: jwt-cli/jose to validate audience/issuer; replay against Edge Functions.
-- Policy diffing: maintain request sets per role and compare results across releases.

-
-<reviewer_checklist>
-- Are all non-public tables RLS-enabled with explicit SELECT/INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE policies?
-- Do policies derive subject/tenant from JWT (auth.uid(), tenant claim) rather than client payload?
-- Do RPC functions run as SECURITY INVOKER, or if DEFINER, do they enforce ownership/tenant inside?
-- Are Storage buckets private by default, with short-lived signed URLs bound to tenant/context?
-- Does Realtime enforce RLS-equivalent filtering for subscriptions and block cross-room joins?
-- Is GraphQL parity verified with REST; are nested resolvers guarded per field?
-- Are Edge Functions verifying JWT (issuer/audience) and never exposing service_role to clients?
-- Are CDN/cache keys bound to Authorization/tenant to prevent cache leaks?

-<validation>
-1. Provide owner vs non-owner requests for REST/GraphQL showing unauthorized access (content or metadata).
-2. Demonstrate a mis-scoped RPC or Storage signed URL usable by another user/tenant.
-3. Confirm Realtime or GraphQL exposure matches missing policy checks.
-4. Document minimal reproducible requests and role contexts used.
-</validation>
-
-<false_positives>
-- Tables intentionally public (documented) with non-sensitive content.
-- RLS-enabled tables returning only caller-owned rows; mismatched UI not backed by API responses.
-- Signed URLs with very short TTL and audience binding.
-- Edge Functions verifying tokens and re-deriving context before acting.
-</false_positives>
-
-<impact>
-- Cross-account/tenant data exposure and unauthorized state changes.
-- Exfiltration of PII/PHI/PCI, financial and billing artifacts, private files.
-- Privilege escalation via RPC and Edge Functions; durable access via long-lived tokens.
-- Regulatory and contractual violations stemming from tenant isolation failures.
-</impact>
-
-<pro_tips>
-1. Start with /rest/v1 list/search; counts and embeddings reveal policy drift fast.
-2. Treat UUIDs and signed URLs as untrusted; validate binding to subject/tenant and TTL.
-3. Focus on RPC and Edge Functions—they often centralize business logic and skip RLS.
-4. Test GraphQL and Realtime parity with REST; differences are where vulnerabilities hide.
-5. Keep role-separated request corpora and diff responses across deployments.
-6. Never assume apikey == identity; only JWT binds subject. Prove it.
-7. Prefer concise PoCs: one request per role that clearly shows the unauthorized delta.
-</pro_tips>
-
-<remember>RLS must bind subject and tenant on every path, and server-side code (RPC/Edge) must re-derive identity from a verified token. Any gap in binding, audience/issuer verification, or per-field enforcement becomes a cross-account or cross-tenant vulnerability.</remember>

-- Enforce resolver-level checks: do not rely on a top-level gate. Verify field and edge resolvers bind the resource to the caller on every hop
-- Abuse batching/aliases to retrieve multiple users' nodes in one request and compare responses
-- Global node patterns (Relay): decode base64 IDs and swap raw IDs; test {% raw %}node(id: "...base64..."){...}{% endraw %}
-- Overfetching via fragments on privileged types; verify hidden fields cannot be queried by unprivileged callers
-- Example:
-{% raw %}
-query IDOR {
-  me { id }
-  u1: user(id: "VXNlcjo0NTY=") { email billing { last4 } }

-
-<pro_tips>
-1. Always test list/search/export endpoints first; they are rich ID seeders.
-2. Build a reusable ID corpus from logs, notifications, emails, and client bundles.
-3. Toggle content-types and transports; authorization middleware often differs per stack.
-4. In GraphQL, validate at resolver boundaries; never trust parent auth to cover children.
-5. In multi-tenant apps, vary org headers, subdomains, and path params independently.
-6. Check batch/bulk operations and background job endpoints; they frequently skip per-item checks.
-7. Inspect gateways for header trust and cache key configuration.
-8. Treat UUIDs as untrusted; obtain them via OSINT/leaks and test binding.
-9. Use timing/size/ETag differentials for blind confirmation when content is masked.
-10. Prove impact with precise before/after diffs and role-separated evidence.
-</pro_tips>

-<remember>Authorization must bind subject, action, and specific object on every request, regardless of identifier opacity or transport. If the binding is missing anywhere, the system is vulnerable.</remember>

-6. Test finalize/complete steps in resumable flows; many validations only run on init, not at completion.
-7. Verify background processors with EICAR and tiny polyglots; ensure quarantine gates access until safe.

-<validation>
-1. Provide a minimal, reliable oracle (DNS/HTTP/timing) proving code execution.
-2. Show command context (uid, gid, cwd, env) and controlled output.
-3. Demonstrate persistence or file write under application constraints.
-4. If containerized, prove boundary crossing attempts (host files, kube APIs) and whether they succeed.
-5. Keep PoCs minimal and reproducible across runs and transports.
-</validation>
-
-<false_positives>
-- Only crashes or timeouts without controlled behavior
-- Filtered execution of a limited command subset with no attacker-controlled args
-- Sandboxed interpreters executing in a restricted VM with no IO or process spawn
-- Simulated outputs not derived from executed commands
-</false_positives>
-
-<impact>
-- Remote system control under application user; potential privilege escalation to root
-- Data theft, encryption/signing key compromise, supply-chain insertion, lateral movement
-- Cluster compromise when combined with container/Kubernetes misconfigurations

-<pro_tips>
-1. Prefer OAST oracles; avoid long sleeps—short gated delays reduce noise.
-2. When command injection is weak, pivot to file write or deserialization/SSTI paths for stable control.
-3. Treat converters/renderers as first-class sinks; many run out-of-process with powerful delegates.
-4. For Java/.NET, enumerate classpaths/assemblies and known gadgets; verify with out-of-band payloads.
-5. Confirm environment: PATH, shell, umask, SELinux/AppArmor, container caps; it informs payload choice.
-6. Keep payloads portable (POSIX/BusyBox/PowerShell) and minimize dependencies.
-7. Document the smallest exploit chain that proves durable impact; avoid unnecessary shell drops.
-</pro_tips>
-
-<remember>RCE is a property of the execution boundary. Find the sink, establish a quiet oracle, and escalate to durable control only as far as necessary. Validate across transports and environments; defenses often differ per code path.</remember>
