What is this?

claude-bughunter is a drop-in skill bundle for the Claude Code skills system. Install once and Claude Code stops being a chatbot and starts behaving like a senior bug-hunting researcher or red-team operator: it knows the techniques, the chain templates, the VRT mappings, the platform CVE chains, and the hygiene — and it stays in scope.

Four layers stack:

Think — bb-methodology + redteam-mindset: the 5-phase non-linear workflow, critical-thinking framework, and red-team operator discipline.
Hunt webapps — 58 hunt-* skills curated from 681 disclosed HackerOne reports: per-class detection patterns, payloads, bypass tables, and chain templates.
Hit the perimeter — enterprise platform chains (M365/Entra, Okta, vCenter, SSL-VPN appliances, SharePoint, cloud IAM): current 2024–2026 CVE chains + post-credential escalation.
Ship it — triage-validation + reporting + evidence-hygiene: the 7-Question Gate, VRT-aware severity, OOS rebuttals, PII redaction, and red-team deliverables.

All triggered automatically by topic — describe what you're testing in plain English and the relevant skill loads. No invocation by name.

Quickstart

Option A — install as a Claude Code plugin (recommended). From inside Claude Code:

/plugin marketplace add elementalsouls/Claude-BugHunter
/plugin install claude-bughunter@elementalsouls

All 83 skills + 15 commands load namespaced under claude-bughunter: and update when you bump the plugin version — no files copied into ~/.claude/.

Option B — copy install (no plugin system / pin to a clone):

git clone https://github.com/elementalsouls/Claude-BugHunter.git
cd Claude-BugHunter

# macOS / Linux
bash scripts/install.sh

# Windows (PowerShell)
pwsh ./scripts/install.ps1

Both copy the skills + commands into ~/.claude/ (macOS/Linux) or %USERPROFILE%\.claude\ (Windows) and wire the hunt engagement scaffolder.

What each install path gives you:

Path	83 skills + 15 slash commands	`cbh` CLI	`hunt` scaffolder
A — plugin	✅ namespaced under `claude-bughunter:`	➕ separate `pipx install`	❌ clone-only
B — copy install	✅ copied into `~/.claude/`	✅ from the clone	✅ from the clone

The plugin is the fastest path to the skills + slash commands. The terminal-native cbh runner installs standalone — pipx install git+https://github.com/elementalsouls/Claude-BugHunter — so plugin users can add it without a full clone (see cbh CLI). The hunt engagement scaffolder ships with the clone (Option B).

That's it. Open Claude Code and describe what you're testing in plain English — the right skill loads automatically, no invocation by name:

    → live hosts (httpx) … 12 · tech fingerprint … 6 distinct stacks
    → ranked surface: api.acme.com (GraphQL, introspection ON)  ← start here

  Next: want me to probe the GraphQL introspection + OAuth redirect_uri?

Runs on multiple agent harnesses

One install, agent harnesses — Claude Code, OpenCode, Codex CLI, Hermes Agent, Google AntiGravity

The skills are plain Agent Skills — the same SKILL.md format that Claude Code · OpenCode · OpenAI Codex CLI · Hermes Agent · Google AntiGravity all load. One command installs them everywhere:

# macOS / Linux
bash scripts/install.sh --all --burp-mcp

# Windows (PowerShell)
pwsh ./scripts/install.ps1 -All -BurpMcp

Harness	Target Skill Directory	Flag
Claude Code (baseline)	`~/.claude/skills/`	(default)
OpenCode	reads `~/.claude/skills/` & `~/.agents/skills/`	(default) / `--agents`
OpenAI Codex CLI	`~/.agents/skills/`	`--agents`
Hermes Agent	`~/.hermes/skills/`	`--hermes`
Google AntiGravity	`~/.gemini/config/skills/`	`--antigravity`

--all (-All) detects installed harnesses and copies skills to each harness's path (~/.claude/skills, ~/.agents/skills, ~/.hermes/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills); --burp-mcp (-BurpMcp) wires the Burp MCP server into each. The full knowledge layer ports to all five — the slash commands and /hunt engine stay Claude-Code-only by design.

Scope — what this bundle is for, and what it isn't

This bundle covers the external attack surface — anything reachable from the internet without first compromising an internal endpoint.
