What it does

Burp Suite Testing is an agent skill from aiskillstore/marketplace. This skill should be used when the user asks to "intercept HTTP traffic", "modify web requests", "use Burp Suite for testing", "perform web vulnerability scanning", "test with Burp ...

Its SKILL.md is about 2.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `skill-report.json`).

It sits in Security, covering Penetration testing and Web application vulnerabilities. It works with Burp Suite. The repository describes itself as: Security-audited skills for Claude, Codex & Claude Code. One-click install, quality verified.

When your agent uses it

  • Asks to intercept HTTP traffic
  • Modify web requests
  • Use Burp Suite for testing
  • Perform web vulnerability scanning

Example prompts

  • “intercept HTTP traffic”
  • “modify web requests”
  • “use Burp Suite for testing”
  • “/burp-suite-testing”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Intercepting HTTP Traffic
  2. Modifying Requests
  3. Setting Target Scope
  4. Using Burp Repeater
  5. Running Automated Scans
  6. Intruder Attacks

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 755bc35. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are http).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Burp Suite Testing loads about 2.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 51 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,153 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~51
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.7k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,153 words (~2,710 tokens).

“Execute comprehensive web application security testing using Burp Suite's integrated toolset, including HTTP traffic interception and modification, request analysis and replay, automated vulnerability scanning, and manual testing workflows. This skill enables systematic discovery and exploitation of web application vulnerabilities through…”
