  • Works in 8 steps: Passive subdomain discovery (subfinder) → Active subdomain enumeration (amass) → DNS zone transfer and record enumeration… → …
  • Tasks that involve Penetration testing

What it does

Subdomain Enum is an agent skill from CommonHuman-Lab/nyxstrike. Subdomain and DNS enumeration workflow using subfinder, amass, dnsenum, fierce, theharvester, gau, and waybackurls

Its SKILL.md is about 860 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Security, covering Penetration testing. The repository describes itself as: AI Powered penetration testing Platform for offensive security research.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Penetration testing

Example prompts

  • “/subdomain-enum”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Passive subdomain discovery (subfinder)
  2. Active subdomain enumeration (amass)
  3. DNS zone transfer and record enumeration (dnsenum)
  4. DNS reconnaissance (fierce)
  5. Email, host, and URL harvesting (theharvester)
  6. Historical URL discovery (gau + waybackurls)
  7. WHOIS lookup
  8. HTTP probe discovered subdomains (httpx)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3ac7449. 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.

    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

Subdomain Enum loads about 858 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 32 tokens; SKILL.md has 288 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~32
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~858

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

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 288 words (~858 tokens).

“Subdomain and DNS reconnaissance workflow for NyxStrike. Use this skill when a user wants to enumerate subdomains, discover DNS records, find email addresses, or build a full attack surface map for a domain.”
