What it does

Nerva Scan is an agent skill from wgpsec/AboutSecurity. 使用 nerva 进行高性能服务指纹识别。当需要识别开放端口的具体服务时使用。nerva 支持 120+ 协议(数据库、远程访问、消息队列、工控、Web 等),是 fingerprintx 的升级版。任何涉及服务识别、协议探测、端口指纹的场景都应使用此技能

Its SKILL.md is about 270 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Everything for pentest. | 渗透测试知识库,以 AI Agent 可执行的格式沉淀安全方法论。

Example prompts

  • “/nerva-scan”

Workflow steps

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

  1. 基本使用
  2. 扫描模式
  3. 管道集成

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d428372. 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 bash).

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

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • github.com

    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

Nerva Scan loads about 265 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 35 tokens; SKILL.md has 21 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~35
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~265

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: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NoteRuns commands with sudoSKILL.md:54
    sudo masscan 10.0.0.0/24 -p 1-10000 -oL - | \

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 21 words (~265 tokens).

“nerva 是 Praetorian 出品的服务指纹识别工具(fingerprintx 升级版)。核心优势:120+ 协议 + TCP/UDP/SCTP 多传输层 + 丰富元数据提取。”
