What it does

Subfinder Recon is an agent skill from wgpsec/AboutSecurity. 使用 subfinder 进行被动子域名枚举。当需要发现目标域名的子域名、扩展攻击面时使用。subfinder 是 ProjectDiscovery 出品的被动子域名发现工具,聚合 Shodan、Censys、SecurityTrails、VirusTotal 等多数据源,快速且隐蔽。任何涉及子域名枚举、攻击面发现、被动信息收集的场景都应使用此技能

Its SKILL.md is about 500 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 OSINT. 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。

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve OSINT

Example prompts

  • “/subfinder-recon”

Workflow steps

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

  1. 基本使用
  2. 数据源配置
  3. 管道集成
  4. 高级选项

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 914ffb5. 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

Subfinder Recon loads about 500 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 48 tokens; SKILL.md has 61 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~48
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~500

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 61 words (~500 tokens).

“subfinder 是 ProjectDiscovery 出品的被动子域名发现工具。核心优势:纯被动(不产生目标流量)+ 多数据源聚合(40+ 源)+ 管道友好。”
