What it does
Browser Extension Reverse is an agent skill from zhaoxuya520/reverse-skill. Use for authorized reverse engineering of browser extensions (Chrome/Firefox) including manifest analysis, background workers, and extension-based credential or traffic logic recovery.
Its SKILL.md is about 370 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/extension-analysis.md`).
It sits in Security, covering Browser extensions and Reverse engineering and malware. It works with Chrome Extensions. The repository describes itself as: Reverse Engineering / Authorized Penetration Testing / Security Research Skill Router Pack AI-powered routing + On-demand toolchain bootstrapping + Self-evolving knowledge base…. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Authorized reverse engineering of browser extensions (Chrome/Firefox) including manifest analysis
- Background workers
- Extension-based credential
- Traffic logic recovery
Example prompts
- “/browser-extension-reverse”
Workflow steps
3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cab634b. 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
Browser Extension Reverse loads about 366 tokens when it runs, and up to ~448 if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 53 tokens; SKILL.md has 75 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.

Browser Extension Reverse Engineering
ACTION REQUIRED（读完后立刻执行）
NOW: 读取../field-journal/precedent-reverse.mdNOW: 确认目标是浏览器扩展（crx/xpi/解压目录），不是普通网页 JS（普通 →js-reverse/）NEXT: 解压扩展；读 manifestACT: 权限面 → 后台脚本 → 网络/存储钩子
适用场景
- Chrome/Edge MV2/MV3 扩展分析
- Firefox 扩展
- 恶意扩展 IOC、供应链扩展投毒调查
- 扩展实现的签名/加密/代理逻辑还原
工作流
1. 包体
□ crx 解压 / 从 profile 取扩展目录
□ manifest.json：permissions、host_permissions、background、content_scripts
□ 评估过度权限（<all_urls>、webRequest、debugger）2. 逻辑
□ service_worker / background 入口
□ content_script 注入点与世界（isolated）
□ chrome.storage / IndexedDB 密钥
□ 与 `js-reverse` 相同：Observe 网络与消息传递（runtime.sendMessage）3. 动态
□ 开发者模式加载解压目录
□ chrome://extensions 检查错误
□ DevTools 附加 service worker
□ 必要时 Frida/浏览器 CDP（jshookmcp）工具链
| 工具 | 用途 |
|---|---|
| 解压/jq | manifest |
| Chrome DevTools | worker 调试 |
| js-reverse 工具链 | 深度 JS |
| YARA | 恶意扩展规则 |
