--- name: pilot-penetration-testing-setup description: > Deploy an automated penetration testing pipeline with 4 agents. Use this skill when: 1. User wants to set up a penetration testing or security assessment pipeline 2. User is configuring an agent as part of a vulnerability scanning workflow 3. User asks about recon, vulnerability scanning, exploit validation, or pentest reporting across agents Do NOT use this skill when: - User wants to run a single vulnerability scan (use pilot-task-parallel instead) - User wants to send a one-off security alert (use pilot-webhook-bridge instead) tags: - pilot-protocol - setup - security - pentest license: AGPL-3.0 metadata: author: vulture-labs version: "1.0" openclaw: requires: bins: - pilotctl - clawhub homepage: https://pilotprotocol.network allowed-tools: - Bash --- # Penetration Testing Setup Deploy 4 agents that perform recon, scan vulnerabilities, validate exploits, and generate reports. ## Roles | Role | Hostname | Skills | Purpose | |------|----------|--------|---------| | recon | `-recon` | pilot-discover, pilot-stream-data, pilot-archive | DNS enumeration, port scanning, service fingerprinting | | scanner | `-scanner` | pilot-task-parallel, pilot-metrics, pilot-dataset | Vulnerability scans, CVE checks, misconfiguration detection | | exploiter | `-exploiter` | pilot-task-chain, pilot-audit-log, pilot-receipt | Safe proof-of-concept validation, exploitability confirmation | | reporter | `-reporter` | pilot-webhook-bridge, pilot-share, pilot-slack-bridge | Report generation with findings, risk ratings, remediation | ## Setup Procedure **Step 1:** Ask the user which role this agent should play and what prefix to use. **Step 2:** Install the skills for the chosen role: ```bash # For recon: clawhub install pilot-discover pilot-stream-data pilot-archive # For scanner: clawhub install pilot-task-parallel pilot-metrics pilot-dataset # For exploiter: clawhub install pilot-task-chain pilot-audit-log pilot-receipt # For reporter: clawhub install pilot-webhook-bridge pilot-share pilot-slack-bridge ``` **Step 3:** Set the hostname: ```bash pilotctl --json set-hostname - ``` **Step 4:** Write the setup manifest: ```bash mkdir -p ~/.pilot/setups cat > ~/.pilot/setups/penetration-testing.json << 'MANIFEST' MANIFEST ``` **Step 5:** Tell the user to initiate handshakes with direct communication peers. ## Manifest Templates Per Role ### recon ```json { "setup": "penetration-testing", "setup_name": "Penetration Testing", "role": "recon", "role_name": "Reconnaissance Agent", "hostname": "-recon", "description": "Performs passive and active reconnaissance — DNS enumeration, port scanning, service fingerprinting.", "skills": { "pilot-discover": "Enumerate DNS records, subdomains, and service endpoints.", "pilot-stream-data": "Stream port scan results and fingerprints in real time.", "pilot-archive": "Archive recon snapshots for baseline comparison." }, "peers": [{"role": "scanner", "hostname": "-scanner", "description": "Receives recon results for vulnerability scanning"}], "data_flows": [{"direction": "send", "peer": "-scanner", "port": 1002, "topic": "recon-result", "description": "Recon results with target profile and services"}], "handshakes_needed": ["-scanner"] } ``` ### scanner ```json { "setup": "penetration-testing", "setup_name": "Penetration Testing", "role": "scanner", "role_name": "Vulnerability Scanner", "hostname": "-scanner", "description": "Runs automated vulnerability scans, checks CVE databases, identifies misconfigurations.", "skills": { "pilot-task-parallel": "Run multiple scan tools in parallel across target services.", "pilot-metrics": "Track scan coverage, finding counts, and severity distribution.", "pilot-dataset": "Store CVE matches and vulnerability metadata." }, "peers": [{"role": "recon", "hostname": "-recon", "description": "Sends recon results"}, {"role": "exploiter", "hostname": "-exploiter", "description": "Receives vulnerability findings"}], "data_flows": [ {"direction": "receive", "peer": "-recon", "port": 1002, "topic": "recon-result", "description": "Recon results with target profile and services"}, {"direction": "send", "peer": "-exploiter", "port": 1002, "topic": "vulnerability", "description": "Vulnerability findings with CVE and severity"} ], "handshakes_needed": ["-recon", "-exploiter"] } ``` ### exploiter ```json { "setup": "penetration-testing", "setup_name": "Penetration Testing", "role": "exploiter", "role_name": "Exploit Validator", "hostname": "-exploiter", "description": "Validates discovered vulnerabilities with safe proof-of-concept tests, confirms exploitability.", "skills": { "pilot-task-chain": "Chain validation steps: verify, exploit, document evidence.", "pilot-audit-log": "Log all validation attempts with timestamps and results.", "pilot-receipt": "Confirm receipt of vulnerability findings from scanner." }, "peers": [{"role": "scanner", "hostname": "-scanner", "description": "Sends vulnerability findings"}, {"role": "reporter", "hostname": "-reporter", "description": "Receives validated findings"}], "data_flows": [ {"direction": "receive", "peer": "-scanner", "port": 1002, "topic": "vulnerability", "description": "Vulnerability findings with CVE and severity"}, {"direction": "send", "peer": "-reporter", "port": 1002, "topic": "validated-finding", "description": "Validated findings with proof-of-concept evidence"} ], "handshakes_needed": ["-scanner", "-reporter"] } ``` ### reporter ```json { "setup": "penetration-testing", "setup_name": "Penetration Testing", "role": "reporter", "role_name": "Pentest Reporter", "hostname": "-reporter", "description": "Generates pentest reports with findings, risk ratings, remediation steps, and executive summary.", "skills": { "pilot-webhook-bridge": "Deliver reports to client portals and ticketing systems.", "pilot-share": "Share report drafts with stakeholders for review.", "pilot-slack-bridge": "Notify security team of completed assessments." }, "peers": [{"role": "exploiter", "hostname": "-exploiter", "description": "Sends validated findings with evidence"}], "data_flows": [ {"direction": "receive", "peer": "-exploiter", "port": 1002, "topic": "validated-finding", "description": "Validated findings with proof-of-concept evidence"}, {"direction": "send", "peer": "external", "port": 443, "topic": "pentest-report", "description": "Pentest report via webhook and Slack"} ], "handshakes_needed": ["-exploiter"] } ``` ## Data Flows - `recon -> scanner` : recon-result events (port 1002) - `scanner -> exploiter` : vulnerability events (port 1002) - `exploiter -> reporter` : validated-finding events (port 1002) - `reporter -> external` : pentest-report via webhook (port 443) ## Handshakes ```bash # recon <-> scanner: pilotctl --json handshake -scanner "setup: penetration-testing" pilotctl --json handshake -recon "setup: penetration-testing" # scanner <-> exploiter: pilotctl --json handshake -exploiter "setup: penetration-testing" pilotctl --json handshake -scanner "setup: penetration-testing" # exploiter <-> reporter: pilotctl --json handshake -reporter "setup: penetration-testing" pilotctl --json handshake -exploiter "setup: penetration-testing" ``` ## Workflow Example ```bash # On scanner — subscribe to recon results: pilotctl --json subscribe -recon recon-result # On exploiter — subscribe to vulnerabilities: pilotctl --json subscribe -scanner vulnerability # On reporter — subscribe to validated findings: pilotctl --json subscribe -exploiter validated-finding # On recon — publish a recon result: pilotctl --json publish -scanner recon-result '{"target":"app.example.com","open_ports":[22,80,443,8080]}' # On exploiter — publish a validated finding: pilotctl --json publish -reporter validated-finding '{"cve":"CVE-2023-46589","validated":true,"impact":"RCE"}' ``` ## Dependencies Requires `pilot-protocol` skill, `pilotctl` binary, `clawhub` binary, and a running daemon.
