Full-scope penetration testing — reconnaissance, vulnerability discovery, exploitation, post-exploitation, and reporting against authorized targets. Covers network, web app, API, and host pentesting.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Penetration Testing

Complete methodology for running authorized penetration tests against scoped
targets using OSA's sandboxed execution environment.

## When to use this skill

- The operator asks for a penetration test, security assessment, or red team
  engagement against a specified target
- The operator provides a target (domain, IP, URL, network range) and asks to
  "test its security" or "find vulnerabilities"
- The operator is doing bug bounty and wants to find and exploit vulnerabilities
- The operator asks to write an exploit, reverse shell, or attack payload

## Prerequisites

1. **Sandbox configured**: The pentest sandbox image must be built and the
   Docker backend selected. Run `mix osa.sandbox.setup` and choose the pentest
   image, or set `"backend": "docker"` with `"image": "osa/pentest:latest"` in
   `~/.osa/sandbox.json`.

2. **Network access**: The pentest sandbox requires network access (unlike the
   default code sandbox which is `--network none`). The pentest Dockerfile
   does not restrict networking — the operator must ensure the sandbox can
   reach the target.

3. **Scope**: The operator must provide or confirm the target scope before

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add miosa-osa/osa/penetration-testing@sha256:227981b3955b9cc9

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260823.2bb98fe, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
