HawkScan findings reference: JSON output schema (--json-output), field reference, thresholdResult to exit code mapping, agentic fix task format, priority rules (severity, exploitability ordering), common findings quick reference (SQL injection, XSS, IDOR, path traversal, broken auth, information disclosure).

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.

# Findings Parsing and Fix Task Reference

- [Agentic Fix Task Format](#agentic-fix-task-format)
- [Common Findings Quick Reference](#common-findings-quick-reference)

## JSON Output Schema (`--json-output`)

When running with `--json-output`, HawkScan produces a single pretty-printed JSON
object to stdout. All other output (progress bars, banners, status messages) is
suppressed.

**Important:** `--json-output` requires at least HawkScan Dev Release v5.3.41.

**Important:** `--json-output` cannot be used with `--trace` — the CLI will error
with exit code 1 if both are set.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add stackhawk/agent-skills/cursor/.cursor/rules/stackhawk-hawkscan-findings.mdc@sha256:f2ef31df818dcf8d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261009.d0eea86, 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.
