Add Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) steps to existing Harness pipelines using Harness STO scanners. Supports API DAST / Traceable (default), Burp Suite Enterprise, ZAP (OWASP), Nikto, and Nmap. Scans running application instances for vulnerabilities including API security issues, injection flaws, misconfigurations, and exposed services. Can insert the scan step into an existing CI or SecurityTests stage or create a dedicated SecurityTests stage. Use when asked to add DAST scanning…
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
# Configure DAST Scan Add a Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) step to an existing Harness pipeline using Harness STO scanners. DAST scanners test running application instances for security vulnerabilities at runtime. ## Instructions ### Step 1: Establish Scope and Pipeline Context Ask for org, project, and pipeline identifier if not already known. This skill only works with existing pipelines. ``` Call MCP tool: harness_get Parameters: resource_type: "pipeline" resource_id: "<pipeline_identifier>" org_id: "<organization>" project_id: "<project>" ``` ### Step 2: Analyze Pipeline Structure Parse the pipeline YAML to identify: - All stages and their types (`CI`, `SecurityTests`, `Deployment`, `Approval`) - Whether a `SecurityTests` stage already exists - Existing steps in each stage Present the structure to the user: ``` Pipeline: <name> Stage 1: <stage_name> (type: <stage_type>) - Step 1: <step_name> (type: <step_type>) ... ``` **Ask the user where they want the DAST scanner step added:** Present the available insertion points: - Any existing `SecurityTests` stage (scanner step is added into that stage's `execution.steps`) …

How to install
mdr add harness/harness-skills/configure-dast-scan@sha256:2de5ec2306a7067eThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
