## What it is
A curated pack of Markdown skill files documenting reconnaissance and penetration-testing procedures for web apps, APIs, authentication, cloud, and infrastructure. It serves as a reference playbook collection for authorized security testing and bug bounty work rather than an executable tool.

## Use cases
- learn web application penetration testing methodology
- find subdomain takeover and SSRF testing playbooks
- structure a bug bounty recon workflow
- reference OAuth and JWT attack techniques
- plan an external attack-surface assessment
- validate CORS, XSS, and SQLi vulnerabilities during engagements

## When to choose
- you need field-tested step-by-step pentest and recon procedures
- you run authorized bug bounty or red team engagements and want a methodology reference
- you want documented prerequisites, pitfalls, and verification criteria per technique

## When to avoid
- you expect runnable scanning or exploitation tooling - this is documentation, not a scanner
- you lack authorization to test the target systems
- you need automated continuous security monitoring

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: penetration-testing, security, osint, vulnerability-scanning, developer-tools
- domain: security, penetration-testing, osint, developer-tools
- platform: cli, python
