Verify Finding
Use this task skill when the user asks to verify VSCOUT-*, asks whether a finding is exploitable, or asks to confirm a specific finding.
Workflow
- Locate the finding by ID, stable key, or
file:linein.claude/findings.json. - Run
/vuln-scout:traceon the source-to-sink path. - Run
/vuln-scout:verifyfor CPG-backed confirmation. - Call
false-positive-verifierwhen controls, sanitizers, or reachability are unclear. - Call
local-testeronly when dynamic validation is explicitly safe and useful. - Run
/vuln-scout:propagatewhen a confirmed pattern may repeat. - Update
.claude/review-ledger.jsonwith the final verification state.
Produces
- Updated
.claude/review-ledger.jsonentry - optional trace artifact
When NOT To Trigger
Do not trigger for broad scans, PR review, generic exploitability education, dangerous-function lists, or CPG query syntax questions that do not name a finding.
