FAQPage Schema
How do I generate Claude Code skills from the Trail of Bits Testing Handbook?

You can generate Claude Code skills by running the generator workflow, which analyzes Testing Handbook sections and produces skill definitions for security testing tools and techniques using a two-pass generation approach with cross-reference population.

Can I bulk generate security testing skills from the entire handbook at once?

Yes, bulk generation is supported. The generator applies a two-pass approach to process multiple handbook sections simultaneously, producing skill definitions for tools, techniques, and domains while maintaining alignment with the handbook structure.

How do I refresh generated skills when the Testing Handbook content evolves?

You can refresh skills by re-running the generation pipeline against the updated Testing Handbook repository. The workflow analyzes changes and regenerates skill definitions to maintain alignment with the latest handbook content and cross-references.

Do I need to clone the Testing Handbook repository before generating skills?

Yes, you need access to the Testing Handbook repository. The generator requires handbook content as input and uses templates for tool, technique, and domain skill types to produce Claude Code skill definitions under the skills directory.

What is the two-pass generation approach for creating skill definitions?

The two-pass generation approach first creates initial skill definitions from handbook sections, then populates cross-references between them. This ensures generated security testing skills maintain structural alignment with the handbook's tool and technique mapping.

What types of Claude Code skills can be generated from the security testing handbook?

The generator produces three skill types from the handbook: tool skills, technique skills, and domain skills. Each type uses specific templates to ensure the generated definitions match the handbook's security testing structure and content.
