trailofbits/skills
Trail of Bits maintains a Claude Code plugin marketplace of "skills" that extend AI coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, ChatGPT workspaces) with security analysis, testing, and secure development capabilities. It's installed via `/plugin marketplace add trailofbits/skills` and is also compatible with Codex's Claude marketplace support, with related sibling repos for curated skills, devcontainers, and config.
What it is
trailofbits/skills is a plugin marketplace from Trail of Bits for AI-assisted security analysis, testing and development. The same repository installs into Claude Code, Codex and ChatGPT workspaces. It is licensed CC BY-SA 4.0. The README lists related repos: claude-code-config, codex-config, skills-curated, trailmark, calcifier and coop. The page does not list the individual plugins, so check the marketplace browser for what is in it.
What to do
Claude Code:
/plugin marketplace add trailofbits/skillsCodex reads Claude plugin marketplaces directly, so the repo carries no Codex-specific metadata:
codex plugin marketplace add trailofbits/skills
codex plugin list
codex plugin add <plugin-name>@trailofbitsChatGPT workspace: import the repo's .claude-plugin/marketplace.json. Any skill that includes agents/openai.yaml must also set interface.display_name and interface.short_description in that file, because plugin metadata does not supply them. If an import fails, publish a metadata fix and re-sync the repository in the workspace marketplace.
Local testing or development: go to the parent directory of the clone and add it by path. The README gives this command with /plugins in the plural, unlike the /plugin used above.
cd /path/to/parent # e.g., if repo is at ~/projects/skills, be in ~/projects
/plugins marketplace add ./skillsContributing: AGENTS.md has the skill authoring guidelines. Run make check before pushing. It runs most of CI locally, and AGENTS.md says what it leaves out. Codex gives advisory reviews on eligible PRs from the repo itself. Maintainers can comment @codex review for a fast review or apply the deep-review label for a deeper one. Fork PRs are excluded.
Caveats
The README does not say which skills exist, what they cover or how well they work. Bugs found with the skills can be reported with the line "Found using Trail of Bits Skills".
