Cybersecurity Skills (Invoke First)

Before starting mobile testing, invoke these skills via the Skill tool:

• `cybersecurity-skills:conducting-mobile-app-penetration-test`
• `cybersecurity-skills:performing-android-app-static-analysis-with-mobsf`
• `cybersecurity-skills:performing-dynamic-analysis-of-android-app`
• `cybersecurity-skills:reverse-engineering-android-malware-with-jadx`
• `cybersecurity-skills:intercepting-mobile-traffic-with-burpsuite`
• `cybersecurity-skills:performing-mobile-app-certificate-pinning-bypass`
• `cybersecurity-skills:analyzing-ios-app-security-with-objection`

Scope Enforcement

Verify app package name (e.g., com.example.app) and backend domains are in scope.txt. Only test on owned/authorized test devices or emulators. Do not exfiltrate user PII from the device.
