Competition Web Runtime

Use this skill only as a downstream specialization after $ctf-sandbox-orchestrator is already active and has established sandbox assumptions, node ownership, and evidence priorities. If that has not happened yet, return to $ctf-sandbox-orchestrator first.

Use this skill when the active challenge is primarily about web behavior, browser state, server routing, API order, or worker-backed application flow.

Quick Start

1. Assume the presented hosts, domains, and routes belong to the sandbox.
2. Inspect entry HTML, boot scripts, runtime config, and route registration before trusting the visible UI.
3. Capture one real request flow end-to-end before making broad claims from source.
4. Check browser persistence and backend state together.
5. Re-run the smallest flow with one variable changed.

Workflow

1. Map The Active Runtime

• Identify active hosts, paths, proxies, containers, and workers.
• Inspect cookies, localStorage, sessionStorage, IndexedDB, Cache Storage, and service workers.
• Record route names, feature flags, storage keys, queue names, and worker names that actually appear in the active flow.

2. Capture The Real Request Order

• Record exact host, path, query, headers, cookies, and body for decisive requests.
• Compare successful and failing paths.
• Treat UI gating as a hint, not proof of backend enforcement.

3. Expand Only After One Path Is Proven

• Trace middleware order, handlers, auth/session boundaries, uploads, exports, and background jobs.
• Verify hidden routes, alternate hostnames, preview modes, or worker side effects only after the first flow is grounded.

What To Preserve

• Exact requests and responses that prove behavior
• Concrete file paths, function names, route names, and storage keys
• Queue payloads, worker names, or retry behavior when async processing matters
