Sets up and runs Atheris, the coverage-guided Python fuzzer built on libFuzzer. Covers TestOneInput harnesses, FuzzedDataProvider, instrumenting both pure Python and native C extensions, and running under AddressSanitizer. Use when fuzzing a Python package, hunting memory corruption in a Python C extension, or choosing between Atheris and Hypothesis for a Python target.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'atheris' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'atheris' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named atheris already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/trailofbits/skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'e4dd0bb5b15535f7c5a0834187dffba6ac37e4ff' -- 'plugins/testing-handbook-skills/skills/atheris' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'plugins/testing-handbook-skills/skills/atheris' ~/.agents/skills/'atheris' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'atheris' ~/.claude/skills/'atheris' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
