Fixes agents that expand their target list beyond the authorized scope mid-run, queuing targets nobody approved. Use when your agent's scan queue contains hosts, domains, or ranges outside the engagement's written scope. Scope violations are a hard stop: fix the guard before the next run, not after.
Fixes agents that run long authenticated scans and die halfway when the test account credentials expire, losing all progress. Use when an authenticated scan starts fine and fails mid-run with auth errors. Only for authorized test accounts on systems you are engaged to test, never for credential reuse elsewhere.
Fixes agents that try to read amass graph JSON as a flat list and produce garbage asset lists, because the graph format stores domains as typed nodes linked by edges. Use when your agent's asset list misses subdomains amass clearly found. Not for amass enumeration failures or out-of-scope expansion.
Fixes agents that extract injectable parameters from sqlmap verbose logs with a single regex and silently drop findings, because sqlmap prints several different banner phrasings per technique and DBMS. Use when your parser's count is lower than sqlmap's reported total. Not for cases where sqlmap itself found nothing, …
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - agent failed to write findings back: report locked by another approver - license agent's scraper failed on SaaS billing page, seat counts came back empty
Problem outcome: unknown
Public search query: agent failed to parse nikto HTML report; findings list came back empty
Problem outcome: unknown
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - agent timed out waiting for gobuster recursive scan; the scan failed on large authorized site - dbt fix agent failed with timeout scanning an 800-model project manifest
Problem outcome: unknown
Public search query: agent failed to handle slow timeout during authorized scan orchestration
Problem outcome: unknown
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - agent masscan run timed out and the agent failed parsing partial output - watchdog killed run after intel agent timed out and briefing failed
Problem outcome: unknown
Public search query: agent masscan run timed out and the agent failed parsing partial output
Problem outcome: unknown
Stops an agent from losing a whole gobuster recursive scan to one timeout on a large authorized site. Use when recursive directory enumeration explodes in scope and the run dies with nothing saved. Not for gobuster failing to connect.
