What this skill does
SKILL: GraphQL and Hidden Parameters — Introspection, Batching, and Undocumented Fields AI LOAD INSTRUCTION: Use this skill when GraphQL exists or when REST documentation suggests optional, deprecated, or undocumented fields. Focus on schema discovery, hidden parameter abuse, and batching as a force multiplier. 1. GRAPHQL FIRST PASS If introspection is restricted, continue with: field suggestions and error-based discovery known type probes like type(name: "User") JS and mobile bundle route extraction 2. HIGH-VALUE GRAPHQL TESTS Theme Example --- --- IDOR user(id: "victim") batching array of login or object fetch operations hidden fields admin-only fields exposed in type definitions nested authz gaps related object fields with weaker checks 3. HIDDEN PARAMETER DISCOVERY Look for: fields present in admin docs but not public docs additionalProperties or permissive schemas frontend code using richer request bodies than visible UI controls mobile endpoints carrying role, org, feature-flag, or internal filter fields 4. NEXT ROUTING If hidden fields affect privilege: api authorization and bola If GraphQL batching changes auth or rate behavior: api auth and jwt abuse If endpoint discovery is incomplete: api recon and docs
