API Endpoint Discovery
Skill Name: api-endpoint-discovery
Version: 1.0.0
Category: Security / API / OSINT
Price: Lifetime: $39 / Optional Monthly: $7/mo (includes all Pro features permanently)
Author: EdgeIQ Labs
OpenClaw Compatible: Yes — Python 3, pure stdlib, WSL + Linux
What It Does
Discovers API endpoints for a target domain using passive OSINT (Swagger docs, OpenAPI specs, robots.txt, JavaScript scraping, favicon analysis) and active techniques (path brute-forcing, parameter enumeration). Maps the exposed attack surface of a web application's API layer.
⚠️ Legal Notice: Only audit domains you own or have explicit written authorization to scan. Active brute-forcing should only be used on authorized targets.
Features
- Swagger/OpenAPI discovery — locates and parses live API specification files
- robots.txt analysis — extracts API-related paths from robots exclusion
- JavaScript endpoint extraction — scrapes fetch/axios/XMLHttpRequest calls from JS files
- Favicon/asset fingerprinting — extracts API hints from CDN-hosted assets
- Path brute-forcing — common API path patterns with wordlist
- Parameter enumeration — discovers API query parameter names
- API version detection — identifies API version strings in responses
- JSON export — structured endpoint inventory
