Works best when you want a reusable capability, not another fragile one-off prompt.
At a glance
Tools required
oss-fuzz-gen, compiler toolchain, fuzzing runtime
Install & setup
Clone or install the project dependencies described upstream, run the harness generation flow against a supported codebase, then build and test the generated fuzz targets.

Quick brief
Use this skill when an agent needs to bootstrap fuzz targets for a project that would otherwise require manual harness authoring. It is a fit for security-focused engineering work where broader fuzz coverage matters more than starting from scratch by hand.
How it works
What this skill actually does
Invoke it instead of using oss-fuzz-gen as a raw project when the operator task is to generate candidate fuzz harnesses, evaluate whether they compile and exercise useful code paths, and iterate toward targets worth keeping.
This stays skill-shaped because the scope is the harness-generation workflow, not OSS-Fuzz as a platform overall.
