IMHO these type of projects are not tools per-se but methodologies. I think this is a better framing since that's exactly what they are - a bunch of markdown files that describe in general terms how to perform an assessment aligned to some principles.
Btw, these type of methodologies are used all the time. Practically every security consultancy has them so adding them to an LLM makes a lot of sense.
All these security/vulnerability scanning harnesses look more or less the same. Not sure what’s the point of bragging or publishing about them anymore, there’s no moat
Eh, Capital One has long been surprisingly progressive on open source and whatnot. They were one of the first to properly adopt OAuth to connect accounts, too, back when Plaid/Mint/etc. were mostly proxying logins.
Sorry to say, tokens aren’t going anywhere, people aren’t going to suddenly stop using AI, and this whole paradigm shift of how people are changing how they work - is a full blown reality.
There is no reversal, no “eh we don’t think the tokens/AI are worth it”. Accept the new reality.
Wasn't Capital One founded on the premise of massive-scale market and product experimentation? Makes sense that they would design tools that match that approach.

Has anyone actually had success with this? I applied for my company several weeks ago, and never heard back.

An end product to justify the Billions spent on AI
Also so that the engineers have something for the resume that looks and sounds impressive.
They don't know that Dario told me Fable is going to hack the planet.
They're desperate for the hype.

If there is a pentester here who uses mitmproxy, the security skills below (distilled from 4000 h1 disclosures) might help -https://github.com/instavm/security-skills
this is just a side project though for me
Why does this feel like an exec trying to justify token spend?
They dont need to justify it.

Seems to be very random. I've heard stories like yours, as well as companies who applied and are approved same day.
This is a sad. Makes me want to move my bank accounts.

Put a wrapper around nessus, stave off a "below strong" rating another six months
I know a few companies that did this about 20 years back (cough Comodo). Charge customers for a free Nessus report that's been rebranded. Profit.
