About this skill

What it does. Explains how to write quoted entries with comments and escaped bytes, extract tokens from headers, binaries and specifications, and pass dictionaries to libFuzzer, AFL++ or cargo-fuzz. It covers AFL++ auto-dictionaries, go-fuzz corpus seeding, combining files and troubleshooting format or coverage issues.

When to use it. Use for parsers, protocols and file formats when validation or fixed-string checks stall coverage. Skip it for pure algorithms, targets without keyword-based parsing, or corpora that already achieve high coverage.
