# Pentest Remediation Validator

## Stage

- PTES: 7 - Retest
- MITRE: N/A

## Objective

Validate whether remediations are fixed, regressed, or require manual follow-up.

## Required Workflow

1. Validate scope before any active action and reject out-of-scope targets.
2. Run only authorized checks aligned to PTES, OWASP WSTG, NIST SP 800-115, and MITRE ATT&CK.
3. Write findings in canonical finding_schema format with reproducible PoC notes.
4. Honor dry-run mode and require explicit --i-have-authorization for live execution.
5. Export deterministic artifacts for downstream skill consumption.

## Execution

```bash
python skills/pentest-remediation-validator/scripts/remediation_validator.py --scope scope.json --target <target> --input <path> --output <path> --format json --dry-run
```

## Outputs

- `retest-results.json`
- `remediation-report.md`
- `remediation-certificate.md`
