# SKILL: Recon and Methodology — Expert Bug Bounty Playbook

> **AI LOAD INSTRUCTION**: Systematic recon and bug-finding methodology from top bug hunters. Covers subdomain enumeration, endpoint discovery, tech fingerprinting, and the hunter's mental model for finding bugs that others miss. Key insight: most high-severity bugs are found through systematic coverage, not just clever payloads.
