## About

### What it is

This kit holds notes on a library of 818 structured cybersecurity skills for AI agents, spread over 34 security domains. A skill is a set of guidance an agent can follow for one task, such as scoping a cloud breach or picking the right memory forensics plugin. The project's code lives in its own repository.

### Who it suits

It suits security analysts, defenders, researchers and students who want an AI agent to work from structured security guidance instead of general memory.

| Industry | Who uses it | How they use it | Example |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Security operations | SOC analysts | Ask the agent to help write or choose detection rules | Which Sigma rules catch Kerberoasting |
| Incident response | Responders and forensic analysts | Get guidance while investigating a compromised system | Picking a memory forensics plugin for a suspicious dump |
| Cloud security | Cloud and DevSecOps engineers | Scope an incident that touches several cloud providers | Scoping a breach across three providers |
| Fraud prevention | Fraud and risk teams | Spot cyber-enabled financial fraud patterns | Detecting business email compromise |
| Security training | Educators and students | Learn defensive and offensive methods in a lab setting | Practising phishing simulation on systems you own |

You can skip it if you have no security work, or if you only want one narrow tool rather than a broad library.

### Where to use it

The project is built for AI coding and security agents that read skills.

- Claude Code: the project lists it among its topics
- Hermes Agent: marked as compatible in the project's badges
- Other agent platforms: the project says it supports more than 26 of them

| Use case | Who | What they get back |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Memory dump triage | Forensic analyst | Guidance on which tool and plugin to run first |
| Detection engineering | SOC analyst | Pointers to rules that catch a named attack technique |
| Cloud breach scoping | Cloud security engineer | A method for working across several providers |
| Fraud detection | Risk analyst | Guidance on spotting business email compromise |

### How to set it up

You need an AI agent that can read skills and a copy of the repository on your machine.

- An AI agent that supports the open skills standard the project follows
- Git, to copy the repository

1. Clone the repository to your computer.
2. Point your agent at the cloned skills.
3. Ask your first security question and see which skill the agent picks up.

Run these in a terminal:

```sh
# Copy the project to your computer
git clone https://github.com/mukul975/anthropic-cybersecurity-skills.git
# Go into its folder
cd anthropic-cybersecurity-skills
```

### Example

Ask your agent, "Which Sigma rules would catch Kerberoasting in my logs?" With the skills loaded, it can work from the matching skill's guidance instead of guessing. What you get back depends on your agent and which skill it finds.

### For newcomers and experts

If you are new, think of a skill as a checklist your agent reads before it starts a job. Try one small thing first: copy the repository, point your agent at it, and ask a question from your own field.

If you work in security, note how the mappings are organised. A skill's mappings follow its subject. Forensics work gets ATT\&CK and NIST CSF, and AI-security work gains ATLAS and AI RMF on top. The trade-off is uneven coverage, as the chart below shows.

You clone the skills library → Your agent reads the skill it needs → The skill carries its framework mappings → The agent answers your security task

### Good to know

Read these points before you run anything.

- License: Apache-2.0
- It is an independent community project and is not affiliated with Anthropic PBC
- It includes offensive and dual-use techniques such as red-team C2, phishing simulation and exploitation
- Run those only on systems you own, or on ones where you hold written approval to test
- You are responsible for following the law and the rules of engagement
