What it does

Threat Intel Triage is an agent skill from ahmadvh/octochains. Identifies indicators of compromise, anomalous network/endpoint behavior, and active intrusion patterns from the provided data.

Its SKILL.md is about 320 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: A lightweight Python framework for parallel, isolated, collaborative AI reasoning.

Example prompts

  • “Use the threat-intel-triage skill to identify indicators of compromise, anomalous network/endpoint behavior, and active intrusion patterns from the…”
  • “/threat-intel-triage”

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Threat Detection: Identify unusual activity that may indicate a security attack, such as unusual outbound traffic, privilege escalation…
  2. Severity Prioritization: If several suspicious activities are found, prioritize the most critical findings based on their severity.
  3. Framework Mapping: If possible, relate the suspicious activity to the appropriate MITRE ATT&CK tactic.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3512a57. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Threat Intel Triage loads about 315 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 37 tokens; SKILL.md has 131 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~37
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~315

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 131 words (~315 tokens).

“Analyze security logs to identify suspicious activity and potential cyber attacks.”
