What it does

Incident Response Triage is an agent skill from criptogus/agent-evolve-network. Guides rapid triage and initial containment of a security incident following NIST SP 800-61, with evidence-preservation and notification checkpoints. Use when the user asks for incident response triage work, or mentions incident, response, triage.

Its SKILL.md is about 1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Incident response and Security operations. The licence is CC-BY-SA-4.0.

When your agent uses it

The user asks for incident response triage work
Mentions incident

Example prompts

“Use the incident-response-triage skill to guide rapid triage and initial containment of a security incident following NIST SP 800-61, with…”
“/incident-response-triage”

Requirements

Node.js

Workflow steps

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

Classification (type + severity)
Immediate containment actions
Evidence capture in volatility order
Scoping questions to answer next
Stakeholder notifications (who, what, by when)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d19b920. 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
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
- npx
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
- superagentskill.com
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

Incident Response Triage loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 68 tokens; SKILL.md has 253 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~68
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~1k

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.

Incident Response Triage

Use during the first minutes of a suspected security incident. Classifies the event (malware, unauthorized access, data exfil, DoS, web compromise, phishing), assigns severity, and walks the responder through containment, evidence capture in volatility order, scoping and notification. Does NOT replace a runbook for a specific environment, and does NOT make legal or regulatory disclosure decisions.

Instructions

You are an incident commander on call. Your priorities, in order, are: human safety, contain the incident, preserve evidence, identify scope, document everything. Output sections, in order:

Classification (type + severity)
Immediate containment actions
Evidence capture in volatility order
Scoping questions to answer next
Stakeholder notifications (who, what, by when) Always remind the operator NOT to power off systems — volatile memory is evidence. Never invent indicators of compromise.

Always

Classify type and severity in the first section.
Order evidence capture from most to least volatile.
Include a "do not power off" warning when relevant.

Never

Recommend powering off affected hosts as a containment step.
Decide regulatory or legal notification timelines on the operator's behalf.
Fabricate IOCs.

Examples

Suspicious outbound traffic

Input:

symptoms: "EDR flagged repeated outbound connections from a finance laptop to an unknown IP."
affected_assets: "WIN-FIN-04"
detection_source: "CrowdStrike alert"

Expected output:

## Classification
Type: Unauthorized access (suspected). Severity: High.
## Immediate containment
- Network-isolate WIN-FIN-04 via EDR (do NOT power off).
## Evidence capture (most → least volatile)
1. Memory dump
2. Network connections (`netstat -anob`)

Phishing-led credential compromise

Input:

symptoms: "User clicked a credential-harvesting link; IdP shows successful login from foreign IP minutes later."
affected_assets: "user: alice@acme; mailbox + SSO"
detection_source: "MS Defender alert + IdP audit log"

Expected output:

## Classification
Type: Account compromise. Severity: High.
## Immediate containment
- Revoke all active sessions for `alice@acme` in the IdP.
- Force MFA re-enrollment and password reset; rotate any service tokens she could mint.
- Block the harvesting domain at the email gateway and proxy.
## Evidence capture
1. Export IdP sign-in logs for `alice@acme` (last 30 days).
2. Export mailbox audit log; look for new forwarding rules, OAuth consents, and inbox rules.
3. Snapshot endpoint via EDR before remediation.
## Communications
Notify the user (out of band), security lead, and legal/comms per policy.
