What it does

Trace AI Context Capabilities is an agent skill from cyberful/cyberful. Reconstruct how instructions, retrieved content, memory, identities, approvals, tool schemas, arguments, outputs, delegation, and fallbacks propagate through an AI system. Use for offline causal analysis of agent traces and context boundaries before testing prompt injection or tool authorization.

Its SKILL.md is about 520 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 13 other files, including scripts, reference files and assets (for example `agents/openai.yaml`, `assets/context-capability-ledger.example.json` and `assets/context-capability-ledger.schema.json`).

It sits in Security, covering Prompt injection and agent security. The repository describes itself as: Cyberful is an open-source AI Red Team for discovering, exploiting, verifying, and remediating vulnerabilities. The licence is AGPL-3.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Offline causal analysis of agent traces and context boundaries before testing prompt injection
  • Tool authorization

Example prompts

  • “/trace-ai-context-capabilities”

Requirements

  • Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ec598a6. 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

    Ships 2 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    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

Trace AI Context Capabilities loads about 517 tokens when it runs, and up to ~672 if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 82 tokens; SKILL.md has 125 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~82
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~517
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~672

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Trace AI Context and Capabilities

Reconstruct what influenced each consequential action and which deterministic mediator authorized it. Do not infer causality from temporal proximity alone.

Build the event graph

Normalize instruction sources, retrieval items, memory reads/writes, model calls, tool discovery, tool requests, canonical arguments, approval decisions, identity/tenant context, tool results, delegations, fallbacks, and output consumers. Read references/context-capability-graph.md for edge semantics.

Stage scripts/trace_context_capabilities.py, its manifest, and the ledger example when event volume makes manual tracing unreliable. The analyzer is offline, rejects duplicate/self/cyclic relationships, and preserves unknown parents as typed evidence gaps rather than inventing causality.

Deliver

Identify untrusted-to-privileged paths, missing mediation, identity changes, approval/action mismatches, shared context across tenants, stale memory, fallback divergence, and evidence gaps. Route influence tests to test-ai-prompt-injection and host-enforcement tests to test-ai-tool-authorization.
