What it does

Cyber Exercise Adjudication is an agent skill from HoangNguyen0403/agent-skills-standard. Adjudicates authorized exercise outcomes against independently held ground truth, redacted evidence, and explicit status boundaries. Use when comparing observations, resolving discrepancies, or preparing evidence-led security-review handoffs.

Its SKILL.md is about 570 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including reference files (for example `evals/evals.json` and `references/adjudication-record.md`).

It sits in Security, covering Security review. The repository describes itself as: A collection of Agent Skills Standard and Best Practice for Programming Languages, Frameworks that help our AI Agent follow best practies on frameworks and programming laguages. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Comparing observations
  • Resolving discrepancies
  • Preparing evidence-led security-review handoffs

Example prompts

  • “Use the cyber-exercise-adjudication skill to adjudicate authorized exercise outcomes against independently held ground truth, redacted evidence, and…”
  • “/cyber-exercise-adjudication”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Confirm adjudicator independence from operator and evidence collector.
  2. Load approved objective, scope, expected observation, and ground-truth version.
  3. Compare redacted evidence by time, source, and limitation; record discrepancies.
  4. Assign confirmed, suspected, blocked, not-tested, or false-positive only with rationale.
  5. Preserve unresolved conflicts and route them to an accountable owner.
  6. Emit sanitized findings to artifacts/security-review.md when that artifact is in scope.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b529c2d. 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

Cyber Exercise Adjudication loads about 570 tokens when it runs, and up to ~734 if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 68 tokens; SKILL.md has 181 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
~570
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~734

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.

Cyber Exercise Adjudication

Priority: P0 (CRITICAL)

Compare evidence to pre-held expectations without self-approved promotion or compliance claims.

Structure

text
cyber-exercise-adjudication/
├── SKILL.md
├── references/adjudication-record.md
└── evals/evals.json

Workflow

  1. Confirm adjudicator independence from operator and evidence collector.
  2. Load approved objective, scope, expected observation, and ground-truth version.
  3. Compare redacted evidence by time, source, and limitation; record discrepancies.
  4. Assign confirmed, suspected, blocked, not-tested, or false-positive only with rationale.
  5. Preserve unresolved conflicts and route them to an accountable owner.
  6. Emit sanitized findings to artifacts/security-review.md when that artifact is in scope.

Rules

  • Independent ground truth is held before observation review; do not rewrite it to fit results.
  • A blocked runtime or missing evidence remains blocked, not passed.
  • Adjudication describes exercise evidence; it does not certify compliance or measure real-world efficacy.
  • Production changes, credential use, and live target interaction remain separately gated. Adjudication records carry engagement_scope_ref, skill_version, source, observed_at, finding_status, evidence_refs, limitations, and accountable_owner.

Anti-Patterns

  • No operator grading: Separate execution from adjudication.
  • No pass by silence: Missing observation is not success.
  • No certainty inflation: Keep suspected and not-tested statuses.
  • No raw leakage: Redact before handoff.
