Ransomware First Response is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Handle the first hour of a suspected ransomware or malware infection calmly and correctly — contain it, preserve options, and avoid the moves that make it worse. Use when asked what to do about ransomware, my files are encrypted with a ransom note, I think I have malware, or my computer's been hacked. Produces an immediate containment checklist, a preserve-evidence-and-options step, a recovery path (backups, known decryptors, professional help), guidance on the ransom-payment decision, and reporting steps — for…
Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k 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 Backup and disaster recovery and Incident response. The repository describes itself as: 1255 professional Agent Skills for Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor & Codex — PRDs, postmortems, leases, medical bills, layoffs, go-bags, new countries. Plain markdown, MIT, in… The licence is MIT.
6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1cbf1f0. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
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.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Ransomware First Response loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 155 tokens; SKILL.md has 600 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
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.

.claude/skills/ransomware-first-response/SKILL.md (or your agent's skills folder).The first hour decides how bad a ransomware or malware incident gets. Panic leads to the wrong moves — paying immediately, wiping evidence, or reconnecting an infected machine and spreading it. This gives a calm, correct sequence: isolate, preserve your options, and recover from the safest source — while being honest that a serious business incident needs professional responders.
Ask for these if not provided:
Now (first minutes)
Recover: wipe + restore from a clean offline backup → or check for a legitimate free decryptor → or engage a professional. Payment: last resort, high risk — [tradeoffs]; get advice first. Report: [relevant authority/agency] · [breach-notification duties if applicable].
This is first-response guidance for a personal/small setup. A business incident, or anything with sensitive/regulated data, needs professional incident responders — engage them early.
