What it does

Collecting Threat Intelligence With Misp is an agent skill from mukul975/Anthropic-Cybersecurity-Skills. Deploy MISP, configure threat feeds (MISP community, freetext, TAXII, CSV), and use the PyMISP API to programmatically fetch, add, and search events and IOCs, building automated collection pipelines that aggregate indicators from community and commercial sources. Use when gathering, storing, or correlating IOCs and threat intelligence, or when scripting MISP ingestion via PyMISP.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 10 other files, including scripts, reference files and assets (for example `assets/template.md`, `references/api-reference.md` and `references/standards.md`).

It sits in Security, covering OSINT. It works with Docker. The repository describes itself as: 817 structured cybersecurity skills for AI agents · Mapped to 6 frameworks: MITRE ATT&CK, NIST CSF 2.0, MITRE ATLAS, D3FEND, NIST AI RMF & MITRE F3 (Fight Fraud) · agentskills.io…. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Correlating IOCs and threat intelligence
  • Scripting MISP ingestion via PyMISP

Example prompts

  • “/collecting-threat-intelligence-with-misp”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • Docker
  • A credential in YOUR_API_KEY

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Deploy MISP with Docker
  2. Configure Default Feeds
  3. Add Custom Threat Feeds
  4. Programmatic Event Search and Retrieval
  5. Export IOCs for Downstream Tools

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 54a7988. 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.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git
    • docker

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • github.com
    • urlhaus.abuse.ch

    Also links to:

    • misp-project.org
    • pymisp.readthedocs.io
    • circl.lu

    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

Collecting Threat Intelligence With Misp loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs, and up to ~3.8k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 106 tokens; SKILL.md has 400 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~106
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.6k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~3.8k

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: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:76
    cp template.env .env
  • NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:77
    # Edit .env to set MISP_BASEURL, MISP_ADMIN_EMAIL, MISP_ADMIN_PASSPHRASE

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.

Collecting Threat Intelligence with MISP

Overview

MISP (Malware Information Sharing Platform) is an open-source threat intelligence platform for gathering, sharing, storing, and correlating Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) of targeted attacks, threat intelligence, financial fraud information, vulnerability information, or counter-terrorism information. This skill covers deploying MISP, configuring threat feeds, using the PyMISP API for programmatic access, and building automated collection pipelines that aggregate IOCs from multiple community and commercial sources.

When to Use

  • When managing security operations that require collecting threat intelligence with misp
  • When improving security program maturity and operational processes
  • When establishing standardized procedures for security team workflows
  • When integrating threat intelligence or vulnerability data into operations

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.9+ with pymisp library installed
  • Docker and Docker Compose for MISP deployment
  • Understanding of STIX 2.1 and TAXII 2.1 protocols
  • Familiarity with IOC types: hashes, IP addresses, domains, URLs, email addresses
  • Network access to MISP community feeds (circl.lu, botvrij.eu)

Key Concepts

MISP Architecture

MISP operates on an event-based model where threat intelligence is organized into events containing attributes (IOCs), objects (structured groupings of attributes), galaxies (threat actor/malware clusters linked to MITRE ATT&CK), and tags for classification. Synchronization between MISP instances uses a pull/push model over HTTPS with API key authentication.

Feed Types
  • MISP Feeds: Native JSON/CSV feeds from MISP community (CIRCL OSINT, botvrij.eu)
  • Freetext Feeds: Unstructured text feeds parsed for IOCs (abuse.ch, Feodo Tracker)
  • TAXII Feeds: STIX/TAXII 2.1 compatible feeds from commercial and government sources
  • CSV Feeds: Structured CSV feeds with configurable column mapping

PyMISP API

PyMISP is the official Python library to access MISP platforms via their REST API. It supports fetching events, adding/updating events and attributes, uploading samples, and searching across the entire MISP dataset. Authentication uses an API key passed in the Authorization header.

Workflow

Step 1: Deploy MISP with Docker
bash
git clone https://github.com/MISP/misp-docker.git
cd misp-docker
cp template.env .env
# Edit .env to set MISP_BASEURL, MISP_ADMIN_EMAIL, MISP_ADMIN_PASSPHRASE
docker compose up -d
Step 2: Configure Default Feeds

Enable built-in MISP feeds via the web UI or API:

python
from pymisp import PyMISP

misp = PyMISP('https://misp.local', 'YOUR_API_KEY', ssl=False)

# List available feeds
feeds = misp.feeds()
for feed in feeds:
    print(f"{feed['Feed']['id']}: {feed['Feed']['name']} - Enabled: {feed['Feed']['enabled']}")

# Enable CIRCL OSINT Feed
misp.enable_feed(feed_id=1)
misp.cache_feed(feed_id=1)
misp.fetch_feed(feed_id=1)
Step 3: Add Custom Threat Feeds
python
# Add abuse.ch URLhaus feed
feed_data = {
    'name': 'URLhaus Recent URLs',
    'provider': 'abuse.ch',
    'url': 'https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/downloads/csv_recent/',
    'source_format': 'csv',
    'input_source': 'network',
    'publish': False,
    'enabled': True,
    'headers': '',
    'distribution': 0,
    'sharing_group_id': 0,
    'tag_id': 0,
    'default': False,
    'lookup_visible': True
}
result = misp.add_feed(feed_data)
print(f"Feed added: {result}")
Step 4: Programmatic Event Search and Retrieval
python
from pymisp import PyMISP, MISPEvent
from datetime import datetime, timedelta

misp = PyMISP('https://misp.local', 'YOUR_API_KEY', ssl=False)

# Search for events from the last 7 days
result = misp.search(
    controller='events',
    date_from=(datetime.now() - timedelta(days=7)).strftime('%Y-%m-%d'),
    type_attribute='ip-dst',
    to_ids=True,
    pythonify=True
)

for event in result:
    print(f"Event {event.id}: {event.info}")
    for attr in event.attributes:
        if attr.type == 'ip-dst' and attr.to_ids:
            print(f"  IOC: {attr.value} (category: {attr.category})")
Step 5: Export IOCs for Downstream Tools
python
# Export as STIX 2.1 bundle
stix_output = misp.search(
    controller='events',
    return_format='stix2',
    tags=['tlp:white'],
    published=True
)

# Export IDS-flagged attributes as Suricata rules
suricata_rules = misp.search(
    controller='attributes',
    return_format='suricata',
    to_ids=True,
    type_attribute=['ip-dst', 'domain', 'url']
)

# Export as CSV for SIEM ingestion
csv_output = misp.search(
    controller='attributes',
    return_format='csv',
    type_attribute='ip-dst',
    to_ids=True
)

Validation Criteria

  • MISP instance is deployed and accessible via HTTPS
  • At least 3 community feeds are enabled and fetching data successfully
  • PyMISP script can authenticate, search events, and retrieve IOCs
  • Events contain properly tagged and categorized attributes
  • Export to STIX 2.1 produces valid STIX bundles
  • Automated feed fetch runs on schedule (cron or MISP scheduler)
