What it does
Scanning Network With Nmap Advanced is an agent skill from mukul975/Anthropic-Cybersecurity-Skills. Performs advanced network recon using Nmap's Scripting Engine (NSE), timing controls, firewall/IDS evasion, and structured output parsing to discover hosts, enumerate service versions, detect vulnerabilities, and fingerprint OSes. Use during authorized penetration tests or enterprise asset-discovery assessments needing scan evasion, NSE vulnerability checks, or output fed into a vulnerability management pipeline.
Its SKILL.md is about 2.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `references/api-reference.md` and `scripts/agent.py`).
It sits in Security, covering Penetration testing, Vulnerability scanning and Structured output and tool calling. It works with Nmap. 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.

Workflow steps
6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
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 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
mysql
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
Scanning Network With Nmap Advanced loads about 2.3k tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.8k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 113 tokens; SKILL.md has 621 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.
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.

Scanning Network with Nmap Advanced Techniques
When to Use
- Performing comprehensive asset discovery across large enterprise networks during authorized assessments
- Enumerating service versions and configurations to identify outdated or vulnerable software
- Bypassing firewall rules and IDS during authorized penetration tests using scan evasion techniques
- Scripting automated vulnerability checks using the Nmap Scripting Engine (NSE)
- Generating structured scan output for integration into vulnerability management pipelines
Do not use against networks without explicit written authorization, on production systems during peak hours without approval, or to perform denial-of-service through aggressive scan timing.
Prerequisites
- Nmap 7.90+ installed (
nmap --versionto verify) - Root/sudo privileges for SYN scans, OS detection, and raw packet techniques
- Written authorization specifying in-scope IP ranges and any excluded hosts
- Network access to target ranges (VPN, direct connection, or jump host)
- Familiarity with TCP/IP protocols and common port assignments
Workflow
Step 1: Host Discovery with Multiple Probes
Use layered discovery to find live hosts even when ICMP is blocked:
# ARP discovery for local subnet (most reliable on LAN)
nmap -sn -PR 192.168.1.0/24 -oA discovery_arp
# Combined ICMP + TCP + UDP probes for remote networks
nmap -sn -PE -PP -PS21,22,25,80,443,445,3389,8080 -PU53,161,500 10.0.0.0/16 -oA discovery_combined
# List scan to resolve DNS names without sending packets to targets
nmap -sL 10.0.0.0/24 -oN dns_resolution.txtConsolidate results into a live hosts file:
grep "Host:" discovery_combined.gnmap | awk '{print $2}' | sort -t. -k1,1n -k2,2n -k3,3n -k4,4n > live_hosts.txtStep 2: Port Scanning with Timing and Performance Tuning
# Full TCP SYN scan with optimized timing
nmap -sS -p- --min-rate 5000 --max-retries 2 -T4 -iL live_hosts.txt -oA full_tcp_scan
# Top 1000 UDP ports with version detection
nmap -sU --top-ports 1000 --version-intensity 0 -T4 -iL live_hosts.txt -oA udp_scan
# Specific port ranges for targeted assessment
nmap -sS -p 1-1024,3306,5432,6379,8080-8090,9200,27017 -iL live_hosts.txt -oA targeted_portsStep 3: Service Version Detection and OS Fingerprinting
# Aggressive service detection with version intensity
nmap -sV --version-intensity 5 -sC -O --osscan-guess -p <open_ports> -iL live_hosts.txt -oA service_enum
# Specific service probing for ambiguous ports
nmap -sV --version-all -p 8443 --script ssl-cert,http-title,http-server-header <target> -oN service_detail.txtStep 4: NSE Vulnerability Scanning
# Run vulnerability detection scripts
nmap --script vuln -p <open_ports> -iL live_hosts.txt -oA vuln_scan
# Target specific vulnerabilities
nmap --script smb-vuln-ms17-010,smb-vuln-ms08-067 -p 445 -iL live_hosts.txt -oA smb_vulns
nmap --script ssl-heartbleed,ssl-poodle,ssl-ccs-injection -p 443,8443 -iL live_hosts.txt -oA ssl_vulns
# Brute force default credentials on discovered services
nmap --script http-default-accounts,ftp-anon,ssh-auth-methods -p 21,22,80,8080 -iL live_hosts.txt -oA default_credsStep 5: Firewall Evasion Techniques
# Fragment packets to evade simple packet inspection
nmap -sS -f --mtu 24 -p 80,443 <target> -oN fragmented_scan.txt
# Use decoy addresses to obscure scan origin
nmap -sS -D RND:10 -p 80,443 <target> -oN decoy_scan.txt
# Spoof source port as DNS (53) to bypass poorly configured firewalls
nmap -sS --source-port 53 -p 1-1024 <target> -oN spoofed_port_scan.txt
# Idle scan using a zombie host (completely stealthy)
nmap -sI <zombie_host> -p 80,443,445 <target> -oN idle_scan.txt
# Slow scan to evade IDS rate-based detection
nmap -sS -T1 --max-rate 10 -p 1-1024 <target> -oA stealth_scanStep 6: Output Parsing and Reporting
# Convert XML output to HTML report
xsltproc full_tcp_scan.xml -o scan_report.html
# Extract open ports per host from grepable output
grep "Ports:" full_tcp_scan.gnmap | awk -F'Ports: ' '{print $1 $2}' > open_ports_summary.txt
# Parse XML with nmap-parse-output for structured data
nmap-parse-output full_tcp_scan.xml hosts-to-port 445
# Import into Metasploit database
msfconsole -q -x "db_import full_tcp_scan.xml; hosts; services; exit"
# Generate CSV for vulnerability management tools
nmap-parse-output full_tcp_scan.xml csv > scan_results.csvKey Concepts
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| SYN Scan (-sS) | Half-open TCP scan that sends SYN packets and analyzes responses without completing the three-way handshake, making it faster and stealthier than connect scans |
| NSE (Nmap Scripting Engine) | Lua-based scripting framework built into Nmap that enables vulnerability detection, brute forcing, service discovery, and custom automation |
| Timing Templates (-T0 to -T5) | Predefined scan speed profiles ranging from Paranoid (T0) to Insane (T5), controlling probe parallelism, timeout values, and inter-probe delays |
| Idle Scan (-sI) | Advanced scan technique that uses a zombie host's IP ID sequence to port scan a target without sending packets from the scanner's own IP address |
| Version Intensity | Controls how many probes Nmap sends to determine service versions, ranging from 0 (light) to 9 (all probes), trading speed for accuracy |
| Grepable Output (-oG) | Legacy Nmap output format designed for easy parsing with grep, awk, and sed for scripted analysis of scan results |

Common Scenarios
Scenario: Enterprise Network Asset Discovery and Vulnerability Baseline
Context: A security team needs to establish a vulnerability baseline for a corporate network spanning 10.0.0.0/8 with approximately 5,000 active hosts. Scanning must complete within a weekend maintenance window with minimal network disruption.
Approach:
- Run layered host discovery using ARP (local subnets), TCP SYN (ports 22,80,443,445,3389), and ICMP echo probes across all /24 subnets
- Perform a full TCP SYN scan on discovered hosts using
--min-rate 5000and-T4to complete within the window - Run service version detection and default NSE scripts on all open ports
- Execute targeted NSE vulnerability scripts for critical services (SMB, SSL/TLS, HTTP)
- Parse XML output to generate per-subnet CSV reports and import into the vulnerability management platform
- Schedule Ndiff comparisons against future scans to track remediation progress
Pitfalls:
- Setting
--min-ratetoo high on congested network segments causing packet loss and false negatives - Running
-T5(Insane) timing on production networks, potentially overwhelming older network devices - Forgetting to scan UDP ports, missing critical services like SNMP (161), DNS (53), and TFTP (69)
- Not saving output in XML format (
-oXor-oA), losing structured data for downstream tool integration
