BB firewall-aiops
Use this skill whenever the user needs to operate an OPNsense or pfSense firewall — a one-shot overview, firmware/health, interfaces and gateways, firewall rules with hit-counts and shadow analysis, NAT (port-forward/outbound/1:1), aliases and their entries, VPN (WireGuard/OpenVPN/IPsec), DHCP leases and static mappings, the firewall log and state table, three flagship RCAs (gateway health, rule hit/shadow, blocked traffic), and governed writes (toggle a rule, add/remove an alias entry, kill states, restart a service, apply/reconfigure to make edits live, reboot). Always use this skill for "OPNsense", "pfSense", "firewall rule", "port forward", "NAT", "alias", "WireGuard", "OpenVPN", "IPsec", "DHCP lease", "firewall log", "blocked traffic", "why is my WAN down", "gateway loss/latency", "unused / shadowed rules", "apply firewall changes", "reboot the firewall" when the context is an OPNsense/pfSense firewall. Do NOT use when the target is something other than an OPNsense/pfSense firewall (a hypervisor, storage appliance, backup product, container-orchestration cluster, multi-vendor router/switch config, or OT/industrial equipment) — route those to the appropriate other AIops-tools skill. Cloud security groups and vendor firewall appliances are out of scope. Governed firewall operations with a built-in governance harness (audit, policy, token budget, undo, risk-tiers). Live-verified against real OPNsense 26.7 and pfSense CE 2.7.2 on top of the mock test suite; see docs/VERIFICATION.md for exactly what each run proved and what is still untested.

What is at stake
Medium-severity findings: the skill is probably honest, but read what alarmed the scanner.
Below is the worst case for this category. The finding here is medium: the guard saw a sign, not a proof.
The skill asks for more than the task needs: broad tool access, credential environment variables, binaries. Every extra permission widens the damage from a mistake or a compromise.
Narrow allowed-tools and the variable list to the minimum; replace binaries with readable sources or scripts.
How to improve
- Shorten the description to 1024 characters.
- Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
- A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
