CC implementing-continuous-security-validation-with-bas

Deploys Breach and Attack Simulation (BAS) platforms such as SafeBreach, AttackIQ, Picus, Cymulate, Pentera, or SCYTHE to continuously validate endpoint, network, email-gateway, SIEM, and incident-response effectiveness by safely emulating MITRE ATT&CK techniques. Use when moving beyond point-in-time pentesting to continuous control validation, or standing up automated adversary emulation.

How to improve

    For the model run — optional
    • 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.

    • 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
    • 0Failures and branches. Linear process with no failure handling
    • 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works

    • medium Safety rules and hard prohibitions inside a skill: they belong in the system prompt, here they protect nothing

    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.

    Quality signals

    • +5Description has no quoted example phrases that should trigger the skill
    • +4Description does not say when NOT to use the skill (false activations)
    • +3Output format is not stated: the model decides each time
    • -43 reference files, but SKILL.md never points to them: the model will not open them
    • -32 of 2 scripts are never mentioned in SKILL.md
    • +2Single-language instructions
    • +3Description length 392: enough signal without eating the budget
    • +4Structure: 16 headings
