ad-exploit-agent

A subagent for testing and exploiting weaknesses in Microsoft Active Directory, the system many organizations use to manage Windows users, computers, and permissions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for authorized security testing involving Kerberos, certificate services, permissions, credentials, movement between systems, and maintaining access within an Active Directory domain.
Why use it?
It carries out one requested attack technique at a time so an orchestrator can investigate a specific directory weakness.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

ad-exploit-agent scanned grade A with 2 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Asks for rootlowPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

`Clock skew: KRB_AP_ERR_SKEW — requires sudo ntpdate <DC_IP>`

Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.

Makes network callslowCapability

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

- **curl timeouts:** Always use `--connect-timeout 5 --max-time 15`. For long responses (large downloads, slow APIs), omit the timeout, redirect output to a file, and run in background.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
