ad-attack-paths

ad-attack-paths is a command for coding agents from ADScanPro/Claude-AD. It costs 42 tokens per session (395 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that starts an agent to reason about possible routes from a low-privilege Active Directory account to Domain Admin. Active Directory manages users and computers in a Windows domain, and BloodHound CE is a graph tool for viewing relationships in that domain.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after running AD reconnaissance to rank possible attack paths and document each step, command, feasibility, monitoring, rollback, and compliance theme. It stops and asks for approval before execution.
Why use it?
It turns collected directory data into a reviewed attack plan before any exploitation happens. The required approval step helps a human decide which actions are allowed in an authorized assessment.

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-attack-paths scanned grade A with 0 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 4d 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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Reason attack paths to Domain Admin for $1.

Authorized engagements only. This reads the inventory produced by /ad-recon. If no inventory exists under ./ad-engagement/, tell the operator to run /ad-recon $1 first and stop.

Steps:

  1. Read ./ad-engagement/scope.md (objective and forbidden actions) and the inventory + BloodHound CE zip from /ad-recon.

  2. Launch the ad-attack-planner agent with those inputs. It loads the graph into BloodHound CE, reasons which edges to chain from a low-privilege principal to the objective (ACL abuse, Kerberos, ADCS ESC1/ESC8, DCSync, coercion + relay), and checks each hop against posture using ad-environment-constraints and compliance-mapping.

  3. The planner does not execute. It writes a plan file to ./ad-engagement/ and presents the ranked path(s) with, per step: the technique-skill, the exact standard-tool command, feasibility, telemetry, rollback where state changes, and a conceptual compliance theme.

  4. Present the plan and stop at the confirmation gate. Ask the operator which steps are approved. Only after explicit human approval does ad-exploit-operator run any step, one at a time, with its own gate before anything that modifies the directory.

Recommend the quietest path that reaches the objective, but let the human decide.

Changes

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.
