Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

SkillSpector: 2 findings, up to high
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00027 | $0.02218 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00887 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00444 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00222 |
Grade A, and why
cisco-security-cloud-setup scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 29d 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.

Cisco Security Cloud Setup
Prerequisites
| Tool or access | Purpose | Verify |
|---|---|---|
Bash, curl, and jq |

| Splunk administrative access | Install app ID 7404 and configure inputs | Confirm search-tier REST access |
| Product credentials | Authorize API/eStreamer | Store secrets in protected files |
Workflow Overview
┌───────────┐ ┌─────────────────┐ ┌──────────────────┐ ┌───────────────┐
│ Preflight │ → │ Select product │ → │ Configure inputs │ → │ Validate data │
└───────────┘ └─────────────────┘ └──────────────────┘ └───────────────┘
When to Activate
- Configure Cisco Duo, XDR, Secure Endpoint, Secure Firewall, or another supported flow.
- Install or validate the
CiscoSecurityCloudapp and its product-specific inputs. - Diagnose missing events, wrong source types, or empty app dashboards.
Scope
This skill covers product flows documented by the app. It does not route ASA
or FTD syslog through API inputs, invent unsupported endpoints, or expose
credentials in chat. Use cisco-asa-ta-setup for ASA/FTD syslog.
Examples
Install the Cisco Security Cloud app:
bash skills/cisco-security-cloud-setup/scripts/setup.sh --install
Expected output: the package and prerequisite plan is applied or a topology- specific manual handoff is emitted.
Run strict validation for configured product flows:
bash skills/cisco-security-cloud-setup/scripts/validate.sh --completion
Expected output: package, product, input, index, source type, event, and
dashboard evidence report [PASS]; incomplete flows exit nonzero.
Troubleshooting
| Issue | Cause | Resolution |
|---|---|---|
| Unsupported product | Flow is absent | Render a handoff; do not invent an API |
| Authentication fails | Credential type/scope is wrong | Verify the protected file |
| Events use ASA source typing | Syslog was routed to the wrong workflow | Hand off to cisco-asa-ta-setup |
| Dashboards are empty | Product input, index, or macro is incomplete | Validate events first, then app content |
What ships with it
8 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.
