cisco-security-cloud-setup

cisco-security-cloud-setup is a skill for Codex from chambear2809/splunk-cisco-skills. It costs 27 tokens per session (2,189 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A setup guide for collecting supported Cisco Security Cloud product data in Splunk, including Duo, XDR, Secure Endpoint, and Secure Firewall flows. It configures the product-specific API or eStreamer inputs documented by the app.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to install and validate the Cisco Security Cloud app, select a supported product flow, configure inputs, and check that data appears correctly in Splunk.
Why use it?
It helps prevent missing events, incorrect source labels, and empty dashboards caused by incomplete or unsupported input configuration.

Skill for Codex

Written for Codex: agents/openai.yaml present.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is bash skills/shared/scripts/setup_credentials.sh.

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 →

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

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 6d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 4 executable files (scripts/configure_input.sh, scripts/configure_product.sh, scripts/setup.sh, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

│ 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 CiscoSecurityCloud app 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 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.
