security-case-management

A tool for managing security operations centre cases through Kibana, Elastic Security's web interface. A case is a record used to track an incident, its alerts, findings, and investigation notes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating, finding, updating, assigning, and reviewing security cases; linking alerts; adding notes; and changing case status or severity.
Why use it?
It keeps related security alerts and investigation work together instead of scattered across separate records.

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

security-case-management 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 2d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/case-manager.js, scripts/kibana-client.js), 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.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 191 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Case Management

Manage SOC cases through the Kibana Cases API. All cases are scoped to securitySolution — this skill operates exclusively within Elastic Security. Cases appear in Kibana Security and can be assigned to analysts, linked to alerts, and pushed to external incident management systems via connectors.

Prerequisites

Install dependencies before first use from the skills/security directory:

cd skills/security && npm install

Set the required environment variables (or add them to a .env file in the workspace root):

export KIBANA_URL="https://your-cluster.kb.cloud.example.com:443"
export KIBANA_API_KEY="your-kibana-api-key"

When to use

  • Creating a case after alert triage (classification, IOCs, findings)
  • Searching for existing cases to correlate related alerts
  • Adding investigation comments or attaching alerts to an existing case
  • Updating case status or severity
  • Listing recent cases for review

When NOT to use

  • Do not use this skill for Observability or Elasticsearch cases — it hardcodes owner: securitySolution
  • Do not use for cases outside the Security solution space

Execution rules

  • Start executing tools immediately — do not read SKILL.md, browse the workspace, or list files first.
  • Report tool output faithfully. Copy case IDs, titles, tags, severities, and counts exactly as returned by the API. Do not abbreviate case IDs, truncate titles, invent details, or round numbers.
  • When the API returns zero results, state that explicitly — do not guess at possible results.
  • When listing or finding cases, report the exact total count from the API response and present each case with its verbatim title, severity, and status.

Quick start

All commands run from the workspace root. All output is JSON. Call the tools directly — do not read the skill file or explore the workspace first. For attach-alert/attach-alerts, --rule-id and --rule-name are required by the Kibana API (use --rule-id unknown --rule-name unknown if unknown). Use attach-alerts for batch with automatic rate-limit retry and 2-second spacing between API calls.

Files

What ships with it

3 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.

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.
