malware-dynamic-analysis

malware-dynamic-analysis is a skill for Claude Code from gl0bal01/malware-analysis-claude-skills. It costs 102 tokens per session (5,418 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A procedure for safely running suspected malware in an isolated test environment and observing what it does. This includes watching processes, files, registry changes, network traffic, and communications with control servers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to execute samples in a protected virtual machine, capture runtime activity and network traffic, confirm analysis hypotheses, and record behavior for detections or reports.
Why use it?
Static inspection cannot always show behavior that appears only while a file is running. Isolation and monitoring reduce the risk of infecting the analyst’s computer or network.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT variable. Also seen: positional $N argument.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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

malware-dynamic-analysis 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/procmon_summary.py, scripts/sysmon_summary.py), 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 — 325 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Malware Dynamic Analysis

Two halves. Part A is a runbook the analyst follows inside the isolated VM (REMnux / FlareVM); you tailor it from triage predictions and it ends with text-format evidence exports. Part B is your work: parse that evidence on the host, reconstruct what the sample did, extract behavioral IOCs, and write findings to analysis_state.md.

Execution Model

  • You never execute the sample. The VM is network-isolated and has no Claude in it. Everything you run is on the host against exported evidence files.
  • Locate skill files. Scripts and reference files ship in this skill's directory. Set R="${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT:-<dir containing this SKILL.md>}" once (when installed as a plugin $CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT is set; otherwise it is this skill folder). Your working directory is the user's analysis workspace, so prefix every script path below with $R, e.g. python3 "$R"/scripts/ioc_extract.py.
  • Before the VM run: read the triage findings in analysis_state.md and emit a runbook tailored to the predictions (which process names to filter, which Sysmon event IDs matter, expected protocol, expected persistence, expected evasion). Skip the tailoring only if triage is missing — then use the default runbook as-is.
  • After the VM run: the user hands you an evidence directory. Inventory it, reject binary formats with the conversion command (see Converting Binary Evidence), and then work through Part B with Bash and the bundled scripts. Do not ask the user to summarize the evidence for you.
  • Scripts (relative to this skill dir): scripts/procmon_summary.py, scripts/sysmon_summary.py; plus ../scripts/ioc_extract.py at repo root. All stdlib Python 3.
  • Sandbox reports count as evidence. ANY.RUN / Joe Sandbox / Hybrid Analysis / Threat.Zone (MCP) JSON or text reports go through Part B Step 6.
  • Large files: wc -l first. Use the summary scripts and grep, never cat a 200k-line Procmon CSV.

What ships with it

5 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.

malware-dynamic-analysis is a skill published in the GitHub repository gl0bal01/malware-analysis-claude-skills (46 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 102 tokens to every session and 5,418 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
