maltego-transform-design

maltego-transform-design is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from hexacron/claude-transformatron-9000. It costs 34 tokens per session (908 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of instructions for planning Maltego transforms around a data source before writing code. It covers graph entities, connections between them, settings, pagination, and investigation workflows.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to design entity types, transform sets, input limits, configuration settings, and investigative paths such as domain to IP address.
Why use it?
It helps turn an external data source into a clear Maltego model before implementation decisions are made.

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

maltego-transform-design 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 8d 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.

Maltego Transform Design Skill

Purpose

Guide agents through designing Maltego transforms for a data source before writing any code. Produce a clear design covering entities, transform sets, settings, and investigator workflows.

Step-by-Step Design Process

1. Understand the Data Source

  • What objects does the API return? (domains, IPs, people, events, etc.)
  • What are the natural investigative pivots? (e.g., domain → IPs, IP → domains, email → person)
  • What parameters does the API require? (API keys, search terms, pagination tokens)

2. Map to Standard Entities FIRST

Always check maltego-transforms-std-entities before inventing custom entities.

  • Load references/standard-entity-selection.md for entity categories, import patterns, and selection guidance.
  • Import from maltego.entities (e.g., from maltego.entities import Domain, Person, IPv4Address). These classes ship in the maltego-transforms-std-entities package.
  • If a standard entity class fits — use it. Do not create a custom entity for the sake of it.

3. Propose Custom Entities Only When Needed

Custom entities are justified only when:

  • No standard entity class matches the concept.
  • The data has meaningful properties that standard entities cannot carry.
  • The entity would genuinely be pivoted on in investigations (not just a data container).

Document proposed custom entities with: name, display name, properties, and why no standard entity fits.

4. Design Transform Sets

Group transforms by investigative flow:

  • Name each transform set by its input → output concept (e.g., "Domain Enrichment", "Person Lookup").
  • Each transform set = one input entity type → one or more output entity types.
  • The input and output entity types you design here must be reflected in each transform's type annotations (first parameter for input; return annotation for output, using a union when a transform emits more than one type) — those annotations are what /api/v3/transforms publishes and what the client routes on.
  • Identify which transforms are independent vs. chained.
