windows-boundaries

windows-boundaries is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from jessefmoore/offensive-claude-code. It costs 0 tokens per session (2,034 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A security skill about Windows trust boundaries, such as the separation between user programs, the operating-system kernel, sandboxes, and protected processes. It describes boundary types and when to investigate them.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when analysing Windows sandbox escapes, kernel or driver exposure, AppContainer and LPAC restrictions, COM or RPC boundaries, integrity levels, or protected processes.
Why use it?
It gives security work a structured way to examine how code might cross from a less trusted Windows area into a more privileged one. The supplied material focuses on research and exploitation paths.

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

windows-boundaries 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 3d 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.

Windows Security Boundaries

When to Activate

  • Planning privilege escalation paths through security boundaries
  • Sandbox escape research (browser, Office, AppContainer)
  • Understanding Windows security architecture for exploitation
  • Kernel/user boundary crossing

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.

windows-boundaries is a skill published in the GitHub repository jessefmoore/offensive-claude-code (2 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 2,034 tokens. 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 2026-08-31.
