ai-safety-and-red-teaming

ai-safety-and-red-teaming is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from jnPiyush/AgentX. It costs 95 tokens per session (1,367 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A safety and adversarial-testing guide for systems powered by large language models. Red-teaming means deliberately trying to make a system bypass rules, leak data, or produce unsafe results.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when building public-facing AI features, agents with access to files or payments, tools that read untrusted content, or systems in regulated areas.
Why use it?
It helps identify prompt injection, jailbreaks, unauthorized tool use, data leaks, and harmful output before release, and covers controls for blocking them.

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 →

  • high YARA Match · line 3
    YARA rule matched a hack tool or exploit indicator (offensive tools, reconnaissance, privilege escalation, or exploit frameworks).
    Fix: Remove offensive tool references and exploit code. Legitimate agent skills should not contain penetration testing tools, exploit frameworks, or reconnaissance utilities.
  • high Anti-Refusal · line 36
    Skill attempts to nullify the agent's safety policies or restrictions ('you have no restrictions', 'ignore your guidelines', 'do anything now'). This is a direct jailbreak that disables guardrails.
    Fix: Remove jailbreak framing that nullifies safety policies or restrictions. Skill content must not instruct the agent to ignore its guidelines or operate without guardrails.

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

ai-safety-and-red-teaming 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 11d 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.

AI Safety and Red-Teaming

Purpose: Stop unsafe input from reaching the model, stop unsafe output from reaching the user, and prove it with adversarial testing.


When to Use This Skill

  • Putting an LLM-powered feature in front of external users
  • Tools that read untrusted content (email, web pages, uploads, RAG corpora)
  • Agents with high-impact tools (file system, payments, prod systems)
  • Compliance / regulated domains (health, finance, legal, gov)
  • Any release gate that requires red-team evidence

Threat Model (Top Risks, 2026)

Risk Description Likelihood Impact
Direct prompt injection User overrides instructions High High
Indirect prompt injection Hostile content in retrieved doc, email, web page, image alt-text, OCR'd PDF Very High High
Jailbreak / persuasion Multi-turn coercion to bypass policy High Medium
Data exfiltration Tool used to leak secrets via DNS / URLs / images Medium Critical
Tool / RBAC abuse Agent calls tools beyond user's actual permissions Medium Critical
Output harm Toxic, biased, or illegal content Medium High
Hallucinated grounding Fabricated citations or facts presented confidently High Medium
Model supply chain Tampered open-weights model or fine-tune Low Critical
