acl-rule-analysis

acl-rule-analysis is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from LeoYeAI/openclaw-master-skills. It costs 64 tokens per session (4,065 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for checking access-control lists and firewall policies across several network vendors. It finds rules that are hidden by earlier rules, too open, unused, duplicated, or poorly ordered.

In plain words
What is it for?
Reviewing Cisco, Juniper, Arista, Palo Alto, Fortinet, and Check Point rules after migrations, during cleanup, or when preparing compliance evidence.
Why use it?
It exposes common rule problems that can weaken security, create unnecessary maintenance, or prevent intended rules from taking effect.

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 →

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

acl-rule-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 2mo 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.

ACL and Firewall Rule Analysis

Vendor-agnostic rule analysis for access control lists and firewall policies. Unlike vendor-specific firewall audit skills that evaluate platform features (App-ID, Security Profile Groups, zone protection), this skill focuses on universal rule patterns that apply across all platforms: shadowed rules, redundant rules, overly permissive rules, and unused rules.

Covers ACL-based platforms (Cisco IOS/IOS-XE/ASA, Juniper JunOS, Arista EOS) and policy-based firewalls (Palo Alto PAN-OS, Fortinet FortiGate, Check Point). The analysis algorithms are vendor-agnostic — only the rule retrieval commands differ by platform.

Commands use inline labels [Cisco], [JunOS], [EOS], [PAN-OS], [FortiGate], [CheckPoint] where syntax diverges. Unlabeled statements apply universally. See references/cli-reference.md for full command tables and references/rule-patterns.md for detection algorithm details.

When to Use

  • Post-migration rule cleanup after converting from one platform to another
  • Periodic rulebase hygiene to remove accumulated technical debt
  • Compliance preparation requiring rule-level justification and minimal privilege
  • Incident investigation — determining whether a rule permitted malicious traffic
  • Change validation after rulebase modifications to confirm no shadowed rules
  • Capacity optimization — reducing rule count to improve lookup performance
  • Merger/acquisition integration — consolidating overlapping rulebases

Prerequisites

  • Read-only access to the target device via SSH, console, or API
  • Rulebase with hit counters enabled (most platforms enable by default)
  • For unused rule detection: hit count data accumulated over an extended period (30+ days minimum, 90 days recommended for seasonal traffic patterns)
  • Knowledge of intended security policy — which traffic should be permitted and which should be denied between network segments
  • Understanding of implicit deny behavior for the platform (varies — see Troubleshooting)

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.
