malware-triage-workflow

malware-triage-workflow is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from mattmre/EVOKORE-MCP-PUBLIC. It costs 49 tokens per session (513 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A process for quickly examining a suspicious binary—an executable file that may be harmful—using code inspection, pattern matching, and debugger checks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect file structure, imports, strings, sections, suspicious system calls, YARA matches, persistence, credential access, network control, code injection, and encryption behavior.
Why use it?
It identifies risky behavior and the most important unknowns before committing to a full malware investigation.

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-triage-workflow 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.

What it actually says

Malware Triage Workflow

Run a behavior-first triage that quickly answers what the sample touches, how risky it looks, and which routines deserve deep reverse engineering.

Workflow

  1. Collect static indicators first:
    • format, architecture, packer or entropy clues
    • imports, exports, strings, sections, resources
    • suspicious APIs and network / filesystem / registry markers
    • YARA or family-pattern matches if available
  2. Identify high-risk behavior buckets:
    • persistence
    • credential access
    • command and control
    • injection / hollowing
    • crypto / ransomware behavior
    • anti-analysis / sandbox checks
  3. Select a small set of target functions for deeper decompilation.
  4. Use debugger confirmation only for the riskiest unknowns:
    • decoded config
    • runtime-resolved imports
    • dropped paths
    • beacon construction
    • key material or encryption flow
  5. Produce a short operator report before moving into full family-level RE.

Tool Families to Prefer

  • binary_analysis_*triage*
  • binary_analysis_*malware*
  • binary_analysis_*yara*
  • binary_analysis_*control*
  • binary_analysis_*report*
  • ghidra_headless_search.*
  • ghidra_headless_reference.*
  • ghidra_headless_decomp.function

Output Structure

  1. Sample identity and format summary
  2. Top suspicious indicators
  3. Likely behavior categories
  4. Priority functions / addresses for deeper RE
  5. Dynamic checks still required
  6. Confidence level and major unknowns

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-triage-workflow is a skill published in the GitHub repository mattmre/EVOKORE-MCP-PUBLIC (3 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 49 tokens to every session and 513 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-08-31.
