endpoint-hardening

endpoint-hardening is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Miosa-osa/OSA. It costs 42 tokens per session (401 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide for reviewing host-service permissions and security settings, then preparing reversible changes. It checks that normal behavior still works and that the host better resists attacks.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps harden Linux services, reduce permissions, secure workstations, and check defensive configuration changes.
Why use it?
It helps reduce unnecessary privileges and insecure services without making changes that are difficult to undo. Verification helps catch disruptions after hardening.

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

endpoint-hardening 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 1mo 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

Endpoint Hardening

Workflow

  1. Inventory OS, service owner, exposure and required functionality before selecting controls.
  2. Read the service assessment example; collect actual effective configuration and permissions.
  3. Rank concrete excess privileges or writable trust paths; do not treat an automated score as exploit proof.
  4. Prepare one change at a time with exact prior config, restart impact and rollback procedure.
  5. Test in a disposable equivalent environment; require both restricted unsafe behavior and passing functional checks.
  6. Report untested platform differences and preserve recovery access before any authorized host rollout.

Worked example and prerequisites

Read references/workflow.md before execution. Use only registered OSA tools named in the frontmatter; command examples run through shell_execute. Check command -v for each external executable on the actual target. Optional packages, external collectors and vendor accounts are not bundled or presumed installed.

Evidence and completion

Return scope, prerequisites, exact checks, observed results, evidence paths, limitations, remediation, rollback and retest status. Mark unavailable checks as blocked or unverified. Preserve original evidence and report redacted copies where needed. Work within the authorized environment; do not silently expand to external targets.

Sources

Original OSA workflow and examples. Primary references are linked in the bundled workflow reference, so they remain available when this skill is installed separately. No third-party skill collection or rule pack is vendored.

Files

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
