configuring-host-based-intrusion-detection

configuring-host-based-intrusion-detection is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Njones17/AI-agent-master-cyber-skills-list. It costs 97 tokens per session (2,189 once invoked), scanned C, original, no licence file.

A guide to setting up host-based intrusion detection, which watches individual computers for unauthorized file, system, or configuration changes. It covers tools such as OSSEC, Wazuh, and AIDE.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to deploy endpoint monitoring, define file-integrity policies, and track changes to systems and configurations.
Why use it?
It helps detect tampering on endpoints that network monitoring may not reveal and supports file-integrity and compliance checks.

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 C, and why

configuring-host-based-intrusion-detection scanned grade C with 2 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 9d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/process.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Hidden instructionshighPrompt injection

Directives inside HTML comments, invisible characters or bidirectional overrides are read by the model and not by the person reviewing the file.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

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.
