cti-domain-research

cti-domain-research is a skill for Claude Code from Security-Phoenix-demo/security-skills-claude-code. It costs 189 tokens per session (2,539 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A threat-intelligence research tool that searches hundreds of selected security sources for vulnerabilities, malware, breaches, and related research. It can optionally send findings to a NotebookLM notebook.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to research CVEs, threat actors, malware, breach reports, and security incidents using curated sources.
Why use it?
It gathers security news and technical reporting in a structured search instead of requiring separate searches across many specialist sites. Recency, result counts, and source domains can be configured.

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

cti-domain-research 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 10d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (install.sh), 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.

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.

CTI Domain Research

Structured threat intelligence search across 300+ curated security domains with optional NotebookLM ingestion.


Customization

Configure these settings to personalize your CTI research workflow. All are optional — the skill works with sensible defaults.

Setting Description Default How to Set
Search provider Which search API to use Brave Search SEARCH_PROVIDER=brave in .env
Brave API key Your Brave Search API key — (required) BRAVE_SEARCH_API_KEY=... in .env
SerpAPI key Alternative search provider SERPAPI_KEY=... in .env
Google CSE key + ID Alternative search provider GOOGLE_CSE_KEY=... + GOOGLE_CSE_ID=... in .env
NotebookLM notebook ID Target notebook for --notebooklm flag NOTEBOOKLM_NOTEBOOK_ID=... in .env or --notebook-id flag
Default result count Results per tier 10 --count N flag per query
Default recency How far back to search 90 days --since DAYS flag per query
Custom domains Add your own security sources 595 built-in Edit data/domains.txt and data/tier-map.json

Setup steps:

  1. Copy .env.example to .env in the plugin directory
  2. Add your search API key (Brave recommended — 2,000 free requests/month)
  3. Optionally set your NotebookLM notebook ID
  4. Restart Claude Code
cd ~/.claude/plugins/cti-search-plugin
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your API keys

Adding custom domains:

# Add a domain (one per line)
echo "your-security-blog.com" >> data/domains.txt

# Add tier mapping
# Edit data/tier-map.json and add:
# "your-security-blog.com": { "tier": 3, "authority": 70 }

Workflow

1. Parse query + flags
2. Select domain tier(s) based on query type
3. Execute scoped web searches (site: operator per domain batch)
4. Deduplicate + rank results by recency and source authority
5. Extract: title, source, date, summary, key IOCs/TTPs/CVEs mentioned
6. [Optional] Push findings to NotebookLM via connector plugin
7. Return structured CTI brief

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.
