dfir

dfir is a skill for Claude Code from transilienceai/communitytools. It costs 51 tokens per session (1,533 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A digital forensics and incident-response guide for examining computer and network evidence. It covers Windows event logs, network captures, disk files, memory, and attacks against Windows domain systems.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps inventory and parse evidence, identify suspicious activity, trace logins and privileges, detect domain attacks, extract artifacts from memory or network captures, and build timelines.
Why use it?
It helps reconstruct what happened during a security incident by connecting evidence from different sources and times. It reduces the risk of missing attack indicators hidden in logs, files, or network traffic.

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

dfir 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.

DFIR

Investigate security incidents by analyzing event logs, network captures, and filesystem artifacts. Detect and reconstruct AD attack chains.

Techniques

Domain Key Capabilities
Windows Event Logs EVTX parsing, Event ID correlation, logon tracking, privilege enumeration
Network Forensics PCAP analysis, NTLM extraction, LLMNR/NBT-NS poisoning detection, relay identification
Filesystem Forensics MFT parsing, Prefetch analysis, VSS artifact recovery, Linux persistence, timeline reconstruction
AD Attack Detection Kerberoasting, AS-REP roasting, NTDS dump, NTLM relay, credential theft
Memory Forensics Volatility3 analysis: process trees, file extraction, SID resolution, command lines
Hash Analysis NTLMv2 hash construction from pcap, offline cracking validation

Workflow

  1. Inventory evidence — List all artifacts (EVTX, pcap, MFT, prefetch, registry)
  2. Parse structured data — EVTX with python-evtx, pcap with tshark, MFT with analyzeMFT
  3. Identify attack indicators — Key Event IDs, suspicious traffic patterns, anomalous files
  4. Correlate across sources — Match timestamps, IPs, LogonIDs, and process IDs across artifacts
  5. Reconstruct timeline — Build chronological attack chain with UTC timestamps
  6. Answer investigative questions — Map findings to specific incident response queries

Tools

pip install python-evtx windowsprefetch analyzeMFT
brew install wireshark p7zip hashcat
Tool Purpose
python-evtx Parse Windows .evtx files
tshark CLI pcap analysis (NTLM, LLMNR, SMB filters)
analyzeMFT Parse NTFS Master File Table
windowsprefetch Parse Windows prefetch files (Windows host only)
hashcat Hash cracking (NTLMv2 mode 5600, Kerberos mode 13100/18200)
volatility3 Memory dump analysis (pstree, filescan, dumpfiles, getsid, cmdline)
7z Extract AES-encrypted evidence ZIPs

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.

dfir is a skill published in the GitHub repository transilienceai/communitytools (600 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 51 tokens to every session and 1,533 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-08-30.
