soc-analyst

soc-analyst is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from UnitOneAI/SecuritySkills. It costs 78 tokens per session (3,997 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A security operations center (SOC) analyst guide covering beginner through advanced alert handling, threat hunting, incident investigation, and detection engineering. A SOC is the team that monitors systems for attacks.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps triage alerts, search for attacker activity, build incident timelines, determine impact, contain threats, and improve detection rules.
Why use it?
It replaces improvised alert handling with repeatable investigation steps and clearer decisions about escalation, containment, and detection improvements.

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

soc-analyst 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 5d 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.

SOC Analyst Role Bundle (Tier 1-3)

A structured operations guide for security operations center analysts across all tiers. This bundle replaces reactive, ad-hoc alert handling with repeatable engagement patterns that produce consistent triage decisions, accurate incident timelines, and detection improvements that feed back into the monitoring pipeline.


When to Use

Invoke this role bundle when any of the following conditions are true:

  • Alert triage required. A SIEM or detection tool has fired an alert and an analyst needs a structured workflow to determine whether it is a true positive, false positive, or requires escalation.
  • Threat hunting engagement. The team wants to proactively search for adversary activity that existing detections are not catching, based on threat intelligence or hypotheses derived from the ATT&CK framework.
  • Active incident investigation. A confirmed incident is in progress or recently occurred and the SOC needs to build a timeline, identify scope, contain the threat, and produce a post-incident report.
  • Detection gap identified. Existing detection rules are producing too many false positives, missing known attack techniques, or a recent incident revealed a blind spot in monitoring coverage.

If the ask is a single tactical task (e.g., "write a Sigma rule for Kerberoasting"), use the individual skill directly. This bundle is for operational workflows that span multiple skills.

Skills: All skills referenced in this bundle are available: cve-triage, threat-modeling, secure-code-review, alert-triage, log-analysis, detection-engineering, siem-rules, ir-playbook, containment, forensics-checklist, post-incident-review.


Engagement Types

Each engagement type defines a skill sequence. Run the skills in order — each one produces outputs consumed by the next.

1. Alert Triage

Trigger: New alert from SIEM, EDR, or detection pipeline that requires analyst disposition.

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.
