Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# research-new-attack-classes Keep AVE current with the real threat landscape. This skill researches agentic AI / MCP attack classes from primary sources, benchmarks each against the existing AVE record set, and for every class decides one of three outcomes: ALREADY COVERED, VARIANT OF EXISTING, or NEW CLASS. For NEW CLASS only, it opens a GitHub issue and hands off to add-ave-record. This skill never pads. It maps to distinct behavioral classes that exist in cited research. If a "new" attack is just a textual variant of a class AVE already covers, it is logged as a variant, not a new record. --- ## When to run this - Monthly cadence (the field moves fast — set a recurring reminder) - After a major disclosure (a new CVE, a new OX/Invariant/HiddenLayer report) - After a new academic taxonomy or benchmark paper drops - Before a release (close the gap deliberately) Do NOT run this to hit a record-count target. Run it to stay current. There is no quota. The right number of records equals the number of distinct behavioral classes that exist — no more. --- ## Inputs - The current record set in `records/*.json` - The schema in `schema/ave-record.schema.json` …

How to install
mdr add aveproject/ave/research-new-attack-classes@sha256:e47bb3bfc39a689aThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260717.294d215, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
