competition-cloud-metadata-path from novaestellar/novahaku is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Internal downstream skill for ctf-sandbox-orchestrator. CTF-sandbox workflow for cloud metadata services, instance identity, workload identity, link-local credential paths, role assumption, and metadata-to-privilege trust edges. Use when the user asks to inspect metadata-service access, instance credentials, pod or workload identity, link-local token paths, SSRF-to-metadata escalation, or explain how metadata-derived credentials turn into accepted cloud or control-plane privilege. Use only…
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
# Competition Cloud Metadata Path Use this skill only as a downstream specialization after `$ctf-sandbox-orchestrator` is already active and has established sandbox assumptions, node ownership, and evidence priorities. If that has not happened yet, return to `$ctf-sandbox-orchestrator` first. Use this skill when the decisive edge is not just reaching metadata, but proving how metadata-derived identity becomes accepted privilege. Reply in Simplified Chinese unless the user explicitly requests English. ## Quick Start 1. Identify which metadata surface is active: instance metadata, workload identity, node identity, task role, or platform-specific token endpoint. 2. Record the exact reachability path: local process, pod, container, proxy, SSRF surface, or host route. 3. Separate metadata reachability from credential issuance and from downstream privilege acceptance. 4. Keep token format, role identity, scope, and accepting API in compact evidence blocks. 5. Reproduce the smallest metadata-to-accepted-privilege path that proves the challenge edge. ## Workflow ### 1. Map Metadata Reachability …

How to install
mdr add novaestellar/novahaku/competition-cloud-metadata-path@sha256:69cf4f30f83f5c5eThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260925.9330cc6, 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.
