runtime-security SKILL.md skillA

This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.

runtime-security from nitinjain999/platform-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add nitinjain999/platform-skills/runtime-security@git:20261018.90b97a9

Pins git:20261018.90b97a9 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Detect and respond to in-container threats at the syscall level using Falco (eBPF-based, CNCF, open-source, no license cost). Covers Falco installation on EKS/GKE with eBPF driver, custom rule authoring, alert routing via Falcosidekick, rule debugging, and bridging Falco runtime signals to Kyverno admission enforcement. Use when asked to "detect privilege escalation in containers", "set up runtime threat detection", "write a Falco rule", "route Falco alerts to Slack", or…

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

Detect and respond to threats inside running containers using Falco.

## Interactive Wizard (fires when no arguments are provided)

When invoked with no arguments, ask before proceeding:

**Q1 — Mode?**
```
What do you need?
  1. install  — deploy Falco on Kubernetes (EKS or GKE) with eBPF driver
  2. rules    — write and test a custom Falco rule
  3. alerts   — configure Falcosidekick to route alerts (Slack, webhook, etc.)
  4. debug    — diagnose why a Falco rule is not firing
  5. harden   — map runtime Falco alerts to Kyverno admission policies

  Alerts on behaviour a container never showed while learning (profile-based,
  no rule writing), or Kubescape already runs → /platform-skills:kubescape-operator runtime

Enter 1–5 or mode name:
```

Before `install`, check for another eBPF agent: `kubectl get ds -A | grep -iE 'node-agent|tetragon'`. Kubescape's node-agent with `runtimeDetection` overlaps with Falco on the same nodes; pick one per node pool, or disable Kubescape's `runtimeDetection` and keep its posture and CVE capabilities.

**Q2 — Context** (after mode selected, one at a time):
- **install**: `Which cloud platform? EKS / GKE / other (specify node OS if known):`
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add nitinjain999/platform-skills/runtime-security@sha256:fdc3c74aaf98cce8

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261018.90b97a9, 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.
