initial-recon skillA

initial-recon is agent-read markdown (skill) from dreadnode/capabilities: Use when beginning a web assessment from a domain, wildcard, ASN, organization, IP list, or CIDR and measurable attack-surface coverage is needed..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

How to install

Latest version
mdr add dreadnode/capabilities/initial-recon@git:20260722.f41aa86
Exact content
mdr add dreadnode/capabilities/initial-recon@sha256:f098b019a923f098

Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
