host-forensics SKILL.md skillB

host-forensics from gensecaihq/wazuh-autopilot is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add gensecaihq/wazuh-autopilot/host-forensics@v1.1

Pins v1.1 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Live triage of a Wazuh-monitored host — processes, listening ports, configuration, agent health, persistence locations — with evidence-handling notes; use when a specific endpoint is suspected of compromise.

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

# Host Forensics

Remote, read-only live response through the Wazuh agent's inventory (syscollector) and
alert history. You cannot image disks or run commands; you work from what the agent
reports. Be explicit about that limitation in findings.

## Procedure

1. Identify the agent: `get_wazuh_agents` (match name/IP) → `agent_id`, OS, version,
   last keepalive.
2. `check_agent_health` — a disconnected or stale agent means inventory may be old;
   record the inventory timestamp. Syscollector inventories run on an interval (1 hour by
   default), so a short-lived process may never appear, and a killed one may still be
   listed until the next scan. Compare `scan.time` with the incident time.
3. `get_agent_processes(agent_id)` — review with the heuristics below.
4. `get_agent_ports(agent_id)` — listening and established sockets.
5. `get_agent_configuration(agent_id)` — confirm FIM/rootcheck/log collection is
   enabled; attackers disable monitoring.
6. `get_wazuh_alerts(agent_id=..., timestamp_start="now-7d")` — FIM
   (rules 550, 553, 554; registry rules 594, 598, 750, 752), rootcheck
   (rule 510; rule 513 Windows malware), SCA (rule 19011 check passed → failed) and audit

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add gensecaihq/wazuh-autopilot/host-forensics@sha256:aa09fd0e1fcaee04

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.1, 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.
