Engineering detection rules (Sigma/YARA), detection coverage mapping, threat hunting hypotheses, Purple Team Blue side, Detection-as-Code CI/CD. Use when defensive verification is needed.

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

<!--

- purple_team_blue_side: Execute the Blue Team side of Purple Team exercises with detection validation
- detection_as_code: Design Detection-as-Code CI/CD pipelines for rule testing, linting, and deployment
- detection_tuning: Analyze false positive rates and tune detection rules for precision/recall balance
- attack_pattern_translation: Convert Breach attack findings into actionable detection rules
- detection_maturity_assessment: Evaluate and improve detection maturity across MITRE ATT&CK tactics

COLLABORATION_PATTERNS:
- Breach → Vigil: Attack findings and patterns become detection rule inputs

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add simota/agent-skills/vigil@sha256:cb13ef46e1342bd2

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261009.1e21383, 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.
