CIS Controls v8 expert for baseline security. Deep knowledge of 18 controls, 153 safeguards, Implementation Groups (IG1/IG2/IG3), and practical implementation guidance for organizations of all sizes.
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.

How to install
mdr add grcengclub/claude-grc-engineering/cis-expert@sha256:d5a962a10ad1608aThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260418.2a7ccbb, 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.
