This skill should be used when the user asks to "plan a red team engagement", "scope a penetration test", "design a security assessment methodology", "create rules of engagement", or "plan an adversary simulation".

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

# Red Team

> **Category:** Engineering
> **Domain:** Offensive Security

## Overview

The **Red Team** skill provides tools for planning and scoping security engagements. It helps define rules of engagement, select methodologies, scope targets, plan attack phases, and generate engagement documentation.

## Clarify First

Before planning the engagement, confirm these inputs. If any is unknown or vague, ASK — do not assume:

- [ ] **Authorization & ROE owner** — who has signed off and the escalation contacts (no engagement plan without confirmed authorization)
- [ ] **In-scope targets & boundaries** — the exact assets in and explicitly out of bounds (drives scope and `--target`)
- [ ] **Engagement type** — red-team / pentest / purple / bug-bounty (sets stealth, methodology, and `--type`)
- [ ] **Compliance framework** — e.g. pci-dss (maps test cases to controls via `--compliance`)

Stop rule: ask only the 2-3 that most change the output. If the user says "just draft it," proceed and list your assumptions at the top of the artifact.

## Quick Start

```bash
# Plan a red team engagement
python scripts/engagement_planner.py --type red-team --target "web application" --duration 2w

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add borghei/claude-skills/red-team@sha256:1f14a9bd8a0239c8

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
