Establish a working session against a BloodHound Enterprise deployment — verify credentials, identify the environment, list domains, and confirm the API is responding. Run this at the start of every session before any other BHE skill, or whenever a tool fails because no credentials are configured.
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
# BHE bootstrap Every other BHE skill assumes a working session: the client knows the URL, has credentials that authenticate, and has identified at least one domain to operate against. `bhe-bootstrap` is the one skill that's safe to run with no prior state. ## Workflow ### 1. Establish credentials Call `connect`. Three modes are supported: - **HMAC** (preferred for long-running sessions). Pass `token_id` + `token_key`, or rely on `BHE_TOKEN_ID` / `BHE_TOKEN_KEY` env. Long-lived; signed per-request; survives restarts. - **JWT** via login. Pass `username` + `password`; the runtime exchanges them for a session token. Useful when the operator only has a UI account. - **Pre-existing JWT**. `BHE_JWT` env, or pass after a separate exchange. If `connect` returns `auth_mode: "unconfigured"`, stop — every subsequent tool will fail. Surface the specific cause and let the caller fix it. ### 2. Confirm identity `whoami` returns the current principal — email, name, role(s). Read it back so the caller can see which account the agent is acting as. Roles matter: read-only roles can't accept findings or create selectors, and write attempts will fail with HTTP 403. …

How to install
mdr add dreadnode/capabilities/bhe-bootstrap@sha256:042dc78eab1927d5The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260504.2a64374, 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.
