Red Team Tactics

Overview

This public intake copy packages

plugins/antigravity-awesome-skills-claude/skills/red-team-tactics

https://github.com/sickn33/antigravity-awesome-skills

Use it when the operator needs the upstream workflow, support files, and repository context to stay intact while the public validator and private enhancer continue their normal downstream flow.

This intake keeps the copied upstream files intact and uses

metadata.json

ORIGIN.md

AUTHORIZED USE ONLY: Use this skill only for authorized security assessments, defensive validation, or controlled educational environments. # Red Team Tactics > Adversary simulation principles based on MITRE ATT&CK framework. ---

Imported source sections that did not map cleanly to the public headings are still preserved below or in the support files. Notable imported sections: 1. MITRE ATT&CK Phases, 3. Initial Access Vectors, 7. Active Directory Attacks, 9. Ethical Boundaries, 10. Anti-Patterns, Limitations.

When to Use This Skill

Use this section as the trigger filter. It should make the activation boundary explicit before the operator loads files, runs commands, or opens a pull request.

• This skill is applicable to execute the workflow or actions described in the overview.
• Use when the request clearly matches the imported source intent: Red team tactics principles based on MITRE ATT&CK. Attack phases, detection evasion, reporting.
• Use when the operator should preserve upstream workflow detail instead of rewriting the process from scratch.
• Use when provenance needs to stay visible in the answer, PR, or review packet.
• Use when copied upstream references, examples, or scripts materially improve the answer.
• Use when the workflow should remain reviewable in the public intake repo before the private enhancer takes over.

Workflow

This workflow is intentionally editorial and operational at the same time. It keeps the imported source useful to the operator while still satisfying the public intake standards that feed the downstream enhancer flow.

1. Confirm the user goal, the scope of the imported workflow, and whether this skill is still the right router for the task.
2. Read the overview and provenance files before loading any copied upstream support files.
3. Load only the references, examples, prompts, or scripts that materially change the outcome for the current request.
4. Execute the upstream workflow while keeping provenance and source boundaries explicit in the working notes.
5. Validate the result against the upstream expectations and the evidence you can point to in the copied files.
6. Escalate or hand off to a related skill when the work moves out of this imported workflow's center of gravity.
7. Before merge or closure, record what was used, what changed, and what the reviewer still needs to verify.

Phase Objectives

Examples

Example 1: Ask for the upstream workflow directly

Use @red-team-tactics to handle <task>. Start from the copied upstream workflow, load only the files that change the outcome, and keep provenance visible in the answer.

Explanation: This is the safest starting point when the operator needs the imported workflow, but not the entire repository.

Example 2: Ask for a provenance-grounded review

Review @red-team-tactics against metadata.json and ORIGIN.md, then explain which copied upstream files you would load first and why.

Explanation: Use this before review or troubleshooting when you need a precise, auditable explanation of origin and file selection.

Example 3: Narrow the copied support files before execution

Use @red-team-tactics for <task>. Load only the copied references, examples, or scripts that change the outcome, and name the files explicitly before proceeding.

Explanation: This keeps the skill aligned with progressive disclosure instead of loading the whole copied package by default.

Example 4: Build a reviewer packet

Review @red-team-tactics using the copied upstream files plus provenance, then summarize any gaps before merge.

Explanation: This is useful when the PR is waiting for human review and you want a repeatable audit packet.

Best Practices

Treat the generated public skill as a reviewable packaging layer around the upstream repository. The goal is to keep provenance explicit and load only the copied source material that materially improves execution.

• Type - Trade-off
• Passive - No target contact, limited info
• Active - Direct contact, more detection risk
• Category - Value
• Technology stack - Attack vector selection
• Employee info - Social engineering
• Network ranges - Scanning scope

Attack Narrative

Document the full attack chain:

1. How initial access was gained
2. What techniques were used
3. What objectives were achieved
4. Where detection failed

Detection Gaps

For each successful technique:

• What should have detected it?
• Why didn't detection work?
• How to improve detection

Troubleshooting

Problem: The operator skipped the imported context and answered too generically

Symptoms: The result ignores the upstream workflow in

plugins/antigravity-awesome-skills-claude/skills/red-team-tactics

metadata.json

ORIGIN.md

Problem: The imported workflow feels incomplete during review

Symptoms: Reviewers can see the generated

SKILL.md

Problem: The task drifted into a different specialization

Symptoms: The imported skill starts in the right place, but the work turns into debugging, architecture, design, security, or release orchestration that a native skill handles better. Solution: Use the related skills section to hand off deliberately. Keep the imported provenance visible so the next skill inherits the right context instead of starting blind.

Attack Categories

Imported: 9. Ethical Boundaries

Always

• Stay within scope
• Minimize impact
• Report immediately if real threat found
• Document all actions

Never

• Destroy production data
• Cause denial of service (unless scoped)
• Access beyond proof of concept
• Retain sensitive data

Imported: 10. Anti-Patterns

Remember: Red team simulates attackers to improve defenses, not to cause harm.

Imported: Limitations

• Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
• Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
• Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
