Route security work
Route an ambiguous cybersecurity request before tools run. Use for suspicious files, links, messages, host behavior, malware, vulnerability reports, authorized pentests, incidents, threat hunting, detection work, or security advice.From its SKILL.md

Route Security Work
Overview
Turn the user's concern into one bounded security question, identify the affected surface, and select the smallest safe owner workflow. Do not begin active probing or execute suspicious content during routing.
Read references/routing-map.md when ownership or the difference between investigation, testing, response, and remediation is unclear.
Workflow
-
State the requested decision.
- Capture what the user needs to know or do now.
- Separate “is this dangerous?” from “how does it work?”, “am I affected?”, and “how do I fix it?”.
-
Identify the surface.
- Classify the primary subject as content or artifact, endpoint, identity, network/service, application/source, vulnerability report, or active incident.
- Record the relevant artifact, host, account, service, repository, target, and time window.
-
Establish authority and urgency.
- For inspection and defensive response, confirm the user controls or is responsible for the affected surface.
- Before active testing, require the target owner, allowed targets, exclusions, time window, techniques, stop conditions, and contacts.
- If harm is ongoing, route immediate containment separately from evidence preservation.
-
Choose the next owner.
- Use
preserve-security-evidencebefore transformations or volatile state disappears. - Use
select-analysis-isolationbefore opening or executing untrusted content. - Use
assess-and-explain-threatwhen evidence exists but the practical conclusion is unclear. - Route deep binary work to
reverse-engineering-skillsand repository-wide source scans to Codex Security when available. - Route ordinary implementation or remediation to the owning Apple, protocol, language, or framework skill after the security acceptance criteria are explicit.
- Use
-
Report the route.
- Name the selected workflow, why it fits, what is intentionally deferred, and the first non-destructive action.
- Preserve uncertainty rather than selecting a dramatic path from weak evidence.
Output
Return the security question, affected surface, urgency, authority/scope state, selected owner, first safe action, and any immediate stop condition.
