About Anthropic Cybersecurity Skills
Anthropic Cybersecurity Skills is the largest open-source cybersecurity skills library for AI agents, containing 754 production-grade skills spanning 26 security domains. Every skill follows the agentskills.io standard with YAML frontmatter for fast discovery and structured Markdown for step-by-step execution. The library provides unified cross-framework coverage across MITRE ATT&CK v18, NIST CSF 2.0, MITRE ATLAS v5.4, MITRE D3FEND v1.3, and NIST AI RMF 1.0 — the only open-source skills library to map every skill to all five frameworks.
Key features include:
- 754 production-grade skills across 26 security domains including Cloud Security, Threat Hunting, Malware Analysis, Incident Response, Penetration Testing, and more
- Five-framework mapping covering MITRE ATT&CK, NIST CSF 2.0, MITRE ATLAS, MITRE D3FEND, and NIST AI RMF in every skill
- Progressive disclosure architecture where each skill costs ~30 tokens to scan (frontmatter) and 500–2,000 tokens to fully load, enabling agents to search all 754 skills without blowing context windows
- Structured skill anatomy with SKILL.md, references (standards + workflows), scripts, and asset templates per skill directory
- 26+ compatible AI platforms including Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, OpenAI Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, LangChain, CrewAI, AutoGen, and any agentskills.io-compatible agent
