Cloud Defense

Organization

cloud-defense

Detect and break the cloud post-compromise attack chain (AWS / Azure / GCP) — per-stage CloudTrail / Activity-Log / Audit-Log detection signals and the preventive controls that close each step. Use for cloud detection engineering, hardening, remediation write-ups, or blue-team posture review of the lateral-movement -> privilege-escalation -> exfiltration -> evasion chain.

  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • 3 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by transilienceai on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Cloud Defense AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/transilienceai/communitytools/tree/main/skills/cloud-defense
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.
2

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/transilienceai/communitytools.git /tmp/communitytools
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/communitytools/skills/cloud-defense .claude/skills/cloud-defense
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Cloud Defense in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Cloud Defense on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Cloud Defense is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Cloud Defense

The blue-team counterpart to cloud-containers. For each attacker move — lateral movement, privilege escalation, data exfiltration, defense evasion — this skill gives the log event to alert on and the single control that removes the technique. Use it to turn an offensive cloud finding into a concrete detection and remediation.

When to use

  • Writing the remediation / hardening section of a cloud pentest report.
  • Cloud detection engineering: deciding which control-plane events to alert on.
  • Reviewing an AWS / Azure / GCP account's posture against the post-compromise chain.

Workflow

  1. Confirm the logging prerequisites are in place (org-wide trail, data events, threat detection on) — without them the signals below are invisible.
  2. Map each attacker stage to its detection signal — see reference/detection-signals.md.
  3. Apply the preventive control that breaks each stage — see reference/hardening-controls.md.
  4. Re-run the matching offensive technique from cloud-containers to confirm the control holds or the alert fires.

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Cloud Defense AI skill do?

Detect and break the cloud post-compromise attack chain (AWS / Azure / GCP) — per-stage CloudTrail / Activity-Log / Audit-Log detection signals and the preventive controls that close each step. Use for cloud detection engineering, hardening, remediation write-ups, or blue-team posture review of the lateral-movement -> privilege-escalation -> exfiltration -> evasion chain.

Why use Cloud Defense on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Cloud Defense is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Cloud Defense in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/transilienceai/communitytools/tree/main/skills/cloud-defense. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Cloud Defense?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Cloud Defense?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Cloud Defense with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Cloud Defense AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by transilienceai under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
