What it does

This skill teaches an AI agent to pull MITRE ATT&CK data about named threat groups (APT actors) and turn their known techniques into colored heatmap files that can be viewed in MITRE's ATT&CK Navigator web tool. The agent can compare several groups, overlay them against your own detection coverage, and point out techniques that are not yet covered. The output is a JSON layer file plus a written summary useful for threat-intel reports.

Great for

  • Detection engineers checking which attacker techniques their monitoring misses
  • Threat-intel analysts preparing Navigator visualizations for reports
  • Security teams comparing technique overlap between several threat groups

Skip it if

  • Live incident response, since it works from static ATT&CK reference data rather than your own logs (it cannot confirm an attack is happening)
  • Users without security background who need a plain-language threat briefing; the output assumes ATT&CK and STIX familiarity

Try asking

  • “Build an ATT&CK Navigator layer showing the techniques used by APT29 and export it as JSON”
  • “Compare the techniques of APT28, APT29 and Lazarus Group and highlight the overlap”
  • “Show which techniques used by a given APT group have no detection coverage in my current layer”

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Point the script at a local copy of the ATT&CK JSON bundle to avoid repeated downloads and keep runs reproducible
  • Review generated layer files before sharing, since the script hardcodes version metadata that may be outdated (the template references ATT&CK 14 and Navigator 4.9.1 while the workflow uses 16.1 and 5.1.0)
  • Verify group G-codes and aliases against the official ATT&CK site before reporting results
