What it does

Once installed, the agent can produce ready-to-fill communication templates for a malware incident such as ransomware or a wiper attack. It maps severity levels (P1 to P4) to notification timelines and audiences, and drafts internal notices, executive briefings, technical advisories with indicator-of-compromise sections, and regulatory notification letters. It can also run a small Python script that generates templates for a given case.

Great for

  • Incident response teams standardizing how they communicate during an outbreak
  • Security managers who want severity-based escalation rules written down
  • Teams preparing communication playbooks before an incident happens

Skip it if

  • Live incidents needing legal or regulatory advice: the templates are generic and do not replace counsel or the regulator's required format
  • Organizations expecting automatic notifications: the scripts only generate text and do not send emails or alerts

Try asking

  • “Draft an initial P1 ransomware notification for our IR team using our incident ID format”
  • “Write an executive briefing for the CEO summarizing business impact of a wiper infection”
  • “Create a technical advisory with IOC sections for IT teams to block a trojan's C2 domains”

Get better results

  • Review the severity timelines against your own incident response policy before using them, since the skill's values are generic defaults and differ slightly between SKILL.md and the scripts
  • Have legal and compliance review any regulatory or customer notification before sending
  • Keep the generated files in a controlled location, since drafts can contain sensitive incident details
