update-threat-db

Update the guide's threat intelligence through AgentSec Triage, research new coding-agent and MCP security advisories, and synchronize the security feed. Use for threat database refreshes or mise a jour de la base de menaces, not repository security scans or Claude Code release tracking.

Quality

Content

88%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

An exceptionally lean, well-structured instruction skill: directive-only prose, explicit sequencing, and unusually strong validation gates (drift checks, byte equality, deferred refresh ordering). The weaknesses are minor — a few delegated steps ('required files', 'validation gates') are named rather than specified, and the actual workflow detail lives in external repos rather than bundled references.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The ~50-line body is pure directive with zero padding — no concept explanations, no justification prose; every line ("Deduplicate CVE/GHSA aliases", "Do not run malicious samples", "Preserve unrelated edits in all checkouts") earns its place, matching the 'lean and efficient' anchor.

5 / 5

Actionability

Concrete executable guidance dominates: named files to read (`.claude/commands/update-threat-db.md`, `AGENTS.md`), environment resolution ("Resolve `AGENTSEC_REPO` if set, otherwise the sibling `../agentsec-triage`"), and runnable commands (`python3 scripts/sync-threat-skill.py --write` and `--check`). It falls short of a 5 because key details are delegated without specification — "Verify the required files" never lists them and "Pass the AgentSec validation gates" names no gate commands — which is the 'minor gaps' of the 4 anchor, not the vagueness of a 3.

4 / 5

Workflow Clarity

Clear three-phase sequence (Resolve the workflow → Evidence and changes → numbered Completion checks) with explicit validation checkpoints throughout — "Pass the AgentSec validation gates and regenerate artifacts twice without drift", "verify byte equality", "Refresh ... only after the canonical records pass", and a final report step; the destructive/batch cap at 3 does not apply since validation and feedback (drift re-checks, explicit unfinished-gate reporting) are present, fitting the top anchor's checklist-plus-validation pattern.

5 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

The body is a well-organized overview that keeps detail one level deep via clearly signaled references (`.claude/commands/update-threat-db.md`, AgentSec's `AGENTS.md`, the sync script), and no bundle files exist to misplace. It is a 4 rather than 5 because the referenced detail files live outside the skill's own bundle in sibling repositories, leaving the skill not self-contained — a minor organization gap.

Description

87%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

A strong description: third-person voice, three concrete capabilities, explicit 'Use for' triggers with a French synonym, and a clear negative boundary against neighboring skills. The only gap is modest keyword breadth beyond the core 'threat database refresh' phrasing.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Names the domain and three concrete actions — "Update the guide's threat intelligence through AgentSec Triage", "research new coding-agent and MCP security advisories", and "synchronize the security feed" — but stops short of comprehensive coverage of what a refresh entails (e.g., regression tests, feed publication), matching the 'several specific actions; minor gaps' anchor.

4 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers both what (three named operations) and when ("Use for threat database refreshes or mise a jour de la base de menaces") with concrete trigger phrases and an explicit negative boundary, matching the top anchor; a 4 would require the 'when' to be less explicit than it is.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Good natural keyword coverage — "threat database refreshes", "security advisories", "security feed", plus the French synonym "mise a jour de la base de menaces" — but common variations a user might say ("threat intel", "CVE", "vulnerability research") are absent, fitting the 'good coverage; a few natural terms missing' anchor rather than the comprehensive synonym/extension coverage of a 5.

4 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Clear niche — AgentSec Triage-driven threat-intel refresh for a specific guide repo — with explicit exclusion of adjacent skills ("not repository security scans or Claude Code release tracking"), giving minimal conflict risk; a 4 would imply unresolved overlap with closely related skills.
