redteam
Red team adversarial analysis to find weaknesses, vulnerabilities, and failure modes. Use before launches, for security review, or when a plan feels too perfect.
Best use case
redteam is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.
Red team adversarial analysis to find weaknesses, vulnerabilities, and failure modes. Use before launches, for security review, or when a plan feels too perfect.
Teams using redteam should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.
When to use this skill
- You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.
When not to use this skill
- You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
- You cannot install or maintain the underlying files, dependencies, or repository context.

# Red Team Analysis Conduct an adversarial analysis to find weaknesses, vulnerabilities, and failure modes in a plan, system, or strategy. ## Instructions Think like an attacker. Your job is to break this, find the gaps, and expose what could go wrong. Be thorough and creative in your attacks. ### Output Format **Target**: [What we're attacking] **Objective**: [What would "breaking it" look like?] --- ## Target Understanding **Summary of the Plan/System** [Brief description of what we're analyzing] **Key Assumptions** - [Assumption 1] - [Assumption 2] --- ## Attack Surface Analysis **Entry Points / Vulnerabilities** | Vector | Description | Severity | |--------|-------------|----------| | [attack vector] | [how it could be exploited] | Critical/High/Med/Low | --- ## Failure Mode Analysis ### Technical/Operational Failures | Failure Mode | Trigger | Impact | |--------------|---------|--------| | [what could fail] | [what causes it] | [effect] | ### Human Failures | Failure Mode | Trigger | Impact | |--------------|---------|--------| | [human error] | [situation] | [consequence] | --- ## Adversary Scenarios **If I wanted this to fail, I would...** ### Scenario 1: [Attack Name] - **Attack method**: [how they'd do it] - **Likelihood of success**: [High/Med/Low] - **Impact if successful**: [consequences] ### Scenario 2: [Attack Name] - **Attack method**: [how] - **Likelihood of success**: [High/Med/Low] - **Impact if successful**: [consequences] --- ## Assumption Attacks | Assumption | Attack | What If Wrong? | |------------|--------|----------------| | [assumption] | [challenge to it] | [consequences] | --- ## Blind Spot Analysis **What are we not seeing?** - [Blind spot 1] - [Blind spot 2] **What are we too optimistic about?** - [Over-optimism 1] --- ## Red Team Findings ### Critical Vulnerabilities (Must Address) | Vulnerability | Risk | Mitigation | |---------------|------|-----------| | [vulnerability] | [risk level] | [how to fix] | ### High-Priority Concerns | Concern | Recommendation | |---------|----------------| | [concern] | [recommendation] | --- ## Hardening Recommendations **Immediate actions**: 1. [Action 1] 2. [Action 2] **Ongoing monitoring**: 1. [What to watch] --- **Bottom Line** > [Is this plan/system ready? What must change?] ## Guidelines - Be adversarial, not just critical - Think creatively—real attackers don't follow rules - Look for cascading failures - The goal is to make it stronger, not just find flaws $ARGUMENTS
