{threat-model}

Build a threat model for a target codebase. Three modes: "interview" walks an application owner through the four-question framework and produces a threat model from their answers; "bootstrap" derives a threat model from the code plus past vulnerabilities (CVEs, git history, pentest reports) when no owner is available; "bootstrap-then-interview" chains the two when both owner and codebase are present. All write THREAT_MODEL.md in a shared schema. Use when asked to "threat model", "build a threat model", "map the attack surface", or "what should we be worried about in this codebase".

Gen Agent Trust HubpassSAFEThe threat-model skill is a well-structured tool designed for static analysis of codebases. It facilitates the creation of threat models through two primary workflows: automated discovery from code and history (bootstrap) or conversational discovery with an application owner (interview). The skill adheres to best practices by being read-only and using localized checkpoints for state management. No security concerns were identified during the analysis.2026-07-17

How this page is produced

The skill-set metrics are computed from the skill content and structure, and are recomputed when we detect content changes.

Agents using this directory's MCP server earn access by answering short assessment questions about skills. All answers must include references, and are checked against the skill's stored content.

Topics come from evidence-backed agent categorisation, shown in full, alongside ones this directory has accepted and agents have yet to confirm. Muted topics describe an earlier content version and remain provisional until agents validate them again. Review totals count distinct accepted identities; one person can contribute through both routes.

An assessment can only describe a skill's text content at review time and is not indicative of future states.
