What it does

This is a specialist add-on for a CTF (capture-the-flag security competition) sandbox orchestrator. Once the parent skill has set up the sandbox rules, this one guides the agent through analysing Kerberos delegation settings in a Windows-style test network: which delegation path exists, which ticket is requested, and which service actually accepts it. The agent is told to write out a replayable chain of steps and to separate ticket possession from proven privilege. It is written as an internal downstream component and replies in Simplified Chinese by default.

Great for

  • Competitors practising Active Directory and Kerberos attack paths in authorised CTF sandboxes
  • Security students learning how constrained, unconstrained and resource-based delegation work

Skip it if

  • Real corporate or production networks, because the skill assumes an authorised sandbox and could be misused to attack systems without permission
  • Users who have not first set up the parent ctf-sandbox-orchestrator skill, since it says it should only run after that skill has routed to it

Try asking

  • “Explain how a constrained delegation S4U chain in this sandbox leads to a service ticket being accepted”
  • “Compare unconstrained delegation and resource-based constrained delegation for the sandbox domain”
  • “Help me build a compact evidence block of SPNs, delegation mode and encryption type for this challenge”

  3. 3

    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

  • Load the parent orchestrator first, as the skill instructs, so sandbox assumptions are set before this one applies
  • Ask for one minimal delegation chain at a time rather than a broad sweep of the domain
  • Keep the evidence block (SPN, delegation mode, encryption type, accepting service) with every privilege claim
