linux-hardening
70 / 100 · Review before installing
Check before installing. Some of what it can do is expected: a devops skill usually runs commands, installs tools and uses cloud credentials.
Apply CIS benchmarks and secure Linux servers. Configure SSH, manage users, implement firewall rules, and enable security features. Use when hardening Linux systems for production or meeting security compliance requirements.

Install
Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.
if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'linux-hardening' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'linux-hardening' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named linux-hardening already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/BagelHole/DevOps-Security-Agent-Skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '0365f57a079b1332f95cf26e31dd2d5332a8399f' -- 'security/hardening/linux-hardening' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'security/hardening/linux-hardening' ~/.agents/skills/'linux-hardening' && rm -rf "$d"; fi
Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'linux-hardening' ~/.claude/skills/'linux-hardening' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
