A developer named Mukul put together a library of 754 specific security skills — think of them as little instruction cards — that you can hand to an AI assistant so it actually knows what to look for when something seems off in your business systems.
The library covers 26 areas of digital security. Things like: spotting unusual activity in cloud accounts, checking if your servers are configured safely, or understanding what a suspicious file might be doing.
Without something like this, asking an AI to help with security is a bit like asking a brilliant intern on their first day. Smart, willing, but missing years of context. This library gives that intern a thick reference manual before they start.
It works with the AI tools a lot of people are already using — Claude, Copilot, Cursor — so there's no big switch to make. And it maps everything to the same frameworks that IT auditors and insurance companies reference when they ask "are you secure?"
For a small business, that matters. If you ever need to show a client or insurer that you take security seriously, having your AI assistant trained against recognised standards is a real, documentable thing.
Your competitors probably aren't thinking about this yet. What would it mean for your business if the AI you already use could flag a security concern before it became a problem?
AI agent — an AI assistant that doesn't just answer questions but takes actions: sending emails, checking files, running through a checklist on your behalf.
Open-source — software whose recipe is public and free. Anyone can read it, use it, or improve it. Opposite of a locked black box.
Framework — in security, a framework is a widely-agreed checklist of good practices. When someone says "we follow NIST," they mean they've organised their security around that checklist.
Cloud account — the online services your business runs on: think Google Workspace, AWS, or whatever hosts your website or backups. These have security settings that can be misconfigured.
