ChatGPT · Claude · Gemini
IPv6 Connectivity Troubleshooter
Prompt · Troubleshooting
IPv6 diagnostic assistant that starts where the fault actually divides: SLAAC, DHCPv6 or static. Covers Router Advertisement flags, Neighbor Discovery, source address selection per RFC 6724, the default route that arrives in an RA, and the ICMPv6 filtering that breaks IPv6 outright instead of degrading it. Cisco IOS/IOS-XE, IOS XR, NX-OS, Juniper JunOS, Arista EOS, Palo Alto PAN-OS and Fortinet FortiOS.
ChatGPT · Claude · Gemini
Log Triage Analyst
Prompt · Security
Paste raw logs — syslog, Windows events, firewall, proxy, auth, cloud audit — and get a structured triage: what the events actually say, a UTC timeline, the benign explanation checked before the malicious one, and the specific next query. Built to say "this is normal" when it is.
ChatGPT · Claude · Gemini
Network Device Hardening Review
Prompt · Security
CCIE Security / CIS Benchmark expert-level hardening review. Analyzes your device configuration across management plane (SSH, AAA, TACACS+), control plane (CoPP, BFD), and data plane (uRPF, DHCP snooping, DAI). Covers Cisco IOS/IOS-XE/IOS-XR/NX-OS, Palo Alto PAN-OS, Fortinet FortiOS, Juniper Junos, and Arista EOS against CIS benchmarks, NIST 800-53, PCI-DSS, and ISO 27001.

Prompt · Troubleshooting
Paste your OSPF show output and get a diagnosis of neighbor issues, adjacency failures, and routing problems. Works with Cisco IOS, NX-OS, Juniper, and Arista.
ChatGPT · Claude · Gemini
Packet Capture Root Cause Analysis
Prompt · Troubleshooting
Turn a capture into a root cause that another engineer can check. Qualifies what the capture point can prove before analysing anything, works from who stopped talking first, cites a frame number for every claim, and reports what it could not determine as part of the answer.
ChatGPT · Claude · Gemini
Penetration Testing Methodology Guide
Prompt · Security
Senior penetration tester (OSCP/CEH/CPTS) methodology guide for authorized assessments. Structured across 7 phases: reconnaissance, scanning, vulnerability assessment, exploitation, post-exploitation, lateral movement, and reporting. For authorized engagements only.
ChatGPT · Claude · Gemini
Post-Quantum Risk Assessment
Prompt · Security
Assesses a system's exposure to post-quantum cryptographic risk using Mosca's inequality — confidentiality lifetime plus migration time against the arrival of a cryptographically relevant quantum computer. Separates key exchange (vulnerable to harvest now, decrypt later) from signatures (which are not), demands evidence of library, version and protocol before concluding, and targets hybrid key exchange rather than pure PQC because hybrid is what actually deploys today.
ChatGPT · Claude · Gemini
SIEM Query Translator & Builder
Prompt · Security
Describe what you want to find in plain English, or paste a query from one SIEM, and get the working equivalent in Splunk SPL, Microsoft Sentinel KQL, Elastic ES|QL/KQL, QRadar AQL or Chronicle UDM — with the field-mapping differences and the performance traps named rather than silently glossed over.
ChatGPT · Claude · Gemini
Sigma Detection Rule Builder
Prompt · Security
Turn an attacker technique, an IOC, or a description of suspicious behaviour into a valid Sigma rule with correct logsource, realistic field names, a false-positive section and a tuning plan. Backend-agnostic, so the same rule converts to Splunk SPL, Microsoft Sentinel KQL, Elastic and QRadar.
ChatGPT · Claude · Gemini
Network Technology Explainer
Prompt · Learning
Get a clear, level-appropriate explanation of any networking or security technology — from basic to expert. Great for learning a new protocol, preparing for a cert exam, or explaining something to your team.
ChatGPT · Claude · Gemini
TLS Configuration Review
Prompt · Security
Reviews the TLS configuration you paste — cipher suites, protocol versions, curves, OCSP stapling, HSTS, mTLS, session resumption and 0-RTT — against RFC 9325 (BCP 195), RFC 8446 and NIST SP 800-52r2. Starts from the defect that sinks most carefully hardened configurations: TLS 1.3 and TLS 1.2 select suites through different mechanisms, so a meticulous cipher list never touches 1.3. Covers hybrid post-quantum key exchange (X25519MLKEM768) as a setting available today, and always separates what it verified from what it could not see in the text.
ChatGPT · Claude · Gemini
VPN Architecture Design Advisor
