generate-attack-vector

Purpose

Generate a concrete executable attack or probe against a chosen threat surface.

Input contract

required: [threat_surface, target, attack_constraints]
optional: [access_level, prior_findings]
constraints: [attack must identify trigger, observable, and failure condition]

Procedure

1. Select an exposed surface and attack objective. 2. Specify trigger, steps, observables, and failure interpretation. 3. Rank priority by information value and severity.

Output contract

produces: [attack_vector, trigger, observable, failure_condition, priority]
delta_fields: [findings, uncertainties, decisions]

Quality gates

• Vector must be executable within declared authority and scope.

Failure and counterexamples

Do not call a hypothetical weakness an attack result until executed.
