About ti-ingest
ti-ingest turns threat-intelligence signals into queued scope rows for downstream exploitability validation. Analysts or scheduled polling jobs can use it to enrich CVEs with NVD data, deduplicate entries, and retain the original signal; it does not run PoCs.
Key features
- 01Reads and validates signal payloads
- 02Adds NVD data for CVEs
- 03Deduplicates asset-CVE pairs
- 04Writes validation scope rows
- 05Retains raw signals for audit
Use cases
- 01Queue an analyst's signal for validation
- 02Process signal files on a schedule
- 03Prevent duplicate asset-CVE entries
- 04Flag assets missing from the inventory

Details
From the project READMEThreat-Intel Signal Ingest
Convert a threat-intel signal into a queued engagement-scope row that the Exploitability Validation Run (cloud-agent task #3) consumes.
Trigger
Two modes:
- Prompt-invoked: an analyst runs the skill against a
signal.jsonthey have on hand. - Scheduled poll: the cloud-agent runtime polls
{OUTPUT_DIR}/inbox/on a cron (default every 15 minutes) and processes any new signal files it finds.
Workflow
- Read the payload —
tools/ti-ingest.py --in <path-or-stdin>. - Validate schema — required keys:
signal_id,cve(one or more),assets(one or more),claim. Optional:confidence,source,references. - Enrich with NVD — for every CVE in the payload, run
tools/nvd-lookup.py <CVE>and attach{score, severity, cwe}to the row. - De-dup — skip rows whose
(asset, cve)pair already exists inqueue/scope-*.json. Re-queue only if the prior row's status isREJECTEDAND the TI signal carries a higherconfidencethan the last attempt. - Write queue row — one JSON file per
(asset, cve)pair atqueue/scope-{ts}-{asset_id}-{cve}.json. The Validation Run task picks these up.
Output
{OUTPUT_DIR}/
inbox/
signal-{ts}.json # raw payload, kept for audit
queue/
scope-{ts}-{asset}-{cve}.json
Per scope row:
{
"scope_id": "scope-20260513-asset42-CVE-2024-12345",
"signal_id": "ti-2026-0042",
"asset": {"id": "asset42", "url": "https://app.example.com", "tier": "revenue"},
"cve": "CVE-2024-12345",
"nvd": {"score": 9.8, "severity": "CRITICAL", "cwe": "CWE-79"},
"claim": "Reflected XSS via search parameter",
"confidence": "high",
"source": "vendor-advisory",
"references": ["https://..."],
"queued_at": "2026-05-13T10:00:00Z",
"status": "queued"
}
Rules
- Idempotent. Re-running on the same payload must not produce duplicate queue rows.
- No execution. Ingest never runs PoCs. It only queues scope for downstream tasks.
- Audit trail. Raw payload is always copied to
inbox/before any transformation. - NVD failures are non-blocking. If
nvd-lookuperrors, write the row withnvd: nullandnvd_error: "..."; do not drop the signal. - Asset must be in inventory. Cross-check
asset.idagainstartifacts/org-surface.json(from Org Recon Refresh task). Unknown assets get a row but flaggedunknown_asset: trueso the validator skips them.
