guards-and-wards

guards-and-wards is a Blue team & detection skill for AI agents, published by Hmbown in the Wizards-of-the-Ghosts repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates guards-and-wards C (77/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.

In D&D, Guards and Wards fills an area with layered minor defenses — fog, locked doors, illusory walls, confusion effects — that individually are trivial but collectively make navigation exhausting. The real-world version is defense in depth through volume: honeypots mixed with real services, rotating credentials alongside decoy credentials, overlapping rate limiters and CAPTCHAs and behavioral analysis and IP reputation checks. No single ward stops a determined attacker. The maze does.
