greenlight — refusal handling skill for vulnerability research evals
What this is
Using the greenlight skill, you'd be able to autonomously handle Opus 4.7's refusals in security research-type evals. It was created for benchmarking purposes, mapping out where Claude Code's guardrails trigger exploitation-related refusals, and where they can't be relied upon.
While validated only on Opus 4.7, the methodology should generalize to other models, but every model requires its own re-validation. Remember: this is a proof of concept, not rigorous research. Specifically, if your bench distribution differs from this one (different model, different target class, uniform rather than bimodal re-roll), re-validate before considering the retry-cap recommendation.

Who it's for
You are doing authorized AI-safety / security refusal research in cyber security, and are building a harness that runs Claude (via `claude-agent-sdk` or the Claude Code CLI), for purposes such as CVE reproductions, hardened-service testing, vulnerability-class benchmarks, exploitation capability measurements, and similar, and you are hitting one of these:
- Sessions fail with
Exception("Command failed with exit code 1")and you can't tell if it was a transport flake, a rate-limit, or a content-policy refusal. - Your bench retries refused sessions blindly and wastes tokens on identical re-runs.
Where to start
| If you are… | Start at… |
|---|---|
| A researcher / harness author wanting the validated minimal skill (high evidence bar) | SKILL.md (v3 canonical) |
| A researcher / harness author wanting a richer skill at lower evidence bar (varied capabilities) | SKILL-v5.md |
| A researcher wanting to build your own skill section-by-section (template) | SKILL-modular.md |
Installation
