Consolidate 22 sibling repos into layered organism structure
Place useful parts of the surrounding repos into sica-fondt by layer, per the
body model (Ada = membrane; brain/endocrine/capabilities/knowledge non-Ada):

- brain/        LLM reasoning + providers (dapr, hermes, MoMoA)
- capabilities/ REPRAG sidecars: hermes tools/skills, dapr tools, parallel
                dispatch, A51 channels, and the OSINT cluster
- knowledge/    LORAG corpus: 754 cyber-skills, agency personas, secure-coding,
                MITRE ATT&CK data
- reference/    defensive threat-reference (C3, shhbruh doc) + AdaYaml parser

License handling: AGPL sources (worldosint, advanced_evolution, mercury,
Reticulum) and GPL DeTTECT are SPEC-only clean-room/port descriptions — no
copyleft code copied. MIT/Apache/data parts copied as working trees.

Safety: shhbruh escape/persistence material and C3 covert-C2 kept as reference
only, not wired into the running organism. See CONSOLIDATION.md.

Implementing Container Network Policies with Calico

Overview

Calico provides Kubernetes-native and extended network policy enforcement through its CNI plugin. This skill covers creating and auditing Calico NetworkPolicy and GlobalNetworkPolicy resources to implement pod-to-pod traffic control, namespace isolation, egress restrictions, and DNS-based policy rules using calicoctl and the Kubernetes API.

When to Use

  • When deploying or configuring implementing container network policies with calico capabilities in your environment
  • When establishing security controls aligned to compliance requirements
  • When building or improving security architecture for this domain
  • When conducting security assessments that require this implementation

Prerequisites

  • Kubernetes cluster with Calico CNI installed
  • Python 3.9+ with kubernetes client library
  • calicoctl CLI tool installed and configured
  • kubectl access with RBAC permissions for network policy management

Steps

Step 1: Audit Existing Network Policies

Use calicoctl and kubectl to inventory current network policies and identify unprotected namespaces.

Step 2: Implement Default-Deny Policies

Create default-deny ingress and egress policies per namespace as a zero-trust baseline.

Step 3: Create Workload-Specific Allow Rules

Define granular allow rules for legitimate pod-to-pod and pod-to-service communication.

Step 4: Validate Policy Enforcement

Test connectivity between pods to verify policies are correctly enforced.

Expected Output

JSON audit report listing all network policies, unprotected namespaces, policy rule counts, and connectivity test results.
