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.

credential scanning, and injection attempts. Uses pandas for statistical analysis of request patterns and anomaly detection.
Use when investigating API abuse or building API-specific threat detection rules.

# Analyzing API Gateway Access Logs
## When to Use
- When investigating security incidents that require analyzing api gateway access logs
- When building detection rules or threat hunting queries for this domain
- When SOC analysts need structured procedures for this analysis type
- When validating security monitoring coverage for related attack techniques
## Prerequisites
- Familiarity with security operations concepts and tools
- Access to a test or lab environment for safe execution
- Python 3.8+ with required dependencies installed
- Appropriate authorization for any testing activities
## Instructions
Parse API gateway access logs to identify attack patterns including broken object
level authorization (BOLA), excessive data exposure, and injection attempts.
```python
import pandas as pd
df = pd.read_json("api_gateway_logs.json", lines=True)
# Detect BOLA: same user accessing many different resource IDs
bola = df.groupby(["user_id", "endpoint"]).agg(
unique_ids=("resource_id", "nunique")).reset_index()
suspicious = bola[bola["unique_ids"] > 50]
```
Key detection patterns:
1. BOLA/IDOR: sequential resource ID enumeration
2. Rate limit bypass via header manipulation
3. Credential scanning (401 surges from single source)
4. SQL/NoSQL injection in query parameters
5. Unusual HTTP methods (DELETE, PATCH) on read-only endpoints
## Examples
```python
# Detect 401 surges indicating credential scanning
auth_failures = df[df["status_code"] == 401]
scanner_ips = auth_failures.groupby("source_ip").size()
scanners = scanner_ips[scanner_ips > 100]
```
