Two knowledge bases: - Part A - BEAM secure coding + deployment hardening (EEF Security WG, security.erlef.org). Code-level, directly actionable. - Part B - NSA Zero Trust Implementation Guidelines (ZIG). Published Jan 2026, after model training cutoffs.
Beam Security Hardening is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the security-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/beam-security-hardening/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when writing or reviewing code that parses untrusted input, deserializes terms, shells out, handles secrets, compares tokens, parses XML, or makes TLS connections; when adding LiveView routes, live_session, on_mount hooks, or authorization in mount/handle_event; when hardening releases, Erlang distribution, EPMD, or crash dumps; or when asked about the NSA Zero Trust Implementation Guidelines (ZIG), pillars, capabilities, activities, or technology mappings.
The Beam Security Hardening Claude Code skill is built for security engineers, penetration testers, DevSecOps practitioners, and development teams hardening codebases and infrastructure. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 153,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).

SKILL.md from the source repository to ~/.claude/skills/beam-security-hardening/SKILL.md and restart Claude Code. Both flows are detailed at claudskills.com/install/.SKILL.md file that lives under ~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. Beam Security Hardening is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the Security category.
