Velen CLI 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/velen-cli/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when the user wants to inspect company or customer data that lives behind Velen, resolve org or source context, validate or execute ad hoc read-only SQL against a Velen-connected source, or inspect published insights. Do not use for local databases, direct credentials, or write operations that bypass Velen access controls.
The Velen CLI skill is built for security engineers, penetration testers, DevSecOps practitioners, and development teams hardening codebases and infrastructure. It is part of the open ClaudSkills registry, a community-curated catalog of 56,000+ capabilities you can install for Claude Code — the Claude CLI agent.
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills/velen-cli curl -L https://claudskills.com/skills/velen-cli/SKILL.md \ -o ~/.claude/skills/velen-cli/SKILL.md
Or just download SKILL.md directly and drop it into ~/.claude/skills/velen-cli/. Claude Code auto-discovers it on next session.
Skills live at ~/.claude/skills/velen-cli/SKILL.md on macOS/Linux, or %USERPROFILE%\.claude\skills\velen-cli\SKILL.md on Windows. See the full install guide for step-by-step instructions.
The ClaudSkills desktop app installs any skill directly into ~/.claude/skills/ with one click — no terminal required. Pro starts at $9/mo or $149 lifetime.
For the full experience including quality scoring and one-click install features for each skill — upgrade to Pro.
