Metapowers

Storage

How Security artifacts are organized in the .metapowers/ directory.

Directory Structure

All Security artifacts are stored in your project's .metapowers/security/ directory, organized by topic:

.metapowers/security/<topic>/
  00-govern.md                 ← Security policies, risk appetite, roles
  01-identify.md               ← Asset inventory, threats, vulnerabilities
  02-protect.md                ← Secure coding, access controls, encryption
  03-detect.md                 ← Monitoring, logging, anomaly detection
  04-respond.md                ← Incident response, forensics, communication
  05-recover.md                ← Recovery plans, backups, business continuity
  security-checklist.md        ← Project security checklists
  threat-intel.md              ← Threat intelligence research
  compliance-map.md            ← Control-to-framework mappings
  security-training.md         ← Training materials
  pentest-plan.md              ← Penetration test plans
  skip-log.md                  ← Prerequisite bypass log

File Naming Convention

Security phase artifacts use a numbered prefix pattern (00- through 05-) corresponding to each phase of the NIST CSF 2.0 lifecycle. Utility files use descriptive names without numbered prefixes and serve as reusable reference documents across security engagements.

Accessing Artifacts

To find Security artifacts from other domains:

  1. List available topics: check directories under .metapowers/security/
  2. Read a specific phase artifact: .metapowers/security/<topic>/02-protect.md
  3. Protection controls in 02-protect.md and incident response plans in 04-respond.md are the most commonly referenced artifacts
  4. The compliance-map.md contains control mappings that can be reused across compliance efforts
