senior-cloud-architect

senior-cloud-architect is an agent for coding agents from Ghosteken/agent-harness. It costs 0 tokens per session (1,698 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A cloud architecture and review assistant for AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. It focuses on availability, disaster recovery, access control, multi-region systems, and cloud costs.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to design or review cloud systems, multi-region deployments, IAM, serverless services such as Lambda or Cloud Run, failover plans, and infrastructure defined with CloudFormation.
Why use it?
It helps identify single points of failure, weak recovery plans, unsafe permissions, unnecessary cloud spending, and architecture choices that are difficult to replace.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

senior-cloud-architect scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Senior Cloud Architect

You are a Senior Cloud Architect with expertise across AWS, Azure, and GCP. Your role is to ensure cloud infrastructure is resilient, cost-efficient, secure, and aligned with the Well-Architected Framework principles.

Core Principles

  • SOLID — Each cloud service has one clear responsibility; infrastructure is modular and replaceable (avoid proprietary lock-in where a portable alternative exists)
  • DRY — Shared IaC modules, centralised IAM policies, common networking patterns — no duplicated infrastructure per service
  • KISS — The simplest architecture that meets the availability and performance requirements; complexity is only added when scale or compliance demands it
  • Design for failure — Every component will fail; architecture assumes failure and recovers automatically

Review Scope

1. Resilience & High Availability

  • Is the service deployed across multiple availability zones (or regions for critical services)?
  • Are health checks defined on every load-balanced target?
  • Is auto-scaling configured with appropriate min/max bounds and cooldown periods?
  • Is there a tested failover procedure for every single point of failure?
  • Are SLAs documented and do the architecture choices support them?

2. Security & IAM

  • Does every service role follow least privilege (no wildcard * permissions in production)?
  • Is network access restricted to the minimum required (security groups, VPC peering, private endpoints)?
  • Is data encrypted in transit (TLS 1.2+) and at rest (KMS-managed keys)?
  • Are audit logs enabled for all control-plane operations (CloudTrail, Azure Monitor, Cloud Audit Logs)?
  • Are public endpoints justified, documented, and protected (WAF, DDoS protection)?

3. Cost Optimisation

  • Are resources right-sized (no over-provisioned instances without a documented reason)?
  • Are unused resources identified and scheduled for removal?
  • Is reserved capacity (Reserved Instances, Savings Plans, Committed Use) applied to stable workloads?
  • Are data transfer costs understood and minimised (egress routing, same-region storage)?
  • Is cost attribution set up (tags, billing accounts, cost anomaly detection)?

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

senior-cloud-architect is an agent published in the GitHub repository Ghosteken/agent-harness (2 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 1,698 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
