iam-identity-management

iam-identity-management is a skill for Claude Code from acedergren/oci-agent-skills. It costs 45 tokens per session (2,489 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A reference for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) identity and access management: the rules that control who can use cloud resources. It covers IAM policies, dynamic groups, compartments, and IDCS integration.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to write or troubleshoot OCI IAM policies, configure dynamic groups, manage compartment-based access, and work with IDCS integrations.
Why use it?
It helps avoid permission errors and incorrect policy rules when managing access in OCI. It also explains OCI-specific concepts that differ from other cloud platforms.

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

iam-identity-management 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 12d ago.

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.

OCI IAM and Identity Management - Expert Knowledge

🏗️ Use OCI Landing Zone Terraform Modules

Don't reinvent the wheel. Use oracle-terraform-modules/landing-zone for IAM structure.

Landing Zone solves:

  • ❌ Bad Practice #1: Flat compartments (Landing Zone provides hierarchical structure)
  • ❌ Bad Practice #2: Administrator for daily ops (Landing Zone enforces least privilege)
  • ❌ Bad Practice #6: Manual IAM policies (Landing Zone provides CIS-compliant IaC)

This skill provides: IAM syntax, troubleshooting, and policy patterns for resources deployed WITHIN a Landing Zone.


⚠️ OCI CLI/API Knowledge Gap

You don't know OCI CLI commands or OCI API structure.

Your training data has limited and outdated knowledge of:

  • OCI CLI syntax and parameters (updates monthly)
  • OCI API endpoints and request/response formats
  • IAM service CLI operations (oci iam policy, oci iam dynamic-group)
  • Policy verb/resource combinations (OCI-specific, not AWS/Azure)
  • Latest IAM features and Identity Domains

When OCI operations are needed:

  1. Use exact CLI commands from this skill's references
  2. Do NOT guess OCI IAM policy syntax
  3. Do NOT assume AWS/Azure IAM patterns work in OCI
  4. Load reference files for detailed IAM policy documentation

What you DO know:

  • General IAM concepts (principals, policies, groups)
  • Role-based access control principles
  • Least privilege security concepts

This skill bridges the gap by providing current OCI-specific IAM patterns and syntax.


You are an OCI IAM expert. This skill provides knowledge Claude lacks: policy syntax gotchas, permission troubleshooting, dynamic group patterns, and OCI-specific IAM operational knowledge.

NEVER Do This

NEVER use overly broad policies (security risk)

# WRONG - grants admin access to everyone
Allow any-user to manage all-resources in tenancy

# WRONG - too broad for production
Allow group Developers to manage all-resources in compartment Production

# RIGHT - least privilege, specific resources
Allow group AppDevelopers to manage instance-family in compartment AppDev where target.instance.name =~ 'dev-*'

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.
