identity-lifecycle-administration

identity-lifecycle-administration is a skill for Claude Code from cbrock84/headcount. It costs 74 tokens per session (729 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of procedures for changing a person's access as they join, change roles, or leave an organization. It covers account creation, group membership, permission changes, and complete account removal.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to provision role-based access, update permissions during transfers, remove access for leavers, review group membership, and find accounts with no current owner.
Why use it?
It prevents former or old-role access from accumulating and reduces the risk of accounts remaining active after their owners leave.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: shipped in a Claude Code plugin.

Part of the it-operations plugin — 12 skills shipped together

About the project

headcount is an organization of independently installable Claude Code plugins, each grouping skills for a department such as finance, security, or demand generation. Claude Code users install the departments they need and invoke their skills for specialized work; the catalogue entries are skills and related agent tooling from that organization.

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

identity-lifecycle-administration 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 2d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 73 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Identity lifecycle administration

This is execution: creating, changing and removing access as people arrive, move and leave. Policy — what a role should be entitled to, and least privilege — belongs to security:access-and-identity. This skill runs the process that policy defines, and the gap between the two is where most access problems live.

Joiners

Provision from the role, not by copying a colleague. Copying is the single largest source of privilege accumulation: it inherits everything that person collected, including access they should not have had, and it propagates that indefinitely.

Define role-based bundles for the common cases so a standard joiner is one action, and treat anything outside them as an exception requiring approval. Exceptions are fine; unrecorded exceptions are not.

Time provisioning to be complete before the start date — coordinated through people:onboarding-and-offboarding.

Movers are the neglected case

Leavers get attention because someone is going. Movers do not, and so access accrues: the person who has worked in three departments has permissions from all three, and nobody ever removed the first two.

Treat a role change as a revoke and re-provision, not an addition. This is the single highest- value fix available in most organizations, and it is almost always skipped because the person is still present and nothing appears broken.

Leavers, completely

Disable promptly at the agreed time, then work a checklist that reaches past the directory: systems outside single sign-on, local accounts, shared credentials the person knew, API keys and tokens they created, external services procured on a personal login, and any mail or calendar delegation.

The gap is almost always the systems identity management does not reach. Maintain the list of them explicitly rather than discovering it during an audit.

Preserve rather than delete where there is any prospect of investigation or legal hold — deletion is irreversible and occasionally very expensive.

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.
