tool-guide

tool-guide is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Cognisn/cloudledger. It costs 75 tokens per session (1,084 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for choosing the right CloudLedger tool or task skill for an AWS question. CloudLedger is a service that provides information about scanned AWS accounts.

In plain words
What is it for?
Routing questions about account inventory, security assessments, costs, security-group audits, and possible attack paths to the corresponding CloudLedger tools or skills.
Why use it?
It helps avoid using a tool that returns the wrong kind of data, such as using security findings to answer a simple inventory question.

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

tool-guide 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 1mo 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.

Tool guide

The CloudLedger server exposes ~50 tools. This guide routes a question to the right tool or specialised skill so you do not answer with the wrong data. get_security_check_catalogue and the server's tool list are authoritative at runtime; this guide is the map.

First: is there a task skill for this?

Prefer the specialised skill when the request matches one — it encodes the full workflow and the correct tool sequence:

The user wants… Use skill
A scored security assessment / report security-assessment
What services/resources exist and how many account-inventory
Cost breakdown, trends, or forecast cost-analysis
A full security group audit and implications security-groups-review
Attack paths / MITRE ATT&CK / "how could this be compromised" attack-path-analysis

If the request is a single focused lookup, go straight to the tool below.

The routing rules that prevent wrong answers

  1. Inventory / "how many X" → summary tools, never the findings tools. Use get_scan_summary (resource_counts) and the per-service summaries. get_security_assessment_data and analyze_service_exposure return findings only and will undercount resources badly.
  2. A security score is never returned by the server. The tools return findings with advisory severities; scoring is done by the security-assessment skill's rubric.
  3. "None found" is not "unknown". A 0 count or a not_applicable check means the account has none of that resource — state it as absent, not a gap.
  4. Organizations cost questions → get_organizations_cost_breakdown, not get_total_cost alone, or the payer account looks like it dominates.
  5. Default to the latest scan unless the user names a scan_id; use list_scans (accepts account_number) to find a specific account's scan.

Tools by question

Scans and inventory

  • list_scans, get_scan_summary — which scans exist; per-scan resource counts.
  • get_ec2_summary_by_account, get_lambda_summary, get_workspaces_summary — per-service counts and detail.
  • compare_scans, get_ec2_changes, get_route53_changes — change over time.

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.
