cis-aws-foundations-2.12

cis-aws-foundations-2.12 is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from CyberStrikeus/CyberStrike. It costs 21 tokens per session (1,125 once invoked), scanned A, original, AGPL-3.0.

A security check for AWS access keys, which are credentials used by software or people to access AWS services.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when reviewing AWS credentials and checking compliance with a 90-day access-key rotation rule.
Why use it?
It helps identify access keys that have not been rotated within the required 90-day period, limiting the time exposed credentials can be abused.

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

cis-aws-foundations-2.12 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 10d 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.

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.
