cis-aws-foundations-2.7

cis-aws-foundations-2.7 is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from CyberStrikeus/CyberStrike. It costs 24 tokens per session (1,146 once invoked), scanned A, original, AGPL-3.0.

An AWS security check that verifies the root account is not used for administration or everyday work. The root account has unrestricted control over an AWS account.

In plain words
What is it for?
It audits AWS usage for administrative or daily activity performed with the root account.
Why use it?
It limits exposure of the account's highest-privilege identity and encourages safer user or role-based administration.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

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-2.7 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.
