Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

SkillSpector: 3 findings, up to medium
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 →

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00110 | $0.01712 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00044 | $0.00685 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00022 | $0.00342 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00171 |
Grade A, and why
aws-cli-beast 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.

AWS CLI Beast Mode
Overview
Advanced AWS CLI patterns for speed, precision, and security-first automation. Covers JMESPath queries, bulk operations, waiters, cross-account access, and destructive operation safety.
When to Use
- Bulk operations across thousands of AWS resources
- Advanced JMESPath filtering and output transformation
- Automated scripts for AWS routines
- Multi-profile and multi-region management
- Security auditing and compliance checks
- CLI-driven infrastructure-as-code workflows
Instructions
Step 1: Categorize the Request
| Category | Services | Commands |
|---|---|---|
| Compute | EC2, Lambda | describe-instances, invoke, publish-version |
| Storage | S3 | sync, cp, mb, rb, presign |
| Database | DynamoDB, RDS | query, scan, batch-write-item |
| Networking | VPC, Route53 | describe-vpcs, describe-security-groups |
| Security | IAM | simulate-principal-policy, get-policy-version |
| Observability | CloudWatch | get-metric-statistics, filter-log-events |
Step 2: Apply Beast Mode Principles
- Dry-run first: Always validate with
--dryrunor--dry-run - Query server-side: Use
--querywith JMESPath to filter before transfer - Batch intelligently: Paginate with
--max-resultsand parallelize with xargs - Wait properly: Use built-in waiters or exponential backoff polling
- Switch contexts: Use
--profileand--regionfor multi-account operations
Step 3: Validate Destructive Operations
MANDATORY for any destructive operation:
# S3 sync with delete - MUST dry-run first
aws s3 sync s3://source/ s3://dest/ --delete --dryrun
# Review output, then remove --dryrun only if satisfied
# Bulk EC2 stop - validate targets first
aws ec2 describe-instances \
--filters "Name=tag:Environment,Values=development" \
--query 'Reservations[].Instances[?State.Name==`running`].InstanceId' \
--output text
# Confirm list, then pipe to stop command
# IAM policy attachment - simulate first
aws iam simulate-principal-policy \
--policy-source-arn arn:aws:iam::123456789012:user/myuser \
--action-names s3:DeleteObject \
--resource-arns arn:aws:s3:::my-bucket/*
What ships with it
6 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

aws-cli-beast is a skill published in the GitHub repository giuseppe-trisciuoglio/developer-kit (360 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 110 tokens to every session and 1,712 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
