huawei-cloud-ascend-remote-connect

huawei-cloud-ascend-remote-connect is a skill for Claude Code from huaweicloud/huaweicloud-skills. It costs 115 tokens per session (3,885 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A temporary SSH connection and administration guide for Huawei Cloud Ascend machines. SSH is a way to securely run commands on another computer over a network.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to connect to one or more Ascend machines, inspect disks and NPUs, manage containers, review logs, run commands, and perform security checks.
Why use it?
Managing remote AI servers requires connection details, monitoring, containers, disks, and logs, while sensitive actions need care. This keeps connection credentials in memory and asks for confirmation before changing or deleting things.

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 B, and why

huawei-cloud-ascend-remote-connect scanned grade B with 2 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 12d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 6 executable files (scripts/__init__.py, scripts/command_validator.py, scripts/executor.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Asks for rootlowPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

2. **Limit Permissions**: Grant minimum sudo privileges needed

Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.

Recursive force deletemediumDestructive command

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

- Sensitive: Require confirmation (e.g., rm -rf, reboot)

Huawei Cloud Ascend Remote Connection

Overview

Provides temporary SSH remote connection capability for Huawei Cloud Ascend devices. Supports simultaneous connection to multiple machines. All sensitive operations (delete, modify, move, etc.) require user confirmation before execution. Passwords are only stored in memory and destroyed after session ends.
