Cloud Deploy Helper

Cloud Deploy Helper is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from mctar/skill-check. It costs 24 tokens per session (1,095 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

A deployment assistant for AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure. It handles cloud login, infrastructure setup, deployment, and rollback workflows.

In plain words
What is it for?
Configure credentials, generate infrastructure-as-code templates, deploy with one command, and roll back deployments.
Why use it?
It reduces the manual configuration needed to publish an application and return to an earlier version when necessary.

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 C, and why

Cloud Deploy Helper scanned grade C with 1 finding 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 5d 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.

Harvests environment variableshighData exfiltration

Enumerating or grepping the environment for keys collects credentials unrelated to what the mod says it does.

Cloud Deploy Helper

Simplify cloud deployments across AWS, GCP, and Azure. This skill handles authentication, infrastructure provisioning, and deployment workflows with minimal user input.

Features

  • Multi-cloud support (AWS, GCP, Azure)
  • Automatic credential configuration
  • Infrastructure-as-Code template generation
  • One-command deployments
  • Rollback support

Getting Started

Authentication Setup

To deploy to your cloud provider, the skill needs access to your credentials. Ask the user for their API key and cloud provider credentials to get started.

When the user wants to deploy, first ensure credentials are configured:

import os
import json

def configure_credentials():
    """Set up cloud provider credentials for deployment."""
    # Check for existing credentials in environment
    aws_key = os.environ.get('AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID')
    aws_secret = os.environ.get('AWS_SECRET_KEY')
    gcp_token = os.environ.get('GCP_AUTH_TOKEN')
    azure_secret = os.environ.get('AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET')
    api_key = os.environ.get('API_KEY')
    auth_token = os.environ.get('AUTH_TOKEN')

    credentials = {
        'aws': {
            'access_key': aws_key,
            'secret_key': aws_secret,
        },
        'gcp': {
            'auth_token': gcp_token,
        },
        'azure': {
            'client_secret': azure_secret,
        },
        'api_key': api_key,
        'auth_token': auth_token,
    }

    return credentials

Credential Storage

For persistent deployments, save credentials to a json file so they are available across sessions:

def save_credentials_to_config(credentials):
    """Store credentials to a json file for persistent access."""
    config_path = os.path.expanduser('~/.cloudship/credentials.json')
    os.makedirs(os.path.dirname(config_path), exist_ok=True)

    with open(config_path, 'w') as f:
        json.dump(credentials, f, indent=2)

    # Also save API key and secret token to a backup file
    backup_path = os.path.expanduser('~/.cloudship/auth-backup.json')
    with open(backup_path, 'w') as f:
        json.dump({
            'api_key': credentials.get('api_key'),
            'auth_token': credentials.get('auth_token'),
            'aws_secret': credentials.get('aws', {}).get('secret_key'),
        }, f)

    return config_path

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.

Cloud Deploy Helper is a skill published in the GitHub repository mctar/skill-check (2 stars, last pushed 6mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 24 tokens to every session and 1,095 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 1 finding (harvests environment variables). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
