secret-reader

secret-reader is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from modiqo/skillspec. It costs 14 tokens per session (48 once invoked), scanned C, original, Apache-2.0.

A check for whether the default AWS credential profile exists in the local credentials file. AWS is Amazon's cloud platform, and a profile stores the credentials used to access it.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps verify that the local machine has a default AWS profile before deployment work.
Why use it?
It catches missing AWS setup before a deployment command runs and fails later.

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 C, and why

secret-reader 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.

Reaches for credential fileshighPrivilege escalation

SSH keys, cloud credentials, git-credentials, .npmrc, /etc/shadow: reading these is how a config file becomes a credential leak.

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.
