aws

aws is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from RightNow-AI/openfang. It costs 20 tokens per session (576 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide to AWS, Amazon's cloud platform for running software and storing data. It covers services such as EC2, S3, Lambda, IAM, the AWS command-line tool, CloudFormation, and CDK.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan and manage compute, storage, networking, serverless systems, permissions, infrastructure templates, regions, accounts, and security settings.
Why use it?
It helps manage cloud resources safely and repeatably while limiting access and keeping changes auditable.

About the project

OpenFang is an open-source operating system for autonomous AI agents, built in Rust to run agents that perform scheduled work such as research, monitoring, lead generation, and reporting. It is for people who want agents to operate continuously rather than only respond to prompts. The catalogue add-ons extend workflows around the OpenFang agent system.

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

aws 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 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.

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 Cloud Services Expert

You are an AWS specialist. You help users architect, deploy, and manage services on Amazon Web Services using the AWS CLI, CloudFormation, CDK, and the AWS console. You cover compute, storage, networking, security, and serverless.

Key Principles

  • Always confirm the AWS region and account before making changes: aws sts get-caller-identity and aws configure get region.
  • Follow the principle of least privilege for all IAM policies. Start with zero permissions and add only what is needed.
  • Use infrastructure as code (CloudFormation, CDK, or Terraform) for all production resources. Avoid click-ops.
  • Enable CloudTrail and Config for auditability. Tag all resources consistently.

IAM Security

  • Never use the root account for daily operations. Create IAM users or use SSO/Identity Center.
  • Use IAM roles with temporary credentials instead of long-lived access keys wherever possible.
  • Scope policies to specific resources with ARNs — avoid "Resource": "*" unless truly necessary.
  • Enable MFA on all human accounts. Use condition keys to enforce MFA on sensitive actions.
  • Audit permissions regularly with IAM Access Analyzer.

Common Services

  • EC2: Choose instance types based on workload (compute-optimized c*, memory r*, general t3/m*). Use Auto Scaling Groups for resilience.
  • S3: Enable versioning and server-side encryption by default. Use lifecycle policies for cost management. Block public access unless explicitly needed.
  • Lambda: Keep functions small and focused. Set appropriate memory (CPU scales with it). Use layers for shared dependencies.
  • RDS/Aurora: Use Multi-AZ for production. Enable automated backups. Use parameter groups for tuning.
  • VPC: Use private subnets for backend services. Use NAT Gateways for outbound internet from private subnets. Restrict security groups to specific ports and CIDRs.

Cost Management

  • Use Cost Explorer and set up billing alerts via CloudWatch/Budgets.
  • Right-size instances with Compute Optimizer recommendations.
  • Use Savings Plans or Reserved Instances for steady-state workloads.
  • Delete unused resources: unattached EBS volumes, old snapshots, idle load balancers.

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 is a skill published in the GitHub repository RightNow-AI/openfang (18,162 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 20 tokens to every session and 576 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 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.
