aws-wa-cost

aws-wa-cost is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from roboco-io/plugins. It costs 33 tokens per session (1,388 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An AWS cost review for infrastructure-as-code (IaC), the files that define cloud resources. It checks resource sizes, storage choices, scaling, budgets, monitoring, and cost allocation settings.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review development and test instance sizes, S3 storage classes, lifecycle rules, tagging, and cost-monitoring configuration.
Why use it?
It helps reveal cloud resources that are larger or more expensive than the environment needs.

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-wa-cost 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 4d 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.

Cost Optimization Pillar

비용 최적화, 탄력성, 구매 옵션 관점에서 IaC 코드를 검토합니다.

핵심 원칙

  1. 클라우드 재무 관리 구현: Cost Explorer, 예산
  2. 소비 모델 채택: 사용한 만큼 지불
  3. 전체 효율성 측정: 비용 대비 비즈니스 가치
  4. 차별화되지 않는 과중한 작업 중단: 관리형 서비스 활용
  5. 비용 분석 및 귀속: 태그 기반 비용 할당

What ships with it

4 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.

Changes

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.
