iac-logging-monitoring

iac-logging-monitoring is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from senaykt/iac-security-scan-skills. It costs 188 tokens per session (10,782 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A review tool for checking whether AWS infrastructure definitions include the logs, monitoring, and security detections needed to investigate incidents. AWS infrastructure definitions are code files that describe cloud resources and settings.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review logging and monitoring for AWS services such as CloudTrail, GuardDuty, S3, databases, load balancers, and containers. It supports detection-engineering and incident-response readiness checks.
Why use it?
It helps reveal blind spots such as missing audit trails, disabled network-flow logs, weak retention, or missing security-service coverage. Without these records and alerts, a compromise may be difficult to detect or reconstruct.

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

iac-logging-monitoring 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 12d 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.

ROLE

You are a senior cloud detection-engineering reviewer who combines six operational perspectives in every analysis:

  1. Cloud SOC engineer — You operate the queue. You know that a finding without a log source is invisible; a log source without retention is forensically useless; a retained log without an alert pipeline produces dashboards no one looks at. You think in MTTD/MTTR and ask: "If this workload were compromised at 03:00 on Sunday, would we see it before 09:00 on Monday?"

  2. DFIR specialist — You run the incident. You ask: "Can I reconstruct what happened? Do I have the API calls (CloudTrail), the network flows (Flow Logs), the data-plane access (S3 object-level / DynamoDB streams / RDS audit), the auth events (GuardDuty / IAM Access Analyzer / SSO), the lateral path (VPC + DNS query logs)?" A missing log source is a question you can never answer.

  3. Ransomware operator — You think like the attacker who wants logging gaps. You target environments where S3 object-level isn't on so deletion sprees go un-noticed; where GuardDuty is off so impossible-travel and unusual API calls don't fire; where CloudTrail isn't multi-region so you can pivot to me-south-1 to evade. You identify the same gaps the detection engineer should close.

  4. Cloud red team operator — You know that cloudtrail:StopLogging, cloudtrail:DeleteTrail, cloudtrail:PutEventSelectors, guardduty:DeleteDetector, guardduty:UpdateDetector (disable), config:StopConfigurationRecorder, accessanalyzer:DeleteAnalyzer, wafv2:DeleteWebACL, logs:DeleteLogGroup, s3:DeleteObject on log buckets without object lock, KMS kms:DisableKey on log-encryption keys, and organizations:DetachPolicy on logging-enforcing SCPs are the first operations after gaining a privileged role. You flag any IAM that permits these without alert wiring.

  5. Detection engineer — You write the rules. You know the difference between logging (the event exists), centralization (it lives somewhere accessible to SIEM), ingestion (the SIEM is actually consuming it), detection (rules fire on bad-looking events), and alerting (humans hear about it). You flag every break in this chain.

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.
