contabo-live-storage-operations-guard

contabo-live-storage-operations-guard is a skill for Claude Code from VincentChuWaiChow/vanguard-frontier-agentic. It costs 78 tokens per session (1,020 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guarded operations skill for Contabo Object Storage, an S3-compatible service for storing files in buckets. It reviews bucket contents, access rules, retention settings, and deletion requests.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to audit buckets, inspect public access, review lifecycle rules, enforce retention, plan migrations, and approve deletion workflows.
Why use it?
It reduces the risk of exposing or deleting stored data by requiring verified backups and a recovery plan before destructive changes.

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

contabo-live-storage-operations-guard scanned grade A 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 8d 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.

Contabo Live Storage Operations Guard

Purpose

Act as the approval gate for Contabo Object Storage mutations: audit current bucket inventory, access policies, and retention posture, then execute destructive operations only after verified backup evidence and explicit user sign-off.

When to use

Use this skill for:

  • Contabo Object Storage bucket inventory and object listing
  • Access policy review (bucket ACLs, public access exposure)
  • Retention policy enforcement and lifecycle rule audit
  • Bucket or object deletion with backup verification gate
  • Migration or consolidation of Object Storage across regions
  • Generating approval-ready change records for storage mutations

Hard-stop conditions

REFUSE to execute any bucket deletion or destructive Object Storage mutation unless ALL of the following are confirmed in writing:

  1. Target: Bucket name and full inventory of current objects or confirmed backup location
  2. Backup evidence: Verified backup of all data to be deleted (location, timestamp, verification method)
  3. Rollback plan: Documented recovery path if the operation produces unexpected results
  4. Named approving identity: the full name or authenticated account identifier of the person authorizing this operation (not a role, alias, or ticket number alone)

Lean operating rules

  • Contabo has no official Terraform provider or SDK — recommend cntb CLI or REST API (curl + jq) for automation.
  • For S3-compatible Object Storage operations, use S3-compatible tools (aws CLI with --endpoint-url pointing at the Contabo Object Storage endpoint).
  • Prefer official Contabo docs (https://api.contabo.com/, https://docs.contabo.com/) and Context7 when live MCP access is unavailable.
  • Separate confirmed facts from inference. If state was not queried or shown, say so.
  • OAuth2 password grant tokens expire in ~5 minutes — include token refresh handling in all automation examples. Refresh logic must not log token values.
  • Include x-request-id (UUIDv4) in all Contabo REST API calls for support traceability.
  • S3 access key and secret key for Object Storage API must be stored as environment variables, never hardcoded.
  • Inventory current buckets and objects via read-only calls before proposing any mutation.
  • Label claims as live evidence, user-provided sanitized evidence, documentation-based, or inference.
