hybrid-cloud-networking

hybrid-cloud-networking is a skill for Claude Code from wshobson/agents. It costs 47 tokens per session (1,537 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A practical guide to connecting private data centres to public cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and Oracle Cloud. It covers VPNs and dedicated network links for secure communication between them.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan or configure links between on-premises networks and cloud networks, including VPNs, dedicated connections, routing, and compliance-focused connectivity.
Why use it?
It helps teams extend existing infrastructure into the cloud without leaving systems connected through insecure or unreliable paths. It also supports gradual migrations and hybrid setups.

About the project

Agentic Plugin Marketplace is a collection of reusable plugins, agents, skills, commands, and rules for coding-agent tools including Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cursor, OpenCode, Antigravity CLI, and GitHub Copilot. It is for developers assembling agentic workflows across multiple harnesses from shared Markdown sources, and the catalogue entries are examples or subsets of those workflow components.

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

hybrid-cloud-networking 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 1mo 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.

Hybrid Cloud Networking

Configure secure, high-performance connectivity between on-premises and cloud environments using VPN, Direct Connect, ExpressRoute, Interconnect, and FastConnect.

Purpose

Establish secure, reliable network connectivity between on-premises data centers and cloud providers (AWS, Azure, GCP, OCI).

When to Use

  • Connect on-premises to cloud
  • Extend datacenter to cloud
  • Implement hybrid active-active setups
  • Meet compliance requirements
  • Migrate to cloud gradually

Connection Options

AWS Connectivity

1. Site-to-Site VPN
  • IPSec VPN over internet
  • Up to 1.25 Gbps per tunnel
  • Cost-effective for moderate bandwidth
  • Higher latency, internet-dependent
resource "aws_vpn_gateway" "main" {
  vpc_id = aws_vpc.main.id
  tags = {
    Name = "main-vpn-gateway"
  }
}

resource "aws_customer_gateway" "main" {
  bgp_asn    = 65000
  ip_address = "203.0.113.1"
  type       = "ipsec.1"
}

resource "aws_vpn_connection" "main" {
  vpn_gateway_id      = aws_vpn_gateway.main.id
  customer_gateway_id = aws_customer_gateway.main.id
  type                = "ipsec.1"
  static_routes_only  = false
}
2. AWS Direct Connect
  • Dedicated network connection
  • 1 Gbps to 100 Gbps
  • Lower latency, consistent bandwidth
  • More expensive, setup time required

Reference: See references/direct-connect.md

Azure Connectivity

1. Site-to-Site VPN
resource "azurerm_virtual_network_gateway" "vpn" {
  name                = "vpn-gateway"
  location            = azurerm_resource_group.main.location
  resource_group_name = azurerm_resource_group.main.name

  type     = "Vpn"
  vpn_type = "RouteBased"
  sku      = "VpnGw1"

  ip_configuration {
    name                          = "vnetGatewayConfig"
    public_ip_address_id          = azurerm_public_ip.vpn.id
    private_ip_address_allocation = "Dynamic"
    subnet_id                     = azurerm_subnet.gateway.id
  }
}
2. Azure ExpressRoute
  • Private connection via connectivity provider
  • Up to 100 Gbps
  • Low latency, high reliability
  • Premium for global connectivity

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.
