cloud-operation

cloud-operation is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from X-School-Academy/skill-pilot. It costs 52 tokens per session (595 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A cloud operations skill is a set of procedures for managing AWS and RunPod infrastructure. It covers credentials, EC2 servers, SSH connections, port forwarding, and RunPod GPU resources.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for configuring AWS access, creating or connecting to EC2 servers, forwarding ports, and managing RunPod GPU pods or endpoints.
Why use it?
It gives agents a defined way to perform cloud changes and handle access credentials without mixing up provider-specific steps.

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

cloud-operation 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 16d 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.

Action Index

AWS

Action Reference When to use
Choose AWS credential method & sync MCP aws-enable-cli.md No AWS credentials configured yet, MCP disabled, or user has not chosen an auth method
Provision EC2 instance (VPC + networking) aws-setup-ec2.md Launching a new EC2 server
Connect to EC2 via SSH aws-connect-ec2-ssh.md Opening an SSH session to an EC2 instance
Forward a remote EC2 port to localhost aws-ec2-tunnel.md Accessing a service running on EC2 from a local browser or tool
EC2 CLI reference (concepts, commands, troubleshooting) aws-ec2-cli.md Constructing or debugging EC2 API calls

RunPod

Action Reference When to use
Manage GPU pods, serverless, templates, volumes runpod-manage.md Any RunPod workload operation

Execution Rule

  • Never run raw aws ... shell commands directly.
  • Execute all AWS operations through the aws-api skill.
  • For AWS tasks not covered by the reference files above, use the aws-api skill directly, e.g. S3, ECR, ECS, SES, Lambda, RDS, DynamoDB etc.

Common Preconditions

  • AWS operations: AWS credentials configured for aws-api MCP — run the aws-enable-cli action if missing.
  • RunPod operations: runpodctl installed and API key configured via runpodctl doctor.

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.
