aws-security

AWS security service suitability, coverage and cost recommendations: WAF/origin overlap, AWS Network Firewall inspection coverage and policy review, VPC endpoint, Transit Gateway/Cloud WAN segmentation and DNS Firewall security-control suitability, certificate renewal ownership and monitoring, incident response triage ownership, centralized security log store (CloudWatch or Security Lake). Also factual configuration, findings, data sources and severity scoring for GuardDuty, Inspector, Security Hub V2/OCSF (Exposure, connectors, automation), Security Hub CSPM/ASFF (standards, controls), Macie, Detective, Security Lake, AWS Security Incident Response membership and case coverage, and Organizations security policies. Applies to advisory security-service choices even when one service is named. Implementation, rule or code authoring, deployment, scans and troubleshooting outside these factual procedures belong to specialist skills. Supports local AWS CLI and AWS MCP.

An agent can have at most 8 skills. Custom skills aren't available in tenants that use Microsoft Purview Information Barriers.

Compatible isn't the same as safe. These verdicts only say whether a skill's files follow Microsoft's documented load rules. The checker reads files and never runs them, and it doesn't review what a skill or its scripts actually do. Read a skill's instructions and scripts before you add it to an agent.
