What cloud platforms are supported?

The skill provides specialized investigation patterns for AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Kubernetes (including EKS and kOps).

What kind of documentation does it generate?

It produces standardized 'infra-docs' for factual resource records and 'ADRs' (Architectural Decision Records) to document the inferred rationale behind legacy setups.

How does this skill handle undocumented resources?

It uses an evidence-based framework to infer intent from configuration patterns, resource relationships, and timing, while clearly labeling inferred content to maintain documentation integrity.

Can this skill help with Kubernetes migrations?

Yes, it specifically includes patterns for investigating kOps-managed clusters to identify drift and configurations that must be addressed before moving to EKS.

Investigates, interprets, and documents legacy cloud infrastructure to reveal the intent and risks behind inherited configurations.

Infrastructure Archaeology is a specialized skill for engineers navigating context-sparse cloud environments, particularly during company mergers or handovers. It provides a structured framework to map out AWS, Azure, and Kubernetes resources, reverse-engineering technical decisions from evidence like naming patterns, CIDR blocks, and CloudTrail logs. By systematically separating factual observations from inferred intent, it transforms undocumented 'black box' infrastructure into transparent, well-documented assets ready for migration or modernization.
