Does it document secrets?

No, the skill is designed to only list resource names and configuration patterns, and it explicitly avoids printing or storing actual secret values.

Does this skill support multi-cloud environments?

Yes, it includes specific investigation patterns and heuristics for AWS, Microsoft Azure, and various Kubernetes distributions including kOps.

What is Infrastructure Archaeology?

It is a systematic process of investigating and documenting undocumented cloud resources to understand their original purpose and current operational risks.

Can it help with EKS migrations?

Yes, it specifically maps kOps-managed clusters to identify configuration drift and architectural details necessary for a smooth EKS transition.

How does it handle company mergers?

It identifies 'merge artifacts' such as duplicate resources, overlapping CIDR ranges, and redundant logging pipelines that are common when companies consolidate.

Deciphers, maps, and documents legacy cloud infrastructure and inherited configurations to uncover intent and resolve technical debt.

This skill empowers engineers to navigate complex, undocumented cloud environments—particularly during company mergers or after personnel changes. It provides a systematic framework for investigating AWS, Azure, and Kubernetes resources, moving from evidence to hypothesis to identify hidden dependencies, redundant assets, and historical decision-making context. By automating the discovery of resource relationships and mapping configurations back to logical business needs, it simplifies the process of untangling technical debt and preparing for modern infrastructure migrations.
