Can I use this skill to just login without scanning my whole infrastructure?

Yes, you can use flags like --skip-vpc or --skip-resources to perform a quick authentication without running the full resource discovery process.

How are AWS credentials managed by this skill?

The skill manages standard AWS CLI profiles using account aliases. It uses SSO OIDC tokens to maintain sessions, ensuring a secure and standard authentication path.

Does this skill require hardcoding AWS account IDs?

No, starting with version 1.1, the skill uses auto-discovery via the AWS Organizations API to detect the management account and list all available member accounts automatically.

Which AWS resources does the discovery feature support?

The skill currently inventories VPCs (including subnets and NAT gateways), S3 buckets, SQS queues, SNS topics, and SES identities across multiple regions.

Cloud Infrastructure

Authenticates Claude to AWS accounts via SSO and automatically discovers infrastructure resources for agentic workflows.

About

The AWS Login skill streamlines cloud development by managing complex SSO OIDC authentication flows and providing Claude with immediate context of your cloud environment. It eliminates the need for manual configuration by auto-detecting management accounts via the Organizations API and building a comprehensive inventory of VPCs, S3 buckets, and messaging services. By creating dynamic CLI profiles and structured data snapshots, it enables the AI to navigate multi-account architectures safely and efficiently.
