What standards does this skill check against?

It specifically evaluates your project against the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) requirements for protecting sensitive cardholder data.

How do I trigger a compliance check?

You can activate the skill by asking Claude Code to 'validate PCI compliance' or 'check PCI DSS' for a specific directory or cloud configuration.

Can it scan cloud infrastructure files?

Yes, it can analyze infrastructure-as-code (IaC) files like Terraform and CloudFormation to ensure your AWS or cloud environments are configured compliantly.

Does this replace a formal PCI audit?

While it provides critical automated checks and helps prepare your system for certification, it is a security tool for development and not a substitute for a formal audit by a Qualified Security Assessor (QSA).
