Can I automate these cleanups to run weekly?

Yes, the skill provides patterns for creating AWS Lambda functions and CloudWatch alarms that can automate the identification and deletion of resources based on your retention policies.

Is it safe to run these cleanup scripts directly on production?

No. The skill emphasizes a safety-first workflow including a Discovery Phase and a Dry-Run execution. Always verify dependencies and review the safety checklist before performing actual deletions.

What specific AWS resources can this skill clean up?

It targets unattached EBS volumes, old snapshots, incomplete S3 uploads, stopped EC2 instances, unused AMIs, Elastic IPs, Load Balancers, and NAT Gateways.

How does the Cost Impact Calculator estimate savings?

The skill uses Python and Boto3 to query your current unused resources and applies standard AWS pricing (such as $0.10/GB-month for gp3 volumes) to calculate potential monthly and annual savings.
