Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 3 hosts that are neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: calculator.aws, d1qsjq9pzbk1k6.cloudfront.net, dnd5zrqcec4or.cloudfront.net.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned quincysting/aws-pricing-calculator at e9b9bd3c0c.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

What it does

This skill allows you to calculate the estimated costs of running AWS services. It provides pricing estimates based on your specified configurations, including instance types, storage needs, and data transfer requirements. The tool helps in planning budgets and optimizing cloud spending.

When to use it

  • Project Planning: Estimate the cost of deploying a new application or service on AWS before committing resources.
  • Cost Optimization: Analyze existing infrastructure and identify potential areas for cost reduction by exploring different instance types or storage options.
  • "What-if" Scenarios: Quickly evaluate the financial impact of changes to your AWS environment, such as increasing storage capacity or scaling up compute power.
  • Budgeting: Create more accurate budgets for cloud infrastructure based on realistic pricing estimates.

Key capabilities

  • AWS Pricing Estimates
  • Configuration-based calculations
  • Instance Type Selection
  • Storage Cost Estimation
  • Data Transfer Considerations

Example prompts

  • "Calculate the cost of running an EC2 instance, t3.medium, in us-east-1 for one year."
  • "What would it cost to store 1TB of data on S3 Standard?"
  • "Estimate the price of a database with 50 GB storage and 10 IOPS."

Tips & gotchas

The accuracy of the estimates depends on providing precise configuration details. Pricing is subject to change, so always verify the latest AWS pricing documentation for the most up-to-date information.
