Automated safety checks
This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.
Declares what it does: passed
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 undeclared network calls: passed
Makes no network calls.
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.
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

About this skill
What it does
This skill enables AI agents to generate structured, step-by-step migration roadmaps for moving applications from on-premise environments or legacy clouds to modern cloud providers. It analyzes current infrastructure constraints and defines specific phases for data transfer, application refactoring, and validation.
When to use it
- You need a high-level strategy before committing budget to a major infrastructure overhaul.
- Your team requires a checklist of prerequisites, such as network configuration and compliance audits.
- You are evaluating risks associated with downtime during the transition period.
- Stakeholders need a clear timeline for each stage of the migration lifecycle.
Key capabilities
- Generates phased migration plans tailored to specific source and target environments.
- Identifies critical dependencies and potential bottlenecks in the current architecture.
- Outlines resource requirements, including compute power and storage needs.
- Suggests validation steps to ensure data integrity post-migration.
Example prompts
- "Create a 6-month migration plan for moving our monolithic e-commerce site from AWS EC2 to Kubernetes on Azure."
- "List the security compliance checks required before migrating sensitive financial databases to the cloud."
- "Draft a risk assessment and rollback strategy for lifting and shifting a legacy Java application to Google Cloud."
Tips & gotchas
Ensure you provide details about your current stack (e.g., database types, programming languages) to get relevant migration paths. This skill focuses on planning; actual execution requires hands-on implementation by DevOps or cloud engineers.
