Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

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

    Only contacts known or declared hosts: schemas.xmlsoap.org.

    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.

    Hosts contacted

    schemas.xmlsoap.orgnamespace identifier

  • 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 itsmostafa/aws-agent-skills at e786d25128.

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

About this skill

The Cognito skill enables AI agents to interact with Amazon Cognito, allowing them to manage user pools and identity pools programmatically. It facilitates tasks like creating users, authenticating sessions, and managing groups directly within your AWS infrastructure.

When to use it

  • Automate the onboarding process for new users by programmatically creating accounts in a user pool.
  • Reset forgotten passwords or update user attributes without manual administrative intervention.
  • Generate temporary credentials for federated identities using an identity pool for secure API access.
  • Manage group memberships to control permissions and access levels dynamically based on user roles.

Key capabilities

  • Create, delete, and list users within Amazon Cognito user pools.
  • Authenticate users and retrieve authentication tokens (ID, Access, and Refresh).
  • Manage groups and update user attributes in real-time.
  • Initiate password resets and handle account recovery flows.
  • Link and unlink identities between user pools and identity pools.

Example prompts

  • "Create a new user named '[email protected]' with the email attribute set to '[email protected]'."
  • "Authenticate the user 'jane.smith' using her username and password, then return the access token."
  • "Add the current authenticated user to the 'Admins' group in the specified user pool."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your AWS credentials have the necessary cognito-idp:* permissions before attempting to execute these operations. This skill requires a pre-configured Cognito user pool or identity pool ID to function correctly.
