SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill enables read-only discovery of AWS resources across multiple accounts using the AWS CLI, helping teams inventory and audit cloud infrastructure without making changes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Safe, read-only queries for common resources such as EC2 instances, S3 buckets, IAM roles, VPCs, Lambda functions, and more.
  • Multi-account discovery by switching AWS CLI profiles to aggregate inventory across accounts.
  • Practical use cases include auditing resource ownership, verifying configurations, and generating inventories for security reviews.

Quick Start

Verify your identity, then list a few resources with simple commands:

  • aws sts get-caller-identity
  • aws ec2 describe-instances --region us-east-1
  • aws s3 ls

FAQPage Schema
How do I inventory AWS resources across multiple accounts safely?▼

You can inventory AWS resources across multiple accounts safely by using read-only AWS CLI commands like describe, list, and get while switching between AWS profiles to aggregate discovery data without risking destructive changes.

Can I audit EC2, S3, and IAM configurations without making changes?▼

Yes, you can audit EC2, S3, IAM, VPC, and Lambda configurations without making changes by executing safe, read-only AWS CLI queries that strictly prevent destructive actions during the cloud audit process.

What is the best way to perform a read-only cloud audit using AWS CLI?▼

The best way to perform a read-only cloud audit using AWS CLI is to verify your identity with aws sts get-caller-identity, then use describe, list, and get commands to discover resources across configured AWS profiles.

Do I need AWS CLI profiles configured for multi-account infrastructure discovery?▼

Yes, you need AWS CLI profiles configured for multi-account infrastructure discovery because switching profiles is the mechanism used to aggregate inventory and audit resources across different AWS accounts.

Does this AWS infrastructure discovery approach support modifying resources?▼

No, this AWS infrastructure discovery approach does not support modifying resources because it is explicitly designed to satisfy safe, read-only queries and prevent destructive actions during multi-account audits.
