SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This skill validates pricing for significant findings by cross-checking savings estimates against live AWS Pricing data, catching common mistakes before they reach the user.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Cross-checks savings using AWS Pricing API for large findings and uses fast fallbacks for smaller estimates.
  • Enforces sanity rules such as ensuring savings do not exceed service spend and uses explicit check routing to avoid misrouting errors.
  • Use case: run this validation before generating a cost-optimisation report to ensure all pricing is accurate and auditable.

Quick Start

Run the validator against findings.json to produce pricing-validated results.

FAQPage Schema
How do I validate AWS pricing findings before generating a cost optimization report?

You can validate AWS pricing findings by cross-checking savings estimates against live AWS Pricing data. This skill automatically corrects pricing errors and enforces sanity rules, such as ensuring savings do not exceed service spend, before reporting.

What AWS permissions do I need to validate cloud cost findings against live pricing data?

Validating AWS cloud cost findings requires AWS credentials with permissions to access the AWS Pricing API and Cost Explorer. These permissions allow the tool to cross-check significant savings estimates against live pricing data.

How does AWS pricing validation handle API usage for large versus small cost findings?

AWS pricing validation applies API cross-checks to large findings that require thorough validation, while using fast fallbacks for smaller estimates. This routing minimizes overall API usage while maintaining accuracy.

Why do my AWS cost optimization savings estimates show incorrect pricing?

Incorrect pricing in AWS cost optimization findings often occurs when estimates are not cross-checked against live AWS Pricing data. Validating findings before reporting catches common mistakes and enforces sanity rules to ensure savings do not exceed service spend.

Can I run AWS pricing validation automatically on a findings file?

Yes, you can run the validator against a findings.json file to produce pricing-validated results. This process ensures all pricing is accurate and auditable before you generate a final cost-optimization report.
