Waf is an agent skill from aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Configures AWS WAF to filter web traffic: creating web access control lists (web ACLs) on CloudFront, Application Load Balancers, API Gateway, and AppSync; AWS Managed Rules tuned in Count mode; rate-based rules for HTTP floods; IP set and geographic match rules; Bot Control (Common and Targeted); turning bot labels into a confidence signal; stripping spoofed inbound x-amzn-waf- headers; recovering the real client IP behind a CDN; Fraud Control (account takeover and account creation fraud prevention); and logging…
Its SKILL.md is about 2.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 14 other files, including reference files (for example `references/adaptive-mitigation-playbook-for-forwarded-signals.md`, `references/adding-managed-rules-and-tuning-with-count-mode.md` and `references/adding-rate-based-rules.md`).
It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Cloud networking, Microservices and Authorization and RBAC. It works with Amazon Web Services. The repository describes itself as: Official, AWS-supported MCP servers, skills, and plugins to help AI agents build on AWS. The licence is Apache-2.0.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 188af2f. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Waf loads about 2.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~33k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 248 tokens; SKILL.md has 970 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

This skill also uses 13 other files; get the full folder from GitHub.Domain expertise for configuring AWS WAF, the web application firewall that filters HTTP and HTTPS traffic to CloudFront distributions, Application Load Balancers, API Gateway REST APIs, and AppSync GraphQL APIs. Covers web ACL creation and association, AWS Managed Rules, rate-based rules, match rules (IP set and geographic), Bot Control and the signal-forwarding workflows built on top of it, Fraud Control for logins and signups, AI and LLM crawler management, and the logging that every tuning workflow depends on.
This skill is a router. Each customer task maps to a procedure file under references/. Read the
matching reference in full before acting, then follow its constraints and steps. The reference
files are self-contained: each carries its own decision tables, constraints, procedure, and
troubleshooting.
Execute commands using the AWS MCP server when connected (sandboxed execution, audit logging,
observability). Fall back to the AWS CLI otherwise. A web ACL's scope is fixed at creation: a
CloudFront web ACL must be created in us-east-1 with CLOUDFRONT scope, while a regional web ACL
(Application Load Balancer, API Gateway, AppSync) is created in the resource's Region with
REGIONAL scope.
CLOUDFRONT scope in
us-east-1; a regional resource needs a REGIONAL web ACL in its own Region. Scope cannot be
changed later, so the creating reference settles it before anything is built.x-amzn-waf-* headers, the inbound-header-stripping reference is required to
prevent spoofing. The confidence-signal, interpolation, and client-IP references all point at it.AWS WAF is itself a security control, so misconfiguration directly weakens an application's defenses. Apply these across every reference:
wafv2: actions a task needs (for
example wafv2:CreateWebACL, wafv2:GetWebACL, wafv2:UpdateWebACL, wafv2:AssociateWebACL,
wafv2:PutLoggingConfiguration) rather than wafv2:* or the AWSWAFFullAccess managed policy.aws sts assume-role) rather than long-lived IAM user access
keys when running these WAF CLI commands.wafv2 management events

UpdateWebACL rule removals) and on the web ACL's BlockedRequests and CountedRequests

web ACL is associated and that its posture matches the intended default (block vs allow) before

Configures AWS WAF to filter web traffic: creating web access control lists (web ACLs) on CloudFront, Application Load Balancers, API Gateway, and AppSync; AWS Managed Rules tuned in Count mode…. Waf is an agent skill from aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws, published by the product's own GitHub organization.
Waf fits situations like: the user wants to protect a web application; API from common exploits; credential stuffing; fake-account creation.
Run `npx skills add aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws --skill waf -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/specialized-skills/networking-and-content-delivery-skills/waf in aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws) into .claude/skills/waf in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws --skill waf -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/specialized-skills/networking-and-content-delivery-skills/waf in aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws) into .agents/skills/waf in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws --skill waf -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/waf, .gemini/skills/waf, .github/skills/waf and .opencode/skills/waf in your project.
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Waf needs the command-line tools its instructions call (aws).
SKILL.md names 2 domains. As links in the text: docs.aws.amazon.com and aws.amazon.com. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Waf is published under the Apache-2.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 2.2k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 8.8k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 31k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Waf: Frontmcp Deployment (agentfront/frontmcp, 146 stars), Analyzing API Gateway Access Logs (mukul975/Anthropic-Cybersecurity-Skills, 34k stars), AWS Solution Architect (borghei/Claude-Skills, 881 stars) and AWS Essentials (ericrisco/rsc-harness, 167 stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
aws (a GitHub organization, an official publisher) maintains it in aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws, which has 2,825 GitHub stars. The repository holds 138 skills in this directory. The repository was last updated on October 7, 2026.
