What it does

Terraform Security Audit is an agent skill from c0x12c/ai-toolkit. Security audit for Terraform codebases covering IAM, networking, encryption, secrets, access control, and compliance. Use before prod deploys, periodic audits, or new service security review.

Its SKILL.md is about 2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Security, covering Security review and Infrastructure as code. It works with Terraform.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Security review
  • Tasks that involve Infrastructure as code

Example prompts

  • “/terraform-security-audit”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. IAM — Identity and Access Management
  2. Network — VPC and Security Groups
  3. Encryption — Data at Rest and in Transit
  4. Secrets — Secret Management
  5. Access — Cluster and Console Access
  6. Compliance — Tags, Naming, and Backups

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 96b2c9d. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are hcl).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • github.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Terraform Security Audit loads about 2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 54 tokens; SKILL.md has 371 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~54
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2k

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.

Safety

Auto-check passed

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.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 371 words (~1,960 tokens).

“Runs a 6-area security audit on Terraform codebases. Produces a pass/fail report per area.”
