How does this skill prevent cross-environment accidents?

It performs a mandatory identity check and matches the active AWS Account ID against a predefined environment mapping (Dev/Staging/Prod) before any command is executed.

Can it detect the environment automatically?

Yes, it can infer the target environment by analyzing directory structures, Terraform backend configurations, and current workspaces.

Does it support AWS SSO (Single Sign-On)?

Yes, it includes specific procedures for checking SSO session status and logging into named profiles using the AWS SSO CLI.

When should I use this skill?

It should be invoked as a precursor to any Terraform operations, AWS CLI commands, or drift detection tasks to ensure security and accuracy.

Verifies and manages AWS credentials to ensure infrastructure operations occur in the correct environment and prevent cross-account accidents.

The AWS Profile Management skill provides a safety-first framework for Claude to interact with AWS, implementing a robust verification layer before executing any Terraform or AWS CLI commands. It automatically checks the current caller identity, matches account IDs against specific environments (Dev, Staging, Prod), and handles complex credential scenarios like AWS SSO and role assumption. By enforcing strict environment detection and pre-operation checklists, it eliminates the risk of deploying resources to the wrong account or using expired tokens, making it an essential tool for secure and reliable DevOps workflows.
