77 / 100 · Review before installing
Check before installing. Some of what it can do is expected: a security skill usually runs scanners and checks websites.
By alicewe1/alice_skill (GitHub) · security · 63 stars · scanned at commit 19a54ac
Infrastructure-as-Code security scanning router for Terraform, CloudFormation, Kubernetes manifests, Helm, ARM/Bicep. Orchestrates Checkov, tfsec, Terrascan, KICS, kubesec, kube-linter, Polaris, cfn-lint/cfn-nag, and OPA/Conftest. Use when auditing IaC for misconfigurations, scanning Terraform plans, validating K8s security policies, checking cloud infrastructure compliance, or authoring custom policy-as-code (Rego).
Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Install
Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.
if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'iac-security' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'iac-security' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named iac-security already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/alicewe1/alice_skill' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '19a54ac988e9929160334271f5c1924ddd9b227e' -- '_modules/iac-security' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'_modules/iac-security' ~/.agents/skills/'iac-security' && rm -rf "$d"; fi
Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'iac-security' ~/.claude/skills/'iac-security' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
