  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • 6 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by aj-geddes on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Cloud Security Configuration AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.
2

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/aj-geddes/useful-ai-prompts.git /tmp/useful-ai-prompts
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/useful-ai-prompts/skills/cloud-security-configuration .claude/skills/cloud-security-configuration
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Cloud Security Configuration in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Cloud Security Configuration on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Cloud Security Configuration is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Table of Contents

Overview

Cloud security requires comprehensive strategies spanning identity management, encryption, network controls, compliance, and threat detection. Implement defense-in-depth with multiple layers of protection and continuous monitoring.

When to Use

  • Protecting sensitive data in cloud
  • Compliance with regulations (GDPR, HIPAA, PCI-DSS)
  • Implementing zero-trust security
  • Securing multi-cloud environments
  • Threat detection and response
  • Identity and access management
  • Network isolation and segmentation
  • Encryption and key management

Quick Start

Minimal working example:

bash
# Enable GuardDuty (threat detection)
aws guardduty create-detector \
  --enable \
  --finding-publishing-frequency FIFTEEN_MINUTES

# Enable CloudTrail (audit logging)
aws cloudtrail create-trail \
  --name organization-trail \
  --s3-bucket-name audit-bucket \
  --is-multi-region-trail

# Enable S3 bucket encryption by default
aws s3api put-bucket-encryption \
  --bucket my-bucket \
  --server-side-encryption-configuration '{
    "Rules": [{
      "ApplyServerSideEncryptionByDefault": {
        "SSEAlgorithm": "aws:kms",
        "KMSMasterKeyID": "arn:aws:kms:region:account:key/key-id"
      },
      "BucketKeyEnabled": true
    }]
  }'

# Enable VPC Flow Logs
// ... (see reference guides for full implementation)

Best Practices

✅ DO

  • Implement least privilege access
  • Enable MFA everywhere
  • Use service accounts for applications
  • Encrypt data at rest and in transit
  • Enable comprehensive logging
  • Implement network segmentation
  • Use secrets management
  • Enable threat detection
  • Regular security assessments
  • Keep systems patched

❌ DON'T

  • Use root/default credentials
  • Store secrets in code
  • Over-permissive security groups
  • Disable encryption
  • Ignore logs and monitoring
  • Share credentials
  • Skip compliance requirements
  • Trust unverified data sources

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Cloud Security Configuration AI skill do?

Implement comprehensive cloud security across AWS, Azure, and GCP with IAM, encryption, network security, compliance, and threat detection.

Why use Cloud Security Configuration on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Cloud Security Configuration is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Cloud Security Configuration in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/aj-geddes/useful-ai-prompts/tree/main/skills/cloud-security-configuration. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Cloud Security Configuration?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Cloud Security Configuration?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Cloud Security Configuration with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Cloud Security Configuration AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by aj-geddes under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
