# Audit cloud accounts for security misconfigurations with Prowler
Run targeted AWS, Azure, or GCP security and compliance audits when an agent needs actionable cloud findings instead of a generic cloud-security platform overview.
## Prerequisites
Python or Docker runtime, cloud account credentials, optional AWS CLI or equivalent cloud auth setup
## Installation
- Choose whichever fits your setup:
+ Use the upstream install or setup path that matches your environment:
+ - docker compose up -d
+ - git clone https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler
+ - uv sync
+ - docker compose up postgres valkey -d
- 1. Copy this skill folder into your local skills directory.
- 2. Clone the repo and symlink or copy the skill into your agent workspace.
- 3. Add the repo as a git submodule if you manage shared skills centrally.
- 4. Install it through your internal provisioning or packaging workflow.
- 5. Download the folder directly from GitHub and place it in your skills collection.
+ Requirements and caveats from upstream:

+ - <a href="https://pypi.python.org/pypi/prowler/"><img alt="Python Version" src="https://img.shields.io/pypi/pyversions/prowler.svg"></a>
+ - <a href="https://hub.docker.com/r/toniblyx/prowler"><img alt="Docker Pulls" src="https://img.shields.io/docker/pulls/toniblyx/prowler"></a>
- Install command or upstream instructions:
+ Basic usage or getting-started notes:
+ - For detailed instructions on using Prowler App, refer to the [Prowler App Usage Guide](https://docs.prowler.com/projects/prowler-open-source/en/latest/tutorials/prowler-app/).
+ - If you want to use AWS role assumption (e.g., with the "Connect assuming IAM Role" option), you may need to mount your local .aws directory into the container as a volume (e.g., - "${HOME}/.aws:/home/prowler/.aws:ro")...
+ - **Commands to run the API**
- ```
- Install Prowler with pipx, pip, Homebrew, or Docker, authenticate to the target cloud account, then run the relevant provider checks such as `prowler aws`, `prowler azure`, or `prowler gcp` and review the generated findings report.
