EKS security reviews of a live cluster, plus hardening and compliance guidance. Three read-only capabilities with verdict exposed / not exposed / unknown. (1) CVE and advisory review - "am I exposed to CVE-...", "check this AWS security bulletin or GHSA against my cluster", "CVE review for EKS", "check what is current since a date" - for add-ons and images; kubelet and node-OS items are review-only. (2) Security event response - compromised image or package, leaked credential, suspicious pod -…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# EKS Security: reviews, response and hardening > **Execution model: fully autonomous, read-only, advisory.** This skill runs with no > interactive prompts and no scripts. It reads cluster and account state through the > Agent Space's read-only AWS and Kubernetes API access, applies the fixed rules below, > and prints every change as a command or manifest for the team to review and run. When > context is missing it infers it from cluster state or applies the stated defaults, and > notes every assumption in the report. When a fact it needs cannot be read, the result > is `unknown` with the reason and what to supply; it never guesses and never stops to ask. This skill does security reviews of a real EKS cluster and gives the hardening and compliance guidance behind them. It has three capabilities, each for any CVE or any event, each on live data: | Capability | Question it answers | Reference | |---|---|---| …

How to install
mdr add aws-samples/sample-apex-skills/eks-security@sha256:63abdac9e74a7472The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261106.a65a4da, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
