Provides AWS CloudFormation patterns for IAM roles, policies, managed policies, permission boundaries, and trust relationships. Use when modeling least-privilege access, cross-account assumptions, service roles, or reusable IAM stacks that other CloudFormation templates consume.
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
# AWS CloudFormation IAM Security ## Overview Use this skill to model IAM with CloudFormation in a way that stays secure, auditable, and maintainable. The most important design concerns are: - separating trust policies from permission policies - preferring roles over long-lived users wherever possible - keeping least-privilege boundaries readable and reusable Do not treat `SKILL.md` as a full IAM encyclopedia. Use the bundled references for larger policy examples and service-specific variants. ## When to Use - Creating IAM roles for Lambda, ECS, EC2, Step Functions, or other AWS services - Defining inline policies, managed policies, and permission boundaries in CloudFormation - Modeling cross-account assume-role access with constrained trust policies - Exporting IAM role ARNs or managed policy ARNs to downstream stacks - Reviewing wildcard permissions, boundary drift, or role replacement risk - Creating reusable IAM stacks for platform or application teams ## Instructions ### 1. Define the trust boundary first …

How to install
mdr add giuseppe-trisciuoglio/developer-kit/aws-cloudformation-iam@sha256:e94b309921632d6dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260324.a02e282, 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.
