guardduty-cost-optimization
From the author
Identify and quantify Amazon GuardDuty cost optimization opportunities. Use this skill when a user asks to reduce, review, audit, or optimize GuardDuty spend, or reports an unexpected GuardDuty cost increase or an expensive protection plan. Activate on requests like "why is my GuardDuty bill so high", "reduce GuardDuty costs", "GuardDuty cost review", "which GuardDuty protection plan costs the most", "is GuardDuty S3 Protection worth it", or "project my GuardDuty spend after the free trial". This skill analyzes enabled protection plans and their per-data-source usage from the AWS/GuardDuty CloudWatch usage metrics through read-only APIs to surface high-cost/low-signal protection plans, VPC-Flow-Log charges offset by Runtime Monitoring, expensive S3/data-event analysis, free-trial cost projection, and duplicate multi-account coverage, producing a severity-ranked report of savings.

- cloudtrail-cost-optimizationaws/tools-for-devops-agentIdentify and quantify AWS CloudTrail cost optimization opportunities. Use this skill when a user asks to reduce, review, audit, or optimize CloudTrail spend, or reports an unexpected CloudTrail cost or usage increase. Activate on requests like "why is my CloudTrail bill so high", "reduce CloudTrail costs", "find duplicate CloudTrail trails", "CloudTrail cost review", "optimize CloudTrail Lake", or "CloudTrail data events are expensive". This skill analyzes trails, event selectors, and CloudTrail Lake event data stores through read-only AWS APIs to surface duplicate management-event trails, unnecessary read events, high-volume noise events (KMS, RDS Data API), overly broad data event logging, and Lake ingestion/retention waste, producing a severity-ranked report of savings.DevOps★ 116
- config-cost-optimizationaws/tools-for-devops-agentIdentify and quantify AWS Config cost optimization opportunities. Use this skill when a user asks to reduce, review, audit, or optimize AWS Config spend, or reports an unexpected AWS Config cost or configuration-item increase. Activate on requests like "why is my AWS Config bill so high", "reduce Config costs", "AWS Config cost review", "my configuration item count spiked", "should I use daily or continuous Config recording", or "which resources are driving Config cost". This skill analyzes configuration recorders, recording frequency, recorded resource types, Config rules, conformance packs, and the delivery S3 bucket through read-only AWS APIs to surface high-churn configuration-item drivers, continuous-vs- daily recording mismatches, over-broad resource recording, duplicate global-resource recording, and redundant rules/conformance packs, producing a severity-ranked report of savings.DevOps★ 116
