aws-transform
Performs code upgrades, migrations, and transformations using the AWS Transform (ATX) CLI. Use when upgrading language versions, migrating AWS SDKs, migrating frameworks (Angular, Vue.js, Spring Boot, React), upgrading libraries, optimizing performance, migrating x86 to Graviton, analyzing codebases / generating documentation, or defining custom transformations with natural language. Runs locally on a few repositories or at scale across hundreds via AWS Batch/Fargate.

Suggest reviewing before use
Security
1 medium severity finding. This skill can be installed but you should review these findings before use.
W013: Attempt to modify system services in skill instructions.
What this means
The skill prompts the agent to compromise the security or integrity of the user’s machine by modifying system-level services or configurations, such as obtaining elevated privileges, altering startup scripts, or changing system-wide settings.
Why it was flagged
The skill instructs running installer scripts and explicit sudo package-install commands (and Dockerfile edits that run as root), which direct the agent/user to make privileged changes to the host or build environment and thus can modify the machine state.
Low
Low-risk findings.
1 low severity finding. Worth noting, but not necessarily harmful.
W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).
What this means
The skill fetches instructions or code from an external URL at runtime, and the fetched content directly controls the agent’s prompts or executes code. This dynamic dependency allows the external source to modify the agent’s behavior without any changes to the skill itself.
Why it was flagged
The skill explicitly downloads and executes remote installer code at runtime (curl -fsSL https://transform-cli.awsstatic.com/install.sh | bash) and clones https://github.com/aws-samples/aws-transform-custom-samples.git at runtime to obtain infrastructure scripts that are executed (setup.sh, Dockerfile builds), so these external URLs provide required code that the skill runs.
