Applicable to any RDS-for-Oracle question including connecting a Python Lambda to RDS Oracle in a VPC with pooling and cold-start optimization, EKS pods to RDS Oracle via the Secrets Manager CSI driver with IRSA and SecretProviderClass, ORA-12170 cross-VPC timeouts from EC2, DPI-1047 cannot-locate-64-bit-Oracle-Client errors, and Oracle Connection Manager (CMAN) on EC2 as a proxy with HA across two AZs. Covers python-oracledb thin vs thick mode, init_oracle_client, RDS Proxy does NOT support RDS Oracle, port 1521, VPC peering, Transit Gateway, Kerberos with AWS Managed Microsoft AD, SSL/TLS/NNE, SSM port forwarding, EC2/ECS Fargate/EKS/Lambda, SQL Developer/DBeaver/Toad/SQLcl, and Secrets Manager.

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 creating/modifying system-level service units ("Run CMAN under systemd — write a service unit") and other on-host installation steps for EC2 instances, which require privileged changes to a machine's state (systemd/service files), so it can push the agent to perform state-changing, privileged operations.
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 EKS install commands fetch and apply remote manifests/charts at runtime (helm repo add https://kubernetes-sigs.github.io/secrets-store-csi-driver/charts and kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/aws/secrets-store-csi-driver-provider-aws/main/deployment/aws-provider-installer.yaml), which would execute remote content on the target cluster, so these URLs are runtime external dependencies that can execute code.
