What it does

Proactively surfaces aged credentials before they become a liability. Each week it inventories active AWS access keys, flags any past their rotation deadline, opens tracking tickets, and gives the team a single dashboard-ready summary.

When to use it

Use it to enforce a key-rotation SLA across many IAM users or service accounts. Ideal when you need an audit trail proving stale keys are tracked, not ignored, for SOC 2 or internal compliance.

How it works

  1. 1A weekly schedule kicks off the audit job.
  2. 2The flow lists active IAM access keys and reads each one's creation date through the AWS API.
  3. 3A logic step computes age and filters to keys older than the configured threshold (e.g., 90 days).
  4. 4For each stale key it creates a Linear issue assigned to the owning team with the key ID and age.
  5. 5The findings are appended to an Airtable inventory table for historical tracking.
  6. 6A Slack digest posts the count of stale keys and links to the new tickets.

Set it up

What you configure once, before turning it on.

  1. 1
    Connect AWS S3Buckets, objects, signed URLs.
  2. 2
    Connect LinearIssues, projects, cycles, triage.
  3. 3
    Connect AirtableBases, tables, views, automations.
  4. 4
    Connect SlackChannels, DMs, threads, mentions.
  5. 5
    Set each agent's modelWe leave models unset so you pick the tier — fast + cheap, or top-quality.
  6. 6
    Tune it to your dataEdit the prompts, filters, and field mappings so it matches how your team works.
  7. 7
    Test, then turn it onRun once against a sample, confirm the output, then enable the trigger.
