Add continuous cloud audit to your CI/CD in ten minutes
Cloud security reviews are usually quarterly. Configuration drift happens daily. Between review cycles, buckets get created, firewall rules get loosened, service accounts get reused, and a bucket that was locked down last quarter might not be locked down today. Nothing about the review cadence catches any of it.
Tutorial 1 in this series walked through auditing three clouds with stackql from your terminal. Tutorial 2 showed how the same query engine lets an agent read live state before mutating anything. This guide takes the same audit pattern and puts it in your CI, so the check runs every day, or on every pull request, or every hour, without anyone remembering to run it.
The tool is stackql-audit-action, a GitHub Action that runs an opinionated set of security checks against your cloud accounts and renders findings inline on the workflow run page. Setup is copy-paste. First results in under two minutes.
