Find AWS cost waste in Terraform, CloudFormation, and live AWS accounts with CloudBurn's read-only scans.

What cloudburn does, in the publisher's words

CloudBurn finds AWS cost waste before and after deployment. This plugin gives Claude, Codex, and other agents the CloudBurn MCP server plus a skill that teaches them when to scan infrastructure as code, when to check a live AWS account, and how to act on the findings.
