Ran a real Moderate-vs-LI-SaaS impact-level call for a PII-handling GovCloud SaaS: baseline (memory only) landed on the right Moderate/Agency-ATO conclusion but stayed generic, while the skill's references correctly cited the exact LI-SaaS disqualifier ('no PII beyond user-provided login credentials'), named the specific SSP attachments needed (PTA/PIA, Digital Identity Worksheet, CRM) and prioritized controls (IA-2, SC-13, PT family) tied to the SSN/PII in the scenario.
Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works
- Installs cleanly 5/5
- Triggers reliably 5/5
- Output vs. baseline 8/10
- Docs & honesty 5/5
What FedRAMP does
A knowledge skill covering FedRAMP impact levels (Low/LI-SaaS/Moderate/High), JAB vs Agency authorization paths, System Security Plan structure, NIST SP 800-53 Rev.5 control families, and continuous monitoring obligations for cloud providers selling to US federal agencies. Triggers on FedRAMP-specific questions (ATO, 3PAO, SSP, POAM, control baselines) and explicitly routes out-of-scope adjacent programs (DoD IL levels, CMMC) elsewhere.

Commands — how to trigger FedRAMP
-
/fedrampFedRAMP authorization advisor: impact-level selection, JAB vs Agency ATO, SSP outline, NIST 800-53 control mapping.
It also activates on plain-language prompts like these:
-
Should my SaaS handling applicant SSNs need FedRAMP Moderate or LI-SaaS? -
Help me outline the SSP for our federal-agency cloud application -
Which NIST 800-53 controls do we prioritize for a JAB authorization?
Frequently asked questions
- Is the FedRAMP skill free?
- Yes. The skill itself is free from scytale-labs/GRC-Claude-Skills. SkillProof publishes the install command and an independent test verdict at no cost.
- Does FedRAMP work with Claude Code?
- We tested it with Claude Code 2.x (agent harness) on Jul 15, 2026. Verdict: Tested · Works. Ran a real Moderate-vs-LI-SaaS impact-level call for a PII-handling GovCloud SaaS: baseline (memory only) landed on the right Moderate/Agency-ATO conclusion but stayed generic, while the skill's references correctly cited the exact LI-SaaS disqualifier ('no PII beyond user-provided login credentials'), named the specific SSP attachments needed (PTA/PIA, Digital Identity Worksheet, CRM) and prioritized controls (IA-2, SC-13, PT family) tied to the SSN/PII in the scenario.
- What is the FedRAMP SkillProof Score?
- 9.2/10 — installs cleanly 5/5, triggers reliably 5/5, output vs. baseline 8/10, docs & honesty 5/5.
- How do I install FedRAMP?
- Copy the install command from this page, run it in your terminal, and restart Claude Code. Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ inside a project.
- Can I use FedRAMP with Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex or other AI tools?
- The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.
