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.

How to install FedRAMP

git clone https://github.com/scytale-labs/GRC-Claude-Skills
cd GRC-Claude-Skills
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills

Commands — how to trigger FedRAMP

  • /fedramp FedRAMP 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
