chore(precommit): scope zizmor hook to workflows, actions and dependabot

The zizmor pre-commit hook used `files: ^\.github/`, which matched any
file under `.github/` — including issue templates, the labeler config,
CODEOWNERS, etc. zizmor only audits GitHub Actions workflows, composite
actions and Dependabot configs, so on any commit that touched a
non-auditable `.github/` file it failed with `exit code 3`:

    failed to validate input as workflow: input does not match expected
    validation schema
    fatal: no audit was performed
    error: no inputs collected

Narrow the regex to `^\.github/(workflows|actions)/.+\.ya?ml$|^\.github/dependabot\.ya?ml$`
so zizmor only inspects what it can audit. Verified locally: the hook
skips on `.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/*.yml` and the manifest file itself,
and still runs (and passes) on `.github/workflows/api-bump-version.yml`.

+# 🛡️ GitHub Action

+The official **Prowler GitHub Action** runs Prowler scans in your GitHub workflows using the official [`prowlercloud/prowler`](https://hub.docker.com/r/prowlercloud/prowler) Docker image. Scans run on any [supported provider](https://docs.prowler.com/user-guide/providers/), with optional [`--push-to-cloud`](https://docs.prowler.com/user-guide/tutorials/prowler-app-import-findings) to send findings to Prowler Cloud and optional SARIF upload so findings show up in the repo's **Security → Code scanning** tab and as inline PR annotations.

-## [1.26.0] (Prowler UNRELEASED)
+## [1.27.0] (Prowler UNRELEASED)
+
+### 🚀 Added
+
+- `scan-reset-ephemeral-resources` post-scan task zeroes `failed_findings_count` for resources missing from the latest full-scope scan, keeping ephemeral resources from polluting the Resources page sort [(#10929)](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler/pull/10929)
+
+---
+
+## [1.26.1] (Prowler v5.25.1)
+
+### 🐞 Fixed
+
+- Attack Paths: AWS scans no longer fail when enabled regions cannot be retrieved, and scans stuck in `scheduled` state are now cleaned up after the stale threshold [(#10917)](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler/pull/10917)
+- Scan report and compliance downloads now redirect to a presigned S3 URL instead of streaming through the API worker, preventing gunicorn timeouts on large files [(#10927)](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler/pull/10927)
+
+---
+
+## [1.26.0] (Prowler v5.25.0)
+
+### 🚀 Added
+
+- CIS Benchmark PDF report generation for scans, exposing the latest CIS version per provider via `GET /scans/{id}/cis/{name}/` [(#10650)](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler/pull/10650)
+- `/overviews/resource-groups` (resource inventory), `/overviews/categories` and `/overviews/attack-surfaces` now reflect newly-muted findings without waiting for the next scan. The post-mute `reaggregate-all-finding-group-summaries` task now also dispatches `aggregate_scan_resource_group_summaries_task`, `aggregate_scan_category_summaries_task` and `aggregate_attack_surface_task` per latest scan of every `(provider, day)` pair, rebuilding `ScanGroupSummary`, `ScanCategorySummary` and `AttackSurfaceOverview` alongside the tables already covered in #10827 [(#10843)](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler/pull/10843)
+- Install zizmor v1.24.1 in API Docker image for GitHub Actions workflow scanning [(#10607)](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler/pull/10607)
 
 ### 🔄 Changed
 
-- Allows tenant owners to expel users from their organizations  [(#10787)](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler/pull/10787)
+- Allows tenant owners to expel users from their organizations [(#10787)](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler/pull/10787)
+- `aggregate_findings`, `aggregate_attack_surface`, `aggregate_scan_resource_group_summaries` and `aggregate_scan_category_summaries` now upsert via `bulk_create(update_conflicts=True, ...)` instead of the prior `ignore_conflicts=True` / plain INSERT / `already backfilled` short-circuit. Re-runs triggered by the post-mute reaggregation pipeline no longer trip the `unique_*_per_scan` constraints nor silently drop updates, and are race-safe under concurrent writers (e.g. scan completion overlapping with a fresh mute rule) [(#10843)](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler/pull/10843)
+- Rename the scan-category and scan-resource-group summary aggregators from `backfill_*` to `aggregate_*` [(#10843)](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler/pull/10843)
+
+### 🐞 Fixed
+
+- `generate_outputs_task` crashing with `KeyError` for compliance frameworks listed by `get_compliance_frameworks` but not loadable by `Compliance.get_bulk` [(#10903)](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler/pull/10903)
+
+---
+
+## [1.25.4] (Prowler v5.24.4)
+
+### 🚀 Added
+
+- `DJANGO_SENTRY_TRACES_SAMPLE_RATE` env var (default `0.02`) enables Sentry performance tracing for the API [(#10873)](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler/pull/10873)
+
+### 🔄 Changed
+
+- Attack Paths: Neo4j driver `connection_acquisition_timeout` is now configurable via `NEO4J_CONN_ACQUISITION_TIMEOUT` (default lowered from 120 s to 15 s) [(#10873)](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler/pull/10873)
+
+### 🐞 Fixed
+
+- `/tmp/prowler_api_output` saturation in compliance report workers: the final `rmtree` in `generate_compliance_reports` now only waits on frameworks actually generated for the provider (so unsupported frameworks no longer leave a placeholder `results` entry that blocks cleanup), output directories are created lazily per enabled framework, and both `generate_compliance_reports` and `generate_outputs_task` run an opportunistic stale cleanup at task start with a 48h age threshold, a per-host `fcntl` throttle, a 50-deletions-per-run cap, and guards that protect EXECUTING scans and scans whose `output_location` still points to a local path (metadata lookups routed through the admin DB so RLS does not hide those rows) [(#10874)](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler/pull/10874)
 
 ---
 
 ## [1.25.3] (Prowler v5.24.3)
 
+### 🚀 Added
+
+- `/overviews/findings`, `/overviews/findings-severity` and `/overviews/services` now reflect newly-muted findings without waiting for the next scan. The post-mute `reaggregate-all-finding-group-summaries` task was extended to re-run the same per-scan pipeline that scan completion runs (`ScanSummary`, `DailySeveritySummary`, `FindingGroupDailySummary`) on the latest scan of every `(provider, day)` pair, keeping the pre-aggregated tables in sync with `Finding.muted` updates [(#10827)](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler/pull/10827)
+
 ### 🐞 Fixed
 
 - Finding groups aggregated `status` now treats muted findings as resolved: a group is `FAIL` only while at least one non-muted FAIL remains, otherwise it is `PASS` (including fully-muted groups). The `filter[status]` filter and the `sort=status` ordering share the same semantics, keeping `status` consistent with `fail_count` and the orthogonal `muted` flag [(#10825)](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler/pull/10825)
+- `aggregate_findings` is now idempotent: it deletes the scan's existing `ScanSummary` rows before `bulk_create`, so re-runs (such as the post-mute reaggregation pipeline) no longer violate the `unique_scan_summary` constraint and no longer abort the downstream `DailySeveritySummary` / `FindingGroupDailySummary` recomputation for the affected scan [(#10827)](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler/pull/10827)
+- Attack Paths: Findings on AWS were silently dropped during the Neo4j merge for resources whose Cartography node is keyed by a short identifier (e.g. EC2 instances) rather than the full ARN [(#10839)](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler/pull/10839)

-        Loads a binary file (e.g., ZIP or CSV) and returns its content and filename.
+        Resolve a report file location and return the bytes (filesystem) or a redirect (S3).
 
         Depending on the input parameters, this method supports loading:
-        - From S3 using a direct key.
-        - From S3 by listing objects under a prefix and matching suffix.
-        - From the local filesystem using glob pattern matching.
+        - From S3 using a direct key, returns a 302 to a short-lived presigned URL.
+        - From S3 by listing objects under a prefix and matching suffix, returns a 302 to a short-lived presigned URL.
+        - From the local filesystem using glob pattern matching, returns the file bytes.
+
+        The S3 branch never streams bytes through the worker; this prevents gunicorn
+        worker timeouts on large reports.
 
         Args:
             path_pattern (str): The key or glob pattern representing the file location.
             s3 (bool, optional): Whether the file is stored in S3. Defaults to False.
             bucket (str, optional): The name of the S3 bucket, required if `s3=True`. Defaults to None.
             list_objects (bool, optional): If True and `s3=True`, list objects by prefix to find the file. Defaults to False.
+            content_type (str, optional): On the S3 branch, forwarded as `ResponseContentType`
+                so the presigned download advertises the same Content-Type the API used to send.
+                Ignored on the filesystem branch.
 
         Returns:
-            tuple[bytes, str]: A tuple containing the file content as bytes and the filename if successful.
-            Response: A DRF `Response` object with an appropriate status and error detail if an error occurs.
+            tuple[bytes, str]: For the filesystem branch, the file content and filename.
+            HttpResponseRedirect: For the S3 branch on success, a 302 redirect to a presigned `GetObject` URL.
+            Response: For any error path, a DRF `Response` with an appropriate status and detail.

+    findings, but reset the denormalized counter that drives the Resources page
+    sort so they stop ranking at the top.
+
+    Skipped (no-op) when:
+        - The scan is not in COMPLETED state.

+
+    Query design (must scale to 500k+ resources per provider):
+        Phase 1 — collect ephemeral IDs with one anti-join read.
+            Outer filter ``(tenant_id, provider_id, failed_findings_count > 0)``
+            uses ``resources_tenant_provider_idx``. The correlated
+            ``NOT EXISTS`` subquery hits the implicit unique index
+            ``(tenant_id, scan_id, resource_id)`` on ``ResourceScanSummary``.
+            ``NOT EXISTS`` (vs ``NOT IN``) is null-safe and lets the planner
+            choose between hash anti-join and indexed nested-loop anti-join.
+            ``.iterator(chunk_size=...)`` skips the queryset cache so memory
+            stays bounded while streaming UUIDs.
+        Phase 2 — UPDATE in fixed-size batches.
+            One large UPDATE would hold row-exclusive locks for seconds and
+            create a WAL spike. Batched UPDATEs by ``id__in`` (~1k rows each)
+            hit the primary key, keep each lock window ~50ms, bound WAL chunks,
+            and let other writers proceed between batches.
+            ``failed_findings_count__gt=0`` in the UPDATE is idempotent under
+            concurrent scans and skips no-op rewrites.
+        Reads use the primary DB, not the replica: ``ResourceScanSummary`` rows
+        were written by the same scan task that triggered this one, so replica
+        lag could falsely classify scanned resources as ephemeral.
+
+        Scope detection (``Scan.is_full_scope()``) derives the set of scoping
+        scanner_args from ``prowler.lib.scan.scan.Scan.__init__`` via
+        introspection, so the API can never drift from the SDK's filter
+        contract. Imported scans are also rejected by trigger — they may only

 ### Naming Format for Checks
 
-Checks must be named following the format: `service_subservice_resource_action`.
+If you already know the check name when creating a request or implementing a check, use a descriptive identifier with lowercase letters and underscores only.
+
+Recommended patterns:
+
+- `<service>_<resource>_<best_practice>`
 
 The name components are:
 
-- `service` – The main service being audited (e.g., ec2, entra, iam, etc.)
-- `subservice` – An individual component or subset of functionality within the service that is being audited. This may correspond to a shortened version of the class attribute accessed within the check. If there is no subservice, just omit.
-- `resource` – The specific resource type being evaluated (e.g., instance, policy, role, etc.)
-- `action` – The security aspect or configuration being checked (e.g., public, encrypted, enabled, etc.)
+- `service` – The main service or product area being audited (e.g., ec2, entra, iam, bedrock).
+- `resource` – The resource, feature, or configuration being evaluated. It can be a single word or a compound phrase joined with underscores (e.g., instance, policy, guardrail, sensitive_information_filter).
+- `best_practice` – The expected secure state or best practice being checked (e.g., enabled, encrypted, restricted, configured, not_publicly_accessible).
+
+Additional guidance:
+
+- Use underscores only. Do not use hyphens.
+- Keep the name specific enough to describe the behavior of the check.

+**Prowler Studio is an AI workflow that ensures Claude Code follows Prowler's skills, guardrails, and best practices when creating new security checks.** What lands in the resulting pull request is consistent, tested, and ready for human review — not half-correct boilerplate that needs to be rewritten.
+
+<Info>
+**Contributor Tool**: Prowler Studio is a workflow for advanced contributors adding new Prowler security checks. It is not part of Prowler Cloud, Prowler App, or Prowler CLI.

+
+<Warning>
+**Preview Feature**: Prowler Studio is under active development and breaking changes are expected. Please report issues or share feedback on [GitHub](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler-studio/issues) or in the [Slack community](https://goto.prowler.com/slack).
+</Warning>
+

+</Card>
+
+## The Problem
+
+Adding a new check to [Prowler](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler) is more than writing detection logic. A correct check has to:
+
+- Match Prowler's exact service and check folder structure and naming conventions
+- Wire up metadata, severity, remediation, tests, and compliance mappings
+- Mirror the patterns used by the hundreds of existing checks in the same provider
+- Actually load when Prowler scans for available checks — silent structural mistakes are easy to make
+
+Asking a general-purpose AI assistant to do this usually means guessing. It misses conventions, skips tests, or invents structure that looks right but does not load. The result is a half-correct PR that needs to be reviewed line by line or rewritten.
+
+## The Solution
+
+Prowler Studio enforces the workflow end-to-end. Describe the check once — a markdown ticket, a Jira issue, or a GitHub issue — and the workflow:
+
+1. **Loads Prowler-specific skills into every agent.** Every step starts with the same context an experienced Prowler engineer would have in mind. See [AI Skills System](/developer-guide/ai-skills) for how skills are structured.
+2. **Runs specialized agents in sequence.** Implementation → testing → compliance mapping → review → PR creation. Each agent has one job and a tight scope.
+3. **Verifies as it goes.** The check must load in Prowler. Tests must pass. If something fails, the agent fixes it and re-runs (up to a bounded number of attempts) before moving on.
+4. **Produces a complete pull request.** Branch, passing check, tests, compliance mappings, and a pull request waiting for human review.
+
+The result is a consistent starting point, every time, on every supported provider.
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Install
+
+Prowler Studio requires [`uv`](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/) — see the official [installation guide](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/).
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler-studio
+cd prowler-studio
+uv sync
+source .venv/bin/activate
+```
+
+### Describe the Check
+
+A ticket is a structured markdown description of the check to create. It is the only input the workflow needs; every agent (implementation, testing, compliance mapping, review, PR creation) uses it as the source of truth, so the more concrete it is, the closer the first PR will land to the desired outcome.
+
+The ticket can be supplied in three ways:
+
+- **Local markdown file** → `--ticket path/to/ticket.md`
+- **Jira issue** → `--jira-url https://...` (uses the issue body)
+- **GitHub issue** → `--github-url https://...` (uses the issue body)
+
+The content should follow the **New Check Request** template:
+
+- The local copy at [`check_ticket_template.md`](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler-studio/blob/main/check_ticket_template.md) covers `--ticket` and Jira tickets.
+- A prefilled GitHub form is also available: [Create a New Check Request issue](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler/issues/new?template=new-check-request.yml).
+
+Sections marked *Optional* can be skipped; everything else helps the agents make the right decisions.
+
+### Run the Workflow
+
+From a local markdown ticket:
+
+```bash
+prowler-studio --ticket check_ticket.md
+```
+
+From a Jira ticket:
+
+```bash
+prowler-studio --jira-url https://mycompany.atlassian.net/browse/PROJ-123
+```
+
+From a GitHub issue:
+
+```bash
+prowler-studio --github-url https://github.com/owner/repo/issues/123
+```
+
+<Note>
+Provide exactly one of `--ticket`, `--jira-url`, or `--github-url`.
+</Note>
+
+Keep changes local (no push, no pull request):
+
+```bash
+prowler-studio -b feat/my-check --ticket check_ticket.md --local
+```
+
+### What You Get
+
+After a successful run the working environment contains:
+
+- A new branch on a clean Prowler worktree containing the check, metadata, tests, and compliance mappings
+- A pull request opened against Prowler (skipped with `--local`)
+- A timestamped log file under `logs/` capturing every step the agents took
+
+## CLI Options
+
+| Option | Short | Description |
+|--------|-------|-------------|
+| `--branch` | `-b` | Branch name (default: `feat/<ticket>-<check_name>` or `feat/<check_name>`) |
+| `--ticket` | `-t` | Path to a markdown check ticket file |
+| `--jira-url` | `-j` | Jira ticket URL (e.g., `https://mycompany.atlassian.net/browse/PROJ-123`) |
+| `--github-url` | `-g` | GitHub issue URL (e.g., `https://github.com/owner/repo/issues/123`) |
+| `--working-dir` | `-w` | Working directory for the Prowler clone (default: `./working`) |
+| `--no-worktree` |  | Legacy mode — work directly on the main clone instead of using worktrees |
+| `--cleanup-worktree` |  | Remove the worktree after a successful pull request is created |
+| `--local` |  | Keep changes local — skip push and pull request creation |
+
+## Configuration
+
+Set these environment variables depending on the input source:
+
+| Variable | When Needed | Purpose |
+|----------|-------------|---------|
+| `GITHUB_TOKEN` | `--github-url` (recommended) | Higher GitHub API rate limits and access to private issues |
+| `JIRA_SITE_URL` | `--jira-url` | Jira site, e.g. `https://mycompany.atlassian.net` |
+| `JIRA_EMAIL` | `--jira-url` | Email of the Jira account used to fetch the ticket |
+| `JIRA_API_TOKEN` | `--jira-url` | API token for the Jira account |

+### Scan Stuck in Executing State After Worker Crash
+
+When running Prowler App via Docker Compose, a scan may remain indefinitely in the `executing` state if the worker process crashes (for example, due to an Out of Memory condition) before it can update the scan status. Since it is not currently possible to cancel a scan in `executing` state through the UI, the workaround is to manually update the scan record in the database.
+
+**Root Cause:**
+
+The Celery worker process terminates unexpectedly (OOM, node failure, etc.) before transitioning the scan state to `completed` or `failed`. The scan record remains in `executing` with no active process to advance it.
+
+**Solution:**
+
+Connect to the database using the `prowler_admin` user. Due to Row-Level Security (RLS), the default database user cannot see scan records — you must use `prowler_admin`:
+
+```bash
+psql -U prowler_admin -d prowler_db
+```
+
+Identify the stuck scan by filtering for scans in `executing` state:
+
+```sql
+SELECT id, name, state, started_at FROM scans WHERE state = 'executing';
+```
+
+Update the scan state to `failed` using the scan ID:
+
+```sql
+UPDATE scans SET state = 'failed' WHERE id = '<scan-id>';
+```
+
+After this change, the scan will appear as failed in the UI and you can launch a new scan.
+
+<Note>
+A feature to cancel executing scans directly from the UI is being tracked in [GitHub Issue #6893](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler/issues/6893).

-<Note>
-Currently, this tool is only available for creating checks for the AWS provider.
-
-</Note>
-<Note>
-If you are looking for a way to create new checks for all the supported providers, you can use [Prowler Studio](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler-studio), it is an AI-powered toolkit for generating and managing security checks for Prowler (better version of the Check Kreator).
-
-</Note>
-## Introduction
-
-**Prowler Check Kreator** is a utility designed to streamline the creation of new checks for Prowler. This tool generates all necessary files required to add a new check to the Prowler repository. Specifically, it creates:
-
-- A dedicated folder for the check.
-- The main check script.
-- A metadata file with essential details.
-- A folder and file structure for testing the check.
-
-## Usage
-
-To use the tool, execute the main script with the following command:
-
-```bash
-python util/prowler_check_kreator/prowler_check_kreator.py <prowler_provider> <check_name>
-```
-
-Parameters:
-
-- `<prowler_provider>`: Currently only AWS is supported.
-- `<check_name>`: The name you wish to assign to the new check.
-
-## AI integration
-
-This tool optionally integrates AI to assist in generating the check code and metadata file content. When AI assistance is chosen, the tool uses [Gemini](https://gemini.google.com/) to produce preliminary code and metadata.
-
-<Note>
-For this feature to work, you must have the library `google-generativeai` installed in your Python environment.
-
-</Note>
-<Warning>
-AI-generated code and metadata might contain errors or require adjustments to align with specific Prowler requirements. Carefully review all AI-generated content before committing.
-
-</Warning>
-To enable AI assistance, simply confirm when prompted by the tool. Additionally, ensure that the `GEMINI_API_KEY` environment variable is set with a valid Gemini API key. For instructions on obtaining your API key, refer to the [Gemini documentation](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/api-key).

+## Choose The Right Method
 
-Prowler can retrieve credentials from an external URI endpoint. Provide the URI via the `--credentials-uri` flag or the `ALIBABA_CLOUD_CREDENTIALS_URI` environment variable. The URI must return credentials in the standard JSON format.

+
+## RAM User And AccessKey
+
+This is the simplest setup for a workstation or a basic CI runner.
+
+### Create The RAM User
+
+1. Open the [RAM console](https://ram.console.alibabacloud.com/).
+2. Go to `Identities` > `Users`.
+3. Click `Create User`.
+4. Enter a logon name and display name.
+5. In `Access Configuration`, select `Permanent AccessKey`.
+
+![Create a RAM user and enable Permanent AccessKey](./img/create_user.png)
+
+6. Save the generated `AccessKey ID` and `AccessKey Secret` immediately. Alibaba Cloud only shows the secret once.
+7. Grant the user the read permissions required for the Alibaba Cloud services you want Prowler to scan.
+
+![Grant permissions to the RAM user](./img/grant_permissions.png)
+
+Alibaba Cloud walkthroughs with current console screenshots:

+- [Create a RAM user](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/en/ram/user-guide/create-a-ram-user)
+- [Create an AccessKey pair](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/en/ram/user-guide/create-an-accesskey-pair)
+- [Grant permissions to a RAM user](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/en/ram/user-guide/grant-permissions-to-the-ram-user)
+
+### Use The AccessKey With Prowler
 
 ```bash
-# Using CLI flag
-prowler alibabacloud --credentials-uri http://localhost:8080/credentials
-
-# Or using environment variable
-export ALIBABA_CLOUD_CREDENTIALS_URI="http://localhost:8080/credentials"
-prowler alibabacloud
-```
-
-### OIDC Role Authentication (Recommended for ACK/Kubernetes)
-
-OIDC authentication assumes the specified role using an OIDC token. This is the most secure method for containerized applications running in ACK (Alibaba Container Service for Kubernetes) with RRSA enabled.
-
-The role ARN can be provided via the `--oidc-role-arn` flag or the `ALIBABA_CLOUD_ROLE_ARN` environment variable. The OIDC provider ARN and token file must be set via environment variables:
-
-- `ALIBABA_CLOUD_OIDC_PROVIDER_ARN`
-- `ALIBABA_CLOUD_OIDC_TOKEN_FILE`
-
-```bash
-# Using CLI flag for role ARN
-export ALIBABA_CLOUD_OIDC_PROVIDER_ARN="acs:ram::123456789012:oidc-provider/ack-rrsa-provider"
-export ALIBABA_CLOUD_OIDC_TOKEN_FILE="/var/run/secrets/tokens/oidc-token"
-prowler alibabacloud --oidc-role-arn acs:ram::123456789012:role/YourRole
-
-# Or using all environment variables
-export ALIBABA_CLOUD_ROLE_ARN="acs:ram::123456789012:role/YourRole"
-export ALIBABA_CLOUD_OIDC_PROVIDER_ARN="acs:ram::123456789012:oidc-provider/ack-rrsa-provider"
-export ALIBABA_CLOUD_OIDC_TOKEN_FILE="/var/run/secrets/tokens/oidc-token"
-prowler alibabacloud
-```
-
-### ECS RAM Role (Recommended for ECS Instances)
-
-When running on an ECS instance with an attached RAM role, Prowler can obtain credentials from the ECS instance metadata service.
-
-```bash
-# Using CLI argument
-prowler alibabacloud --ecs-ram-role RoleName
-
-# Or using environment variable
-export ALIBABA_CLOUD_ECS_METADATA="RoleName"
-prowler alibabacloud
-```
-
-### RAM Role Assumption (Recommended for Cross-Account)
-
-For cross-account access, use RAM role assumption. Provide the initial credentials (access keys) via environment variables and the target role ARN via the `--role-arn` flag or the `ALIBABA_CLOUD_ROLE_ARN` environment variable.
-
-The `--role-session-name` flag customizes the session identifier (defaults to `ProwlerAssessmentSession`).
-
-```bash
-# Using CLI flags
 export ALIBABA_CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_ID="your-access-key-id"
 export ALIBABA_CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET="your-access-key-secret"
-prowler alibabacloud --role-arn acs:ram::123456789012:role/ProwlerAuditRole --role-session-name MyAuditSession
 
-# Or using all environment variables
-export ALIBABA_CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_ID="your-access-key-id"
-export ALIBABA_CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET="your-access-key-secret"
-export ALIBABA_CLOUD_ROLE_ARN="acs:ram::123456789012:role/ProwlerAuditRole"
 prowler alibabacloud
 ```
 
-### STS Temporary Credentials
+Prowler also accepts `ALIYUN_ACCESS_KEY_ID` and `ALIYUN_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET` for compatibility, but `ALIBABA_CLOUD_*` is the preferred naming.
 
-If you already have temporary STS credentials, you can provide them via environment variables.
+### Use The Default Credential Chain
+
+If you prefer not to export credentials in every shell, you can store them with the Alibaba Cloud CLI and let Prowler reuse the default credential chain from `~/.aliyun/config.json`.
+
+```bash
+aliyun configure --mode AK
+
+prowler alibabacloud
+```
+
+For profile management details, see Alibaba Cloud's [CLI credential management guide](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/en/cli/other-configure-command-operations).
+
+## RAM Role Assumption (Recommended)
+
+Use this when:
+
+- you want short-lived credentials instead of long-lived AccessKeys in Prowler,
+- you are scanning another Alibaba Cloud account, or
+- you are configuring Alibaba Cloud in Prowler Cloud and want to provide a `Role ARN`.
+
+This flow has two parts:
+
+1. A source identity that can call `sts:AssumeRole`.
+2. A target RAM role that has the scan permissions.
+
+### Create The Source Identity
+
+Create a RAM user with an AccessKey pair by following the steps in [RAM User And AccessKey](#ram-user-and-accesskey), or reuse an existing automation identity.
+
+### Create The Target Role
+
+1. Open the [RAM console](https://ram.console.alibabacloud.com/).
+2. Go to `Identities` > `Roles`.
+3. Click `Create Role`.
+4. Set `Principal Type` to `Cloud Account`.
+5. Choose:
+   - `Current Account` if the RAM user and the role are in the same account.
+   - `Other Account` if the RAM user belongs to a different Alibaba Cloud account.
+6. Give the role a name such as `ProwlerAuditRole`.
+7. Attach the scan permissions to the role.
+8. Copy the role ARN in the format `acs:ram::<account-id>:role/<role-name>`.
+
+If you want to restrict the role so that only one RAM user or one RAM role can assume it, edit the trust policy accordingly.
+

+- [Create a RAM role for a trusted Alibaba Cloud account](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/en/ram/user-guide/create-a-ram-role-for-a-trusted-alibaba-cloud-account)
+- [Assume a RAM role](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/doc-detail/116820.html)
+
+### Allow The Source Identity To Assume The Role
+
+The source RAM user must be able to call `sts:AssumeRole`.
+
+The easiest starting point is to attach Alibaba Cloud's `AliyunSTSAssumeRoleAccess` policy to that RAM user. If you want tighter scope, attach a custom policy limited to the target role ARN.
+
+### Run Prowler
+
+```bash
+export ALIBABA_CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_ID="source-user-access-key-id"
+export ALIBABA_CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET="source-user-access-key-secret"
+
+prowler alibabacloud \
+  --role-arn acs:ram::123456789012:role/ProwlerAuditRole \
+  --role-session-name ProwlerAssessmentSession
+```
+
+You can also set the role ARN with `ALIBABA_CLOUD_ROLE_ARN`, but the source AccessKey pair is still required for this flow.
+
+## STS Temporary Credentials
+
+Use this if another tool already gives you a temporary `AccessKey ID`, `AccessKey Secret`, and `SecurityToken`.
+
+This is common when:
+
+- a CI platform brokers Alibaba credentials for the job,
+- your internal tooling already calls `AssumeRole`, or
+- you want to test with a short-lived session before switching to a RAM role flow.
 
 ```bash
 export ALIBABA_CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_ID="your-sts-access-key-id"
 export ALIBABA_CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET="your-sts-access-key-secret"
 export ALIBABA_CLOUD_SECURITY_TOKEN="your-sts-security-token"
+
 prowler alibabacloud
 ```
 
-### Permanent Access Keys
-
-You can use standard permanent access keys via environment variables.
+You can also store the session in the Alibaba CLI configuration:
 
 ```bash
-export ALIBABA_CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_ID="your-access-key-id"
-export ALIBABA_CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET="your-access-key-secret"
+aliyun configure --mode StsToken
+
 prowler alibabacloud
 ```
 
-## Required Permissions
+<Note>
+Prowler does not mint standalone STS sessions for you. If you use this method, you must provide all three STS values from your external workflow.
+</Note>
 
-The credentials used by Prowler should have the minimum required permissions to audit the resources. At a minimum, the following permissions are recommended:
+## ECS RAM Role
 
-- `ram:GetUser`
-- `ram:ListUsers`
-- `ram:GetPasswordPolicy`
-- `ram:GetAccountSummary`
-- `ram:ListVirtualMFADevices`
-- `ram:ListGroups`
-- `ram:ListPolicies`
-- `ram:ListAccessKeys`
-- `ram:GetLoginProfile`
-- `ram:ListPoliciesForUser`
-- `ram:ListGroupsForUser`
-- `actiontrail:DescribeTrails`
-- `oss:GetBucketLogging`
-- `oss:GetBucketAcl`
-- `rds:DescribeDBInstances`
-- `rds:DescribeDBInstanceAttribute`
-- `ecs:DescribeInstances`
-- `vpc:DescribeVpcs`
-- `sls:ListProject`
-- `sls:ListAlerts`
-- `sls:ListLogStores`
-- `sls:GetLogStore`
+Use this when Prowler runs on an ECS instance and you do not want to store any AccessKeys on disk.
+
+### Create And Attach The Role
+
+1. Open the [RAM console](https://ram.console.alibabacloud.com/).
+2. Go to `Identities` > `Roles`.
+3. Click `Create Role`.
+4. Set the trusted entity to `Alibaba Cloud Service`.
+5. Select `ECS` as the trusted service.
+6. Attach the read permissions required for the scan.
+7. Attach that RAM role to the ECS instance that runs Prowler.
+
+Alibaba Cloud guide:
+
+- [Instance RAM roles](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/en/doc-detail/54579.html)
+
+### Run Prowler
+
+```bash
+prowler alibabacloud --ecs-ram-role ProwlerEcsRole
+```
+
+Or:
+
+```bash
+export ALIBABA_CLOUD_ECS_METADATA="ProwlerEcsRole"
+
+prowler alibabacloud
+```
+
+## OIDC Role Authentication
+
+Use this when Prowler runs in ACK or another Kubernetes environment that provides an OIDC token file.
+
+### Create The OIDC Identity Provider
+
+1. Open the [RAM console](https://ram.console.alibabacloud.com/).
+2. Go to `Integrations` > `SSO`.
+3. Select `Role-based SSO`, then the `OIDC` tab.
+4. Click `Create IdP`.
+5. Fill in:
+   - `IdP Name`
+   - `Issuer URL`
+   - `Fingerprint`
+   - `Client ID`
+6. Create the IdP and note its ARN.
+
+Alibaba Cloud guides:
+
+- [Manage an OIDC IdP](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/en/ram/manage-an-oidc-idp)
+- [Overview of role-based OIDC SSO](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/en/ram/overview-of-oidc-based-sso)
+
+### Create The RAM Role Trusted By That IdP
+
+Create a RAM role whose trusted entity is the OIDC IdP, then attach the scan permissions to that role.
+
+If you are running in ACK with RRSA, this is typically the role bound to the service account that runs Prowler.
+
+### Provide The OIDC Variables To Prowler
+
+Prowler currently expects:
+
+- `--oidc-role-arn` for the RAM role ARN,
+- `ALIBABA_CLOUD_OIDC_PROVIDER_ARN` for the OIDC provider ARN,
+- `ALIBABA_CLOUD_OIDC_TOKEN_FILE` for the token file path.
+
+Example:
+
+```bash
+export ALIBABA_CLOUD_OIDC_PROVIDER_ARN="acs:ram::123456789012:oidc-provider/ack-rrsa-provider"
+export ALIBABA_CLOUD_OIDC_TOKEN_FILE="/var/run/secrets/ack.alibabacloud.com/rrsa-tokens/token"
+
+prowler alibabacloud --oidc-role-arn acs:ram::123456789012:role/ProwlerAckRole
+```
+
+If you use ACK RRSA, Alibaba's `ack-pod-identity-webhook` can inject the three required environment variables and mount the token file into the pod automatically:
+
+- [ack-pod-identity-webhook](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/en/cs/user-guide/ack-pod-identity-webhook)
+- [Use RRSA to authorize different pods to access different cloud services](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/doc-detail/356611.html)
+
+<Note>
+Even if your pod already exposes `ALIBABA_CLOUD_ROLE_ARN`, use `--oidc-role-arn` with Prowler. The provider currently reads the role ARN for OIDC from the CLI argument.
+</Note>
+
+## Credentials URI
+
+Use this only if you already operate an internal credential broker that returns temporary Alibaba Cloud credentials over HTTP.
+
+The endpoint must return a JSON body with this structure:
+
+```json
+{
+  "Code": "Success",
+  "AccessKeyId": "STS.xxxxx",
+  "AccessKeySecret": "xxxxx",
+  "SecurityToken": "xxxxx",
+  "Expiration": "2026-04-23T10:00:00Z"
+}
+```
+
+Run Prowler with:
+
+```bash
+prowler alibabacloud --credentials-uri http://localhost:8080/credentials
+```
+
+Or:
+
+```bash
+export ALIBABA_CLOUD_CREDENTIALS_URI="http://localhost:8080/credentials"
+
+prowler alibabacloud
+```
+
+For the expected response format, see Alibaba Cloud's SDK guide for [URI credentials](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/en/sdk/developer-reference/v2-manage-access-credentials).
+
+## Permissions Guidance
+
+The exact minimum policy depends on the checks and services you enable.
+
+If you are using the RAM console's `Grant Permission` screen, search for the **system policy names** below. Alibaba Cloud often uses product policy names that differ from the service name shown in Prowler.
+
+### System Policies In The RAM Console
+
+| Prowler use case | Policy name in RAM console | Notes |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Source user for `--role-arn` | `AliyunSTSAssumeRoleAccess` | Grants `sts:AssumeRole` so the source identity can assume the scan role. |
+| RAM checks | `AliyunRAMReadOnlyAccess` | Covers RAM read APIs such as users, groups, policies, MFA devices, and account alias. |
+| ECS checks | `AliyunECSReadOnlyAccess` | Read-only ECS access. |
+| VPC checks | `AliyunVPCReadOnlyAccess` | Read-only VPC access. |
+| OSS checks | `AliyunOSSReadOnlyAccess` | Read-only OSS access. |
+| ActionTrail checks | `AliyunActionTrailReadOnlyAccess` | Read-only ActionTrail access. |
+| SLS checks | `AliyunLogReadOnlyAccess` | In the RAM console, Simple Log Service appears as `Log`. |
+| RDS checks | `AliyunRDSReadOnlyAccess` | Read-only RDS access. |
+| ACK / Container Service checks | `AliyunCSReadOnlyAccess` | In the RAM console, ACK permissions appear under `CS`. |
+| Security Center checks | `AliyunYundunSASReadOnlyAccess` | In the RAM console, Security Center appears under `Yundun SAS`. |
+
+### Recommended Starting Point
+
+For a broad Alibaba Cloud scan, the identity used by Prowler usually needs read access to the services Prowler currently audits, including:
+
+- `RAM`
+- `ECS`
+- `VPC`
+- `OSS`
+- `ActionTrail`
+- `Simple Log Service (SLS)`
+- `RDS`
+- `Container Service / ACK`
+- `Security Center`
+
+Use the following setup as a practical starting point:
+
+- If you use **static AccessKeys**, attach the read-only policies above directly to the RAM user used by Prowler.
+- If you use **RAM role assumption**, attach `AliyunSTSAssumeRoleAccess` to the source RAM user and attach the read-only policies above to the target scan role.
+- If you use **ECS RAM role** or **OIDC/RRSA**, attach the read-only policies above to the role assumed by Prowler.
+
+If you prefer a tighter custom policy instead of system policies, the current provider relies on read APIs such as:
+
+- `ram:Get*`, `ram:List*`
+- `ecs:Describe*`
+- `vpc:Describe*`
+- `oss:Get*`, `oss:List*`
+- `actiontrail:Describe*`
+- `log:Get*`, `log:List*`, `log:Query*`
+- `rds:Describe*`
+- `cs:Get*`, `cs:List*`, `cs:Describe*`
+- `yundun-sas:Get*`, `yundun-sas:Describe*`, `yundun-sas:List*`
+
+<Note>
+If a service is denied, Prowler can still start, but checks for that service may fail or return incomplete results.

+## Usage
+
+### AWS scan
+
+```yaml
+- uses: prowler-cloud/prowler@5.25
+  with:
+    provider: aws
+    extra-env: AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY AWS_SESSION_TOKEN
+  env:
+    AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID: ${{ secrets.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID }}
+    AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: ${{ secrets.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY }}
+    AWS_SESSION_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.AWS_SESSION_TOKEN }}
+```
+
+### Push findings to Prowler Cloud
+
+Send scan results directly to [Prowler Cloud](/user-guide/tutorials/prowler-app-import-findings) for centralized visibility, compliance tracking, and team collaboration.
+
+```yaml
+- uses: prowler-cloud/prowler@5.25
+  with:
+    provider: aws
+    push-to-cloud: true
+    extra-env: AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY AWS_SESSION_TOKEN
+  env:
+    AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID: ${{ secrets.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID }}
+    AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: ${{ secrets.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY }}
+    AWS_SESSION_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.AWS_SESSION_TOKEN }}
+    PROWLER_CLOUD_API_KEY: ${{ secrets.PROWLER_CLOUD_API_KEY }}
+```
+
+<Info>
+When `push-to-cloud: true`, `PROWLER_CLOUD_API_KEY` is forwarded automatically — set it in `env:` but don't list it in `extra-env`. Requires a Prowler Cloud subscription and an API key with the **Manage Ingestions** permission. See [API Keys](/user-guide/tutorials/prowler-app-api-keys).
+</Info>
+
+### Upload SARIF to GitHub Code Scanning
+
+Findings appear in the **Security** tab and as **inline PR annotations** when SARIF upload is enabled.
+
+```yaml
+name: Prowler IaC Scan
+on:
+  pull_request:
+
+permissions:
+  contents: read
+  security-events: write
+  actions: read
+
+jobs:

+          output-formats: sarif json-ocsf
+          upload-sarif: true
+          flags: --severity critical high
+```
+
+<Warning>
+**Requirements:**
+- Include `sarif` in `output-formats` (the action warns if this is missing).
+- The workflow needs `security-events: write` and `actions: read` permissions.
+- GitHub Code Scanning is free for public repositories. Private repositories require a [GitHub Code Security](https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/learning-about-github/about-github-advanced-security) license.
+</Warning>
+
+### Combine push-to-cloud with SARIF upload
+
+```yaml

+    AWS_SESSION_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.AWS_SESSION_TOKEN }}
+    PROWLER_CLOUD_API_KEY: ${{ secrets.PROWLER_CLOUD_API_KEY }}
+```
+
+### Scan the current repository with the GitHub provider
+
+```yaml
+name: Prowler GitHub Scan
+on:
+  schedule:
+    - cron: '0 0 * * 0'
+  workflow_dispatch:
+

+          flags: --repository ${{ github.repository }}
+          extra-env: GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN
+        env:
+          GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.PROWLER_GITHUB_PAT }}
+```
+
+<Info>
+`--repository` scans a single repo. Use `--organization <name>` instead to include org-level checks (MFA, security policies, etc.). See the [GitHub provider authentication](/user-guide/providers/github/authentication) for required token permissions.
+</Info>
+
+### Fail the PR on findings
+
+By default the action tolerates findings (exit code 3) and succeeds. Set `fail-on-findings: true` to fail the workflow step when Prowler detects findings. Combine with `--severity` to control which severity levels trigger the failure:
+
+```yaml
+- uses: prowler-cloud/prowler@5.25
+  with:
+    provider: iac
+    output-formats: sarif
+    upload-sarif: true
+    fail-on-findings: true
+    flags: --severity critical high
+```
+
+The scan step fails if critical/high findings are detected, blocking the PR via required checks. SARIF is still uploaded (the upload step runs with `if: always()`) so findings appear in the Security tab regardless.
+
+## Authentication
+
+Each provider requires its own credentials passed as environment variables. Credentials are **not forwarded automatically** — list every env var name you need in the `extra-env` input, and set its value via `env:` at the step, job, or workflow level (typically from `secrets.*`).
+
+Refer to the [Prowler provider docs](/user-guide/providers/) for the full list of variables each provider supports. Common ones:
+
+| Provider | Typical `extra-env` |
+|----------|---------------------|
+| AWS | `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY AWS_SESSION_TOKEN AWS_DEFAULT_REGION` (OIDC exports these automatically) |
+| Azure | `AZURE_CLIENT_ID AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET AZURE_TENANT_ID` |
+| GCP | `GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS CLOUDSDK_AUTH_ACCESS_TOKEN GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT` |
+| GitHub | `GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN` *(or `GITHUB_OAUTH_APP_TOKEN`, or `GITHUB_APP_ID GITHUB_APP_KEY`)* |
+| Kubernetes | `KUBECONFIG` |
+| Cloudflare | `CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN` *(or `CLOUDFLARE_API_KEY CLOUDFLARE_API_EMAIL`)* |
+
+<Info>
+`PROWLER_CLOUD_API_KEY` is auto-forwarded when `push-to-cloud: true` — no need to add it to `extra-env`.
+</Info>
+
+### AWS
+
+Use [aws-actions/configure-aws-credentials](https://github.com/aws-actions/configure-aws-credentials) with OIDC (recommended) or pass static credentials. OIDC sets `AWS_*` env vars on the runner, so you only forward them:
+
+```yaml
+permissions:
+  id-token: write
+  contents: read
+
+steps:
+  - uses: aws-actions/configure-aws-credentials@v4
+    with:
+      role-to-assume: arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/ProwlerRole
+      aws-region: eu-west-1
+
+  - uses: prowler-cloud/prowler@5.25
+    with:
+      provider: aws
+      extra-env: AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY AWS_SESSION_TOKEN AWS_DEFAULT_REGION
+```
+
+### Azure
+
+Use [azure/login](https://github.com/Azure/login) with a service principal or pass credentials directly:
+
+```yaml
+steps:
+  - uses: azure/login@v2
+    with:
+      creds: ${{ secrets.AZURE_CREDENTIALS }}
+
+  - uses: prowler-cloud/prowler@5.25
+    with:
+      provider: azure
+      extra-env: AZURE_CLIENT_ID AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET AZURE_TENANT_ID
+    env:
+      AZURE_CLIENT_ID: ${{ secrets.AZURE_CLIENT_ID }}
+      AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET: ${{ secrets.AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET }}
+      AZURE_TENANT_ID: ${{ secrets.AZURE_TENANT_ID }}
+```
+
+### GCP
+
+Use [google-github-actions/auth](https://github.com/google-github-actions/auth) with Workload Identity Federation (recommended):
+
+```yaml
+permissions:
+  id-token: write
+  contents: read
+
+steps:
+  - uses: google-github-actions/auth@v2
+    with:
+      workload_identity_provider: projects/123456/locations/global/workloadIdentityPools/my-pool/providers/my-provider
+      service_account: prowler@my-project.iam.gserviceaccount.com
+
+  - uses: prowler-cloud/prowler@5.25
+    with:
+      provider: gcp
+      extra-env: GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS CLOUDSDK_AUTH_ACCESS_TOKEN GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT
+```
+
+### Cloudflare
+
+Create a Cloudflare API Token with `Zone:Read`, `Zone Settings:Read`, and `DNS:Read` permissions ([provider auth docs](/user-guide/providers/cloudflare/authentication)). Then:
+
+```yaml
+- uses: prowler-cloud/prowler@5.25
+  with:
+    provider: cloudflare
+    extra-env: CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN
+  env:
+    CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN }}
+```
+
+## Outputs
+
+Scan results are written to `output/` in the workspace and uploaded as artifacts named `prowler-<provider>` with 30-day retention.
+
+When `upload-sarif` is enabled, SARIF results are also uploaded to GitHub Code Scanning and appear on the repository's **Security → Code scanning** tab, filtered by the branch that ran the scan.
+
+### Step summary
+
+The action writes a summary to the run page with a per-severity breakdown of failing checks, artifact and Code Scanning links, and (when `push-to-cloud: false`) a pointer to [Prowler Cloud](https://cloud.prowler.com) for continuous monitoring.

-title: 'Prowler Check Kreator'
----
-
-<Note>
-Currently, this tool is only available for creating checks for the AWS provider.
-
-</Note>
-
-<Note>
-If you are looking for a way to create new checks for all the supported providers, you can use [Prowler Studio](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler-studio), it is an AI-powered toolkit for generating and managing security checks for Prowler (better version of the Check Kreator).
-
-</Note>
-
-## Introduction
-
-**Prowler Check Kreator** is a utility designed to streamline the creation of new checks for Prowler. This tool generates all necessary files required to add a new check to the Prowler repository. Specifically, it creates:
-
-- A dedicated folder for the check.
-- The main check script.
-- A metadata file with essential details.
-- A folder and file structure for testing the check.
-
-## Usage
-
-To use the tool, execute the main script with the following command:
-
-```bash
-python util/prowler_check_kreator/prowler_check_kreator.py <prowler_provider> <check_name>
-```
-
-Parameters:
-
-- `<prowler_provider>`: Currently only AWS is supported.
-- `<check_name>`: The name you wish to assign to the new check.
-
-## AI integration
-
-This tool optionally integrates AI to assist in generating the check code and metadata file content. When AI assistance is chosen, the tool uses [Gemini](https://gemini.google.com/) to produce preliminary code and metadata.
-
-<Note>
-For this feature to work, you must have the library `google-generativeai` installed in your Python environment.
-
-</Note>
-
-<Warning>
-AI-generated code and metadata might contain errors or require adjustments to align with specific Prowler requirements. Carefully review all AI-generated content before committing.
-
-</Warning>
-
-To enable AI assistance, simply confirm when prompted by the tool. Additionally, ensure that the `GEMINI_API_KEY` environment variable is set with a valid Gemini API key. For instructions on obtaining your API key, refer to the [Gemini documentation](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/api-key).
