🟣 AutoPurple

Claude-powered AWS security automation: discover vulnerabilities with ScoutSuite, validate with Pacu, and remediate via AWS MCP servers

AutoPurple is an intelligent AWS security automation system that combines the power of ScoutSuite discovery, Claude AI analysis, Pacu validation, and AWS MCP servers for end-to-end security remediation.

🎯 Mission

AutoPurple automates the complete AWS security assessment and remediation pipeline:

ScoutSuite Discovery → Claude Analysis → Pacu Validation → Claude Planning → MCP Remediation → Validation

🏗️ Architecture

Core Principles

1. Extension over replacement: Reuse and extend ScoutSuite/Pacu; do not reimplement their core logic
2. Remediation only after validation: Never remediate unless Pacu confirms exploitability with evidence
3. MCP-only infra changes: All AWS changes are executed through AWS MCP servers
4. Security-first: Respect existing security mechanisms; least-privilege IAM; audit everything
5. Async Python 3.11+: Prefer asyncio/anyio, structured concurrency, timeouts, and robust error handling

Components

• ScoutSuite Adapter: AWS security discovery and findings normalization
• Pacu Adapter: Exploit validation using Pacu's SQLite session
• MCP Clients: AWS CCAPI, CloudFormation, and Documentation MCP servers
• Claude Planner: AI-driven analysis and remediation planning
• Pipeline Orchestrator: Async DAG for the complete workflow
• Post-Remediation Validator: Confirmation of successful fixes

🚀 Quick Start

Prerequisites

# Install dependencies
pip install -e .

# Install development dependencies
pip install -e ".[dev]"

Configuration

Create a .env file:

# Environment
AUTOPURPLE_ENV=dev

# AWS Configuration

# AI Configuration (optional)
CLAUDE_API_KEY=your_claude_api_key

# Database
AUTOPURPLE_DB_PATH=~/.autopurple/db.sqlite

Usage

# Run the complete pipeline
autopurple run --profile my-aws-profile --region us-west-2 --max-findings 20

# Run in dry-run mode (default)
autopurple run --dry-run

# Run discovery only
autopurple discover --output findings.json

# Run validation only
autopurple validate findings.json

# Check system health
autopurple health

# Show recent runs
autopurple status

📊 Database Schema

AutoPurple uses SQLite with the following schema (compatible with Pacu):

-- AutoPurple runs table
CREATE TABLE ap_runs (
    id TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
    started_at TIMESTAMP NOT NULL,
    ended_at TIMESTAMP,
    aws_account TEXT,
    aws_region TEXT,
    status TEXT CHECK(status IN ('started','validated','remediated','failed')) NOT NULL,
    notes TEXT
);

-- AutoPurple findings table
CREATE TABLE ap_findings (
    id TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
    run_id TEXT NOT NULL REFERENCES ap_runs(id) ON DELETE CASCADE,
    source TEXT CHECK(source IN ('scoutsuite')) NOT NULL,
    service TEXT NOT NULL,
    resource_id TEXT NOT NULL,
    title TEXT NOT NULL,
    severity TEXT CHECK(severity IN ('low','medium','high','critical')) NOT NULL,
    evidence JSON NOT NULL,
    status TEXT CHECK(status IN ('new','validated','dismissed','remediated')) NOT NULL DEFAULT 'new'
);

-- AutoPurple validations table
CREATE TABLE ap_validations (
    id TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
    finding_id TEXT NOT NULL REFERENCES ap_findings(id) ON DELETE CASCADE,
    tool TEXT CHECK(tool IN ('pacu')) NOT NULL,
    module TEXT NOT NULL,
    executed_at TIMESTAMP NOT NULL,
    result TEXT CHECK(result IN ('exploitable','not_exploitable','error')) NOT NULL,
    evidence JSON NOT NULL
);

-- AutoPurple remediations table
CREATE TABLE ap_remediations (
    id TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
    finding_id TEXT NOT NULL REFERENCES ap_findings(id) ON DELETE CASCADE,
    planned_change JSON NOT NULL,
    mcp_server TEXT NOT NULL,
    mcp_call JSON NOT NULL,
    executed_at TIMESTAMP,
    status TEXT CHECK(status IN ('planned','executed','rolled_back','failed')) NOT NULL,
    audit_ref TEXT
);

🔒 Security Considerations

Credential Management

• Use AWS profiles and STS tokens
• MFA required for AWS operations (configurable)
• Credentials stored in memory only
• Support for role assumption and chaining

Least Privilege

• Generate example IAM policies for MCP operations
• Validate all MCP plans against allowlist
• Audit trail for every automated action

Safety Features

• Dry-run mode enabled by default
• Explicit confirmation required for actual changes
• Rollback capabilities for all remediations
• Comprehensive logging and audit trails
