imbi-plugin-aws 2.11.5

AWS plugins for Imbi (IAM Identity Center, SSM, CloudWatch Logs)

imbi-plugin-aws

AWS provider for the Imbi project logs and configuration tabs.

Plugins shipped

This package ships (or will ship) three entry points from one distribution:

Slug	Type	Status
aws-iam-ic	identity	✅ shipped
aws-ssm	configuration	planned
aws-cloudwatch-logs	logs	planned

The identity plugin federates each Imbi user into AWS via IAM Identity Center (formerly AWS SSO) and mints short-lived STS credentials per call. The data plugins (when shipped) consume those credentials transparently — see the contract below.

Identity consumption contract for the data plugins

When a project's (:Project)-[:USES_PLUGIN]->(:Plugin) edge or project-type fallback names this package's aws-iam-ic plugin via the identity_plugin_id edge property, the host-side hydrate_identity() helper runs aws-iam-ic.materialize() before calling the data plugin's handler. materialize() calls GetRoleCredentials against the IAM IC Portal API and returns short-lived STS keys in IdentityCredentials.extra:

IdentityCredentials(
    access_token=<unchanged IAM IC token>,
    extra={
        'aws_access_key_id':     'AKIA...',
        'aws_secret_access_key': '...',
        'aws_session_token':     '...',
        'aws_region':            'us-east-1',
        'aws_account_id':        '111111111111',
    },
)

The host attaches this to PluginContext.identity and the data plugins read it from there. Concretely, when aws-ssm (or aws-cloudwatch-logs) is invoked:

async def list_keys(self, ctx, credentials):
    if ctx.identity is not None:
        # IAM IC path: credentials dict is empty (no operator-supplied
        # static keys); read STS from ctx.identity.extra.
        aws_creds = ctx.identity.extra
    else:
        # Static-key path: ServiceApplication.plugin_credentials carries
        # access_key_id / secret_access_key / session_token.
        aws_creds = credentials
    session = aiobotocore.session.get_session()
    client = session.create_client(
        'ssm',
        region_name=aws_creds['aws_region'],
        aws_access_key_id=aws_creds['aws_access_key_id'],
        aws_secret_access_key=aws_creds['aws_secret_access_key'],
        aws_session_token=aws_creds.get('aws_session_token'),
    )
    ...

The data plugin doesn't know whether the caller is federated (via aws-iam-ic) or running as a service principal (legacy ServiceApplication.plugin_credentials). Same five well-known keys, sourced differently.

requires_identity=true on a future logs/configuration manifest would make the federated path mandatory; today both plugins fall back to the service-principal credentials when no ctx.identity is set.
