It does NOT capture data-plane events (e.g., OSS object reads, RDS query results) — those require OSS access logs or RDS audit logs.</li>\n<li>SLS integration is required for log analytics and alerting. Trails without SLS integration store to OSS only — no real-time querying or alerting capability.</li>\n<li>MLPS 2.0 Level 3 mandates 180-day audit log retention. Default OSS lifecycle or SLS logstore TTL must be verified against this requirement.</li>\n<li>Anomaly detection requires a baseline of normal admin patterns. Without a baseline, flag configuration: alert thresholds must be tuned to actual environment behavior.</li>\n<li>Multi-account organizations using Resource Directory should enable ActionTrail at the management account level to capture cross-account events.</li>\n<li>ActionTrail event categories: management events (always captured) vs. data events (opt-in, additional cost).</li>\n</ul>\n<h2>Lean operating rules</h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Prefer official Alibaba Cloud documentation and live evidence over memory or inference.</li>\n<li>Separate confirmed facts from inference. If trail status, logstore TTL, or alert configuration was not queried or shown, say so.</li>\n<li>Challenge trails without SLS integration, logstores with TTL below 180 days, missing alert rules, and single-account trail configurations for multi-account environments.</li>\n<li>Keep answers scoped, traceable, and explicit about compliance gaps and open questions.</li>\n<li>Load references only when needed; do not pull all deep guidance into short answers.</li>\n</ul>\n<h2>References</h2>\n<p>Load these only when needed:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"references/workflow-and-output.md\">Workflow and output contract</a> — use when executing the full audit review, compliance report generation, or formatting the final answer.</li>\n<li><a href=\"references/official-sources.md\">Official sources</a> — use when grounding Alibaba Cloud ActionTrail or SLS service behavior or checking the detailed source list.</li>\n</ul>\n<h2>Response minimum</h2>\n<p>Return, at minimum:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>the scoped target and evidence level,</li>\n<li>the trail coverage and SLS integration status,</li>\n<li>the retention policy vs. compliance requirement assessment,</li>\n<li>the anomaly detection and alerting gaps,</li>\n<li>the safest next actions with validation steps,</li>\n<li>the assumptions or blockers that prevent stronger conclusions.</li>\n</ul>\n","files":[{"path":"metadata.json","sizeBytes":972,"isText":true},{"path":"references/official-sources.md","sizeBytes":586,"isText":true},{"path":"references/workflow-and-output.md","sizeBytes":1533,"isText":true},{"path":"SKILL.md","sizeBytes":3663,"isText":true}],"reviewScore":null,"reviewSummary":null,"trust":{"provenance":"trusted-source-unreviewed","notice":"Community-authored content, reproduced verbatim and not vetted as instructions.
