skyhook github setup

Set up GitHub Actions authentication with your cloud provider

Synopsis

Configure OIDC trust between GitHub Actions and your cloud provider. This enables GitHub Actions workflows to securely authenticate with AWS/GCP without storing long-lived credentials. The setup creates: AWS: OIDC Identity Provider + IAM Role GCP: Workload Identity Federation + Service Account The CLI can either:
  1. Run cloud CLI commands directly (requires gcloud/aws CLI)
  2. Generate a CloudFormation/Terraform template for manual deployment
