Currently, this tool is only available for creating checks for the AWS provider.
If you are looking for a way to create new checks for all the supported providers, you can use Prowler Studio, it is an AI-powered toolkit for generating and managing security checks for Prowler (better version of the Check Kreator).

​
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: 
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 to produce preliminary code and metadata.
For this feature to work, you must have the library google-generativeai installed in your Python environment.
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.
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.
