"github_readme_excerpt": "# AWS SPIFFE Workload Helper\n\n[](https://opensource.org/licenses/Apache-2.0)\n[](https://github.com/spiffe/spiffe/blob/main/MATURITY.md#development)\n\nAWS SPIFFE Workload Helper is a light-weight tool intended to assist in\nproviding a workload with credentials for AWS using its SPIFFE identity.\n\nIt provides a more native experience when using SPIFFE identities compared to\nthe [`rolesanywhere-credential-helper`](https://github.com/aws/rolesanywhere-credential-helper)\nreleased by AWS, and is intended to be used in place of\n`rolesanywhere-credential-helper`.\n\nThe helper supports authenticating to AWS using an X.509 SVID via\n[AWS Roles Anywhere](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/rolesanywhere/latest/userguide/introduction.html),\nor using a JWT SVID via\n[AWS AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/STS/latest/APIReference/API_AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity.html).\n\n## Usage\n\n### Getting Started\n\nFollow the guidance at\n\u003chttps://docs.aws.amazon.com/rolesanywhere/latest/userguide/getting-started.html\u003e\nand substitute the usage of `rolesanywhere-credential-helper` with this utility.\n\n### Installation\n\n#### Binary\n\nThe `aws-spiffe-workload-helper` binary is available for a range of\narchitectures within the\n[GitHub Releases](https://github.com/spiffe/aws-spiffe-workload-helper/releases)\nof this repository.\n\nDownload the appropriate artifact for your architecture, and extract the\n.tar.gz. The binary can then be placed somewhere on the system where it will be\naccessible to workloads that use the AWS SDKs or CLIs. It may be beneficial to\nensure it is in a location that is within your PATH.\n\n#### OCI Image\n\nThe `aws-spiffe-workload-helper` is also distributed within an OCI image. This\nmay be useful as a source of the binary if you are building your own image and\nrequire this binary within it.\n\nThese images are published",
