Audit a single AWS SQS queue's configuration for the misconfigurations that silently drop or re-deliver messages while every attribute reads as fine. Parses the GetQueueAttributes output (and the referenced dead-letter queue), checks the redrive path (DLQ present, maxReceiveCount band, DLQ-vs-source retention ordering), the message lifecycle (poison messages aging out before they reach the DLQ, default visibility timeout, short retention), and exposure (open resource policy, encryption at rest, FIFO dedup contract). Reports findings with severity and a recommendation, then names the boundary: the questions a single queue's config cannot answer (consumer processing time, live behaviour, the IAM union, the producers and consumers on either side). Use when asked to review, harden, or sanity-check an SQS queue, or to explain why messages are going missing. Vendor-neutral; runs offline against the queue attributes with no Anyshift account.
