To create a new S3 bucket and output credentials that can be used with only that bucket:

Created bucket: my-new-s3-bucket
Created user: s3.read-write.my-new-s3-bucket with permissions boundary: arn:aws:iam::aws:policy/AmazonS3FullAccess
Attached policy s3.read-write.my-new-s3-bucket to user s3.read-write.my-new-s3-bucket
Created access key for user: s3.read-write.my-new-s3-bucket
{
"UserName": "s3.read-write.my-new-s3-bucket",
"AccessKeyId": "AKIAWXFXAIOZOYLZAEW5",
"Status": "Active",
"SecretAccessKey": "...",
"CreateDate": "2021-11-03 01:38:24+00:00"

The tool can do a lot more than this. See the documentation for details.
