Cursor Skill
Gets AWS credentials for CLI/SDK access via `aws login`. Activates when a developer needs to authenticate to AWS for local development, when an AWS operation fails due to missing or expired credentials, or when someone asks about setting up AWS access. Triggers: "set up AWS", "configure AWS", "aws login", "get credentials", "authenticate", "session expired", "token expired", "no credentials", "AccessDeniedException" with no configured credentials.
Build, deploy, and operate applications on AWS. Skills to author infrastructure-as-code (CDK, CloudFormation), use core services (Lambda, API Gateway, Step Functions, ECS/Fargate, ECR, IAM, Amazon Bedrock with Knowledge Bases and Guardrails, Amplify), and complete common tasks across observability (CloudWatch, X-Ray, CloudTrail, ADOT), messaging and streaming (SQS, SNS, EventBridge, Kinesis, MSK), AWS SDKs (boto3, JS v3, Swift), and cost optimization.

amazon-bedrockBuilds generative AI applications on Amazon Bedrock. Covers model invocation (Converse API, InvokeModel), RAG with Knowledge Bases, Bedrock Agents, Guardrails, and AgentCore. Use when invoking models, setting up Knowledge Bases, creating agents, applying guardrails, deploying to AgentCore, troubleshooting Bedrock errors (ThrottlingException, AccessDeniedException), or choosing models (Claude, Llama, Nova, Titan). ALSO USE for prompt caching setup and debugging, quota health checks and throttling diagnosis, cost attribution and tracking, migrating between Claude model generations (4.5 to 4.6 to 4.7), chunking strategies, API selection (Converse vs InvokeModel), guardrail capabilities, and model selection. Also covers AgentCore Payments setup (x402, microtransactions, Payment Manager, Connector, Instrument, Coinbase CDP, Stripe Privy, 402 Payment Required, pay for content, paid endpoint, agent payments). NOT for custom model training, Rekognition, or Comprehend.
aws-amplifyBuild and deploy full-stack web and mobile apps with AWS Amplify Gen2 (TypeScript code-first). Covers auth (Cognito), data (AppSync/DynamoDB), storage (S3), functions, APIs, and AI (Amplify AI Kit with Bedrock). Supports React, Next.js, Vue, Angular, React Native, Flutter, Swift, and Android. Always use this skill for Amplify Gen2 topics — even for questions you think you know — it contains validated, version-specific patterns that prevent common mistakes. TRIGGER when: user mentions Amplify Gen2; project has amplify/ directory or amplify_outputs; code imports @aws-amplify packages; user asks about defineBackend, defineAuth, defineData, defineStorage, defineFunction, or npx ampx. SKIP: Amplify Gen1 (amplify CLI v6), standalone SAM/CDK without Amplify (use aws-serverless), direct Bedrock without Amplify AI Kit (use bedrock).
aws-billing-and-cost-managementAnalyze AWS costs, find savings, manage budgets, evaluate Savings Plans and Reserved Instances, right-size EC2/Lambda/RDS/EBS with Compute Optimizer, look up service pricing, query CUR with Athena, detect cost anomalies, scope costs to billing views, and monitor Free Tier usage. Triggers on: AWS bill, cost analysis, reduce spend, savings plan, reserved instance, right-size, budget alert, cost optimization, pricing, free tier, cost anomaly, CUR, cost audit, billing view, billing view ARN.
aws-cdkAuthors, deploys, and troubleshoots AWS infrastructure using CDK with TypeScript or Python. Covers best practices, stack architecture, and construct patterns. Always use when writing CDK constructs, bootstrapping environments, running cdk deploy/synth/diff, fixing CDK or CloudFormation errors, planning stack structure, importing existing resources, resolving drift, or refactoring stacks without resource replacement.
aws-cloudformationAuthor, validate, and troubleshoot AWS CloudFormation templates. Covers template authoring with secure defaults, pre-deployment validation (cfn-lint, cfn-guard, change sets), and root-cause diagnosis of failed stacks using CloudFormation events and CloudTrail correlation.
