deploying-containers-to-amazon-lightsail
aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws

Deploys, hosts, or runs a container or Docker app on Amazon Lightsail Container Service and returns a live, managed HTTPS URL at a flat monthly price — no cluster, VPC, load balancer, or registry to set up. Used when deploying a container image to Lightsail from a local Docker build, a public registry image, or a GitHub repo, or when a Lightsail container deployment fails or won't serve — including when the request doesn't name Lightsail but asks to run one always-on container behind a public URL at a flat, predictable monthly price. Not for running an app on a Lightsail instance (VM) or Amazon EC2 instead of the container service, and not for workloads needing Kubernetes, autoscaling, scale-to-zero, or per-request pricing (use Amazon ECS/EKS or ECS Express Mode).

aws-amplify
aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws

Build 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).

querying-aws-sagemaker-catalog
aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws

Runs SQL analytics on SageMaker Catalog asset metadata tables exported as Apache Iceberg in S3 Tables. Covers governance queries, asset growth tracking, ownership audits, time-travel over catalog state, and metadata quality analysis. Applies when querying catalog inventory, finding assets without descriptions, comparing catalog snapshots, or auditing data ownership.

querying-aws-s3
aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws

Queries S3 object metadata, tracks bucket activity, audits object changes, searches annotations, and analyzes storage metrics using S3 Metadata system tables (journal, inventory, annotation) and S3 Storage Lens tables via Athena SQL. Applies when counting objects, finding recent uploads or deletions, identifying who wrote to a prefix, breaking down storage classes, finding objects by tag, searching annotation content, analyzing storage lens metrics, or enabling S3 Metadata tracking. Prefers system tables over raw S3 APIs (list-objects-v2, head-object) at scale. Trigger phrases: bucket activity, object count, who uploaded, track deletions, storage class breakdown, find by tag, search annotations, storage lens metrics, audit bucket changes.

querying-aws-redshift
aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws

Enables Redshift system-table (SYS_*) log publishing to S3 Tables in Apache Iceberg format for both Provisioned clusters and Serverless namespaces, verifies publishing status, and queries the published logs via any Iceberg-compatible engine including Redshift and Athena. Covers system tables such as sys_query_history, sys_query_text, sys_connection_log, sys_query_detail, and sys_session_history. Applies when turning on S3 Tables log publishing for a cluster or namespace, confirming publishing status and locating the S3 Tables namespace, querying non-realtime data from Redshift system tables off-cluster at scale, or building dashboards for Redshift monitoring and auditing, especially for historical or high-volume system-table data beyond the in-cluster SYS_ view retention window. Trigger phrases: publish redshift system table log to s3 tables, enable-logging s3 tables, describe redshift logging status, query redshift system tables in athena or redshift, redshift log exports to iceberg.

querying-aws-athena
aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws

Runs SQL queries on Amazon Athena query history exported as an Apache Iceberg table in S3 Tables. The query_executions system table captures per-query metadata (query text, IAM principal, work group, statement type, data scanned, timing breakdown, error details, tables accessed, result reuse, engine version) for every completed query. Applies when analyzing Athena usage and cost, finding who ran a query, auditing table access, tracking data scanned by user or work group, investigating slow or failed queries, detecting performance regressions, reporting query history beyond the 45-day API window, or enabling Athena system tables. Prefers the system table over the ListQueryExecutions and GetQueryExecution APIs at scale. Trigger phrases: Athena query history, who ran this query, data scanned by user, most queried tables, slowest queries, failed query analysis, Athena cost by work group, query audit trail, enable Athena system tables.
