FAQPage SchemaHow to install Agent Toolkit for AWS?โผ
Run `npx skills add aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws --all -g -y` in your terminal to install all skills globally. You need an AWS account with local credentials configured for API calls.
What does Agent Toolkit for AWS do?โผ
It gives AI coding agents accurate, current instructions for building and operating on AWS, covering services like Lambda, EC2, S3, Redshift, Bedrock, and IAM. It prevents common agent mistakes such as wrong API parameters, deprecated commands, and insecure defaults.
Which AI agents work with this toolkit?โผ
It works with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and Kiro through ready-made plugins, plus any agent that supports the standard SKILL.md format. The bundled AWS MCP Server gives agents sandboxed, audit-logged access to over 300 AWS services.
Can it help with AWS security and cost reviews?โผ
Yes. Dedicated skills scan code for vulnerabilities, run penetration tests, review IAM policies, analyze your bill, and find savings through right-sizing and Savings Plans recommendations.
Do I need coding experience to use it?โผ
Basic familiarity with AWS and the command line helps, but the skills guide your agent step by step through tasks like signing in, deploying apps, and querying data lakes using plain-English requests.
