What problem does it solve?
This Skill helps authors, deployers, and troubleshooters manage AWS infrastructure using the AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) with TypeScript or Python. It provides domain expertise for CDK construct authoring, deployment workflows, compliance, drift, importing resources, safe refactoring, and troubleshooting CDK CLI / CloudFormation errors.
Core Features & Use Cases
- CDK Construct Authoring: Covers best practices, stack architecture, and construct patterns for writing CDK constructs.
- Deployment Workflows: Offers guidance on bootstrapping environments, running
cdk deploy/synth/diff, and fixing CDK or CloudFormation errors.
- Compliance and Drift: Assists with policy enforcement, drift detection, and resolution strategies.
- Resource Import and Migrate: Provides tools for importing existing resources and converting CloudFormation stacks to CDK code.
- Refactoring and Prevention of Replacement: Offers techniques to refactor safely and prevent resource replacement.
