SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It helps you answer questions about an AWS account’s read-only inventory—such as what Lambda functions exist, which RDS instances are running, what S3 buckets are available, and what CloudWatch metrics show—without manually digging through multiple AWS consoles.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Read-only AWS inventory queries: Lists Lambda functions and S3 buckets, and describes RDS instances to quickly understand what’s deployed.
  • CloudWatch metric retrieval: Fetches CloudWatch datapoints for a given namespace, metric, and dimensions to support operational investigations.
  • Example Use Case: Ask what functions exist in us-east-1 with a specific naming prefix, then retrieve CloudWatch metrics for a related namespace to validate system behavior.

Quick Start

Run the aws-connector CLI with the list_functions action and your region and optional prefix to get a JSON inventory of Lambda functions.

Frequently Asked Questions about aws-connector

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I list AWS Lambda functions in a specific region?▼

You can list AWS Lambda functions by executing a read-only list action scoped to a specific AWS region, optionally filtering by a naming prefix. The query returns a JSON inventory of functions without requiring direct AWS console access.

Can I retrieve CloudWatch metrics for troubleshooting without write access?▼

Yes, you can retrieve CloudWatch metrics by fetching datapoints for a specified namespace, metric, and dimensions. This read-only operation uses whitelisted Get* SDK operations to safely support operational investigations without write access.

What is the safest way to check RDS instances and S3 buckets across an AWS account?▼

The safest way to check RDS instances and S3 buckets is using a read-only connector restricted to whitelisted Describe* and List* SDK operations. S3 bucket listing runs account-wide, while RDS queries scope to a single AWS region.

Does this approach support AWS inventory queries for multiple services?▼

Yes, this approach supports AWS inventory queries across Lambda, RDS, S3, and CloudWatch. It parameterizes read-only actions to list, describe, or fetch datapoints, returning a single JSON envelope on stdout for easy parsing and troubleshooting.

What are the limitations of using read-only AWS inventory queries?▼

Limitations include being restricted to whitelisted Describe*, List*, and Get* SDK operations only, preventing any resource modifications. Additionally, queries must be scoped to a single AWS region, except for account-wide S3 bucket listing.
