SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you quickly diagnose AWS resource issues, inspect Lambda logs, and monitor deployed services to reduce mean time to resolution.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • SST Console & CloudWatch: Access real-time logs, metrics, and function status.
  • CLI-based log queries: Tail, filter, and time-bound queries for focused investigation.
  • Deployment diagnostics: Check deployment health and identify misconfigurations during updates.

Quick Start

Inspect logs for the sgcarstrends-api production function and verify that a recent deployment succeeded.

FAQPage Schema
How do I debug Lambda function errors using CloudWatch logs?

CloudWatch logs capture Lambda execution details and errors in real time. This Skill lets you tail, filter, and query logs by time range to isolate failure patterns, reduce mean time to resolution, and verify deployment success without manual AWS console navigation.

Can I monitor API Gateway performance and Lambda metrics from the CLI?

Yes. This Skill integrates AWS CLI with CloudWatch to retrieve API Gateway and Lambda metrics, check function status, and monitor alarms. CLI-based queries let you automate log inspection and performance checks without leaving your terminal.

What's the fastest way to diagnose a failed AWS deployment?

Deployment diagnostics inspect resource health and identify misconfigurations immediately after updates. This Skill checks Lambda and API Gateway state, reviews CloudWatch logs for errors, and surfaces configuration issues to confirm deployment success or pinpoint failures.

Does this work with SST Console for local and production debugging?

Yes. This Skill integrates with SST Console and CloudWatch to access real-time logs and metrics for both local development and production Lambda functions, enabling unified debugging across environments.

How do I filter AWS logs by time range to focus on specific incidents?

Time-bound log queries let you restrict results to a specific window, reducing noise and focusing investigation on the exact moment an error occurred. This Skill supports filtered, time-scoped searches via CLI for rapid incident analysis.

Why would I use CLI-based log queries instead of the AWS console?

CLI queries are faster for automation, scripting, and integration into workflows. This Skill lets you tail and filter logs programmatically, combine queries, and reduce manual navigation time during debugging.
