SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Keeps API Gateway experts from juggling the AWS console by delivering direct access to REST APIs, resources, stages, authorizers, usage plans, and domains inside the AWS Claw VS Code experience so they can inspect and modify APIs with natural language.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Comprehensive inspection: List REST APIs, view resource trees, examine methods, integrations, stages, stage variables, and documentation without leaving VS Code.
  • Lifecycle operations: Create, update, and delete REST APIs, resources, methods, deployments, stages, authorizers, usage plans, API keys, and custom domains through APIGatewayTool commands.
  • Testing and auditing: Invoke TestInvokeMethod and TestInvokeAuthorizer, export APIs, analyze usage plans and API keys, and correlate with CloudWatch logs to validate behavior.

Quick Start

Ask the assistant to list REST APIs, inspect resources and stages, and test a method using APIGatewayTool.
