aws-cli

Why This Skill Exists

Early proto helpers (b00t-aws-tools) duplicated SDK logic yet shipped no usable tools. This skill re-centers AWS work on the official aws CLI plus the canonical _b00t_/clouds.云☁️/aws.🦉.云☁️ sketches, ensuring every agent follows the same ceremony.

When To Load

• Deploy/invoke a Lambda (lambda.invoke.sketch.sh).
• Publish an image to ECR and run it on ECS/Fargate (ecs.fargate.sketch.sh).
• Inspect/download objects from S3 buckets (s3.bucket.sketch.sh).
• Bridge into AWS MCP servers after credentials are verified.

Operating Instructions

1. b00t learn aws → review the .☁️ README for prerequisites and environment variables.
2. Export account-specific env vars (bucket names, subnet IDs, function names). Never hardcode them.
3. Run the appropriate sketch script; capture JSON receipts/log output for the Operator and stash sensitive artifacts in the secure storage path, not git.
4. If an official AWS MCP server suffices, configure it per https://github.com/awslabs/mcp instead of writing new helpers.

Melvins (🤓)

• CLI SSOT: aws sts get-caller-identity is the authoritative source for Account/ARN context.
• .☁️ Canon: All cloud runbooks live under _b00t_/clouds.云☁️/…; keep additions there.
• No stray secrets: env vars or datums supply parameters; scripts stay generic.
• Verify outputs: Lambda/ECS scripts emit receipts—read them before declaring success.
