Can I use this to manage and reduce AWS costs?

Yes, it includes specialized commands for AWS Cost Explorer, setting up budget alerts, and providing architectural tips for cost optimization like using ARM64 Lambda functions.

Can it help debug failed Lambda executions?

Yes, it provides specific troubleshooting workflows for tailing CloudWatch logs, checking function configurations, and simulating IAM permissions.

How does it handle AWS security?

The skill enforces security-first workflows, including the principle of least privilege for IAM, mandatory encryption for data stores, and secrets management via AWS Secrets Manager or SSM.

Does this skill support AWS CDK or CloudFormation?

This skill specifically prioritizes Terraform for Infrastructure as Code (IaC) to ensure consistent, reliable, and industry-standard management patterns.

What AWS services are supported?

It provides deep support for core services including Lambda, S3, EC2, DynamoDB, API Gateway, CloudFront, IAM, CloudWatch, and more.
