Does it support infrastructure as code best practices?

While focused on CLI and implementation patterns, it emphasizes security and reliability practices like using IAM task roles instead of access keys and implementing deployment circuit breakers.

How does this skill help with Fargate deployments?

It provides standardized templates and CLI commands for creating Fargate clusters, defining networking for VPCs, and registering task definitions optimized for serverless execution.

What is the AWS ECS skill for Claude Code?

It is a specialized plugin that provides Claude with the documentation, CLI patterns, and best practices needed to manage AWS Elastic Container Service environments directly through the terminal.

Can I use this skill to troubleshoot ECS task failures?

Yes, it includes specific troubleshooting workflows for identifying common issues such as ECR permission errors, memory limits, and failing health checks.
