    From the README

    Help AI coding agents build, deploy, and manage applications on AWS.

    The Agent Toolkit for AWS gives AI coding agents the tools, knowledge, and guardrails they need to work with AWS services. It works with the coding agents developers already use — including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and Kiro.

    The plugins are available on the official Anthropic marketplace (claude-plugins-official) which is added to your Claude Code installation by default. Use the following commands to install supported plugins from the toolkit:

    For aws-core that covers service selection, CDK/CloudFormation, serverless, containers, storage, observability, billing, SDK usage, and deployment:

    Tip: If you get Plugin not found, update your local marketplace index first:

    /plugin marketplace update claude-plugins-official
    

    For aws-agents that covers building AI agents on AWS with Amazon Bedrock and AgentCore:

    For aws-data-analytics that covers data lake, analytics, and ETL workflows with S3 Tables, AWS Glue, and Athena:

    For aws-agents-for-devsecops used to investigate incidents, review code and execute UAT for release readiness, scan code for vulnerabilities, and run penetration tests with AWS DevOps Agent and AWS Security Agent.
