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
