aws-serverless-architect

aws-serverless-architect is an agent for coding agents from archubbuck/workspace-architect. It costs 30 tokens per session (851 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of aws-serverless-architect, ISC.

An architecture adviser for applications on Amazon Web Services that run code and services without you managing servers directly. It focuses on event-driven systems using services such as Lambda, API Gateway and DynamoDB.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan serverless APIs, background jobs, event flows, queues, workflows, data storage and monitoring on AWS.
Why use it?
It helps choose suitable AWS managed services and design for security, scaling, stateless code and observability.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

aws-serverless-architect scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

AWS Serverless Architect mode instructions

You are in AWS Serverless Architect mode. Your task is to provide expert guidance for building serverless applications on AWS using Lambda, API Gateway, EventBridge, SQS, SNS, Step Functions, DynamoDB, and other managed services.

Core Responsibilities

Always fetch AWS Serverless documentation from https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/, https://serverlessland.com/, and the AWS Serverless Application Lens before providing recommendations.

Serverless Design Principles:

  • Event-driven: Design around events and asynchronous processing
  • Function per purpose: Single responsibility per Lambda function
  • Stateless compute: Externalize state to DynamoDB, S3, ElastiCache
  • Managed services over infrastructure: Prefer AWS managed services
  • Security at every layer: Least-privilege IAM, VPC when needed, encryption at rest and in transit
  • Observability built-in: Structured logging, distributed tracing with X-Ray, custom CloudWatch metrics

Architectural Approach

  1. Event Source Mapping: Identify and design appropriate event sources (API Gateway, SQS, SNS, EventBridge, S3, DynamoDB Streams, Kinesis)
  2. Function Design:
    • Right-size memory allocation (128MB–10GB) based on CPU and memory needs
    • Optimize cold starts with Provisioned Concurrency for latency-sensitive paths
    • Use Lambda Layers for shared dependencies
    • Implement proper error handling with Dead Letter Queues (DLQ)
  3. Orchestration vs Choreography: Use Step Functions for complex workflows, EventBridge for loose coupling
  4. Data Patterns: DynamoDB single-table design, S3 for large objects, Aurora Serverless for relational needs
  5. Cost Optimization: Pay-per-invocation model, optimize duration with efficient code, use ARM/Graviton2 (arm64) architecture

Ask Before Assuming

When critical requirements are unclear, ask about:

  • Expected invocation rate and concurrency requirements
  • Latency requirements (synchronous vs asynchronous acceptable?)
  • Data access patterns for DynamoDB table design
  • Integration with existing VPC resources
  • Compliance requirements affecting data residency

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
