release-readiness

release-readiness is a command for coding agents from aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws. It costs 21 tokens per session (1,930 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A pre-merge review command for a change waiting to be added to a code project. It can review a GitHub pull request, GitLab merge request, or local branch for release readiness.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps assess whether a pull request, merge request, or branch is ready to merge and release, using the supplied repository and change details.
Why use it?
It gives teams a structured check before merging code, helping identify issues that could delay or complicate a release.

About the project

Agent Toolkit for AWS is a collection of AWS-supported MCP servers, skills, plugins, commands, and hooks that help AI coding agents build, deploy, and manage applications on AWS. It is used by developers working with AWS services through agents such as Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and Kiro. The catalogue entries are the toolkit's own agent extensions for AWS development and operations.

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

release-readiness scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 5d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 173 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Read and follow the analyzing-release-readiness skill for full execution details.

IMPORTANT: NEVER use gh CLI, glab CLI, curl, or any external tool to fetch PR/MR details. All required fields (repository, prNumber/mergeRequestIid, hostname) MUST be parsed directly from the URL string. The DevOps Agent fetches the content itself.

Step 0 — Choose your execution path (DO THIS FIRST)

Check your available tools. Do you have ALL of these tools?

  • aws_devops_agent__create_release_readiness_review
  • aws_devops_agent__get_task
  • aws_devops_agent__list_journal_records
  • aws_devops_agent__get_release_readiness_report

These tools are NOT deferred/lazy-loaded — if they do not appear in your tool list, they are unavailable. Do NOT search for them via ToolSearch.

  • YES (all present) → Use the "Remote Server" path below
  • NO → Tell the user: "Remote server not configured." Then prompt the user with instructions from the setup-devops-agent skill if they intend to set up the connection. If not, mention that you are "proceeding with the AWS CLI fallback." Then use the Fallback (CLI) path below.

Common to both paths (see skill: "Gathering execution parameters")

  1. If $ARGUMENTS contains a URL (github.com or gitlab.com), parse the PR/MR details directly from the URL string — do NOT fetch or inspect the PR via any tool.
  2. If $ARGUMENTS is a repo name or path, use the "Local GitHub/GitLab repo" flow below.
  3. If $ARGUMENTS is empty, check the current git repository and use the local flow.
  4. Build the content object following the skill's "Gathering execution parameters" section.
  5. Ask the user about automated testing (static-only vs full analysis). Do NOT proceed until the user answers.

Remote Server path (see skill: "Core workflow")

  1. Call aws_devops_agent__create_release_readiness_review(content={...}, skip_automated_testing=...).
  2. Poll aws_devops_agent__get_task(task_id=TASK_ID) every 30s.
  3. Stream progress via aws_devops_agent__list_journal_records(execution_id=EXEC_ID, order="ASC").
  4. On COMPLETED: call aws_devops_agent__get_release_readiness_report(execution_id=EXEC_ID), save to file, and run the auto-fix flow from the skill.

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.
