debugging-mwaa-workflow

debugging-mwaa-workflow is a skill for Claude Code from aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws. It costs 194 tokens per session (2,204 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A diagnostic guide for Amazon MWAA workflow failures. Amazon MWAA is AWS's managed service for running Apache Airflow and Serverless workflows; the guide examines their run state and service logs to identify a root cause.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to investigate failed Python Airflow DAGs and YAML workflow runs in MWAA Provisioned or Serverless environments.
Why use it?
It removes the need to search several MWAA APIs and CloudWatch log groups by hand. It reports the likely cause, impact, and suggested remedy.

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

debugging-mwaa-workflow 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 22d 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 — 184 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Debugging MWAA Workflows

AWS MCP server (optional but recommended): running the AWS CLI commands in this skill through the AWS MCP server gives sandboxed execution and audit logging. Every command here also works with the plain AWS CLI, so the skill does not require the MCP server or any MCP-only tools.

Diagnose and root-cause Amazon MWAA workflow failures, then report root cause, impact, and recommended remediation. Routes by flavor, then runs a shared 4-step diagnostic spine.

Guardrail — where this skill's own files live (MCP vs local install)

This skill can be loaded two ways, and they resolve the skill's own bundled files from different places. Determine how the skill was loaded before reading a reference:

  • Loaded through the AWS MCP retrieve_skill tool: The skill is not installed on the local filesystem. You MUST fetch each reference via retrieve_skill with the file parameter (e.g. file="references/failure-catalog.md") and read the returned content. Do NOT file_read these paths locally — they do not exist on disk.
  • Installed locally (e.g. .kiro/skills/debugging-mwaa-workflow/ or ~/.claude/skills/debugging-mwaa-workflow/): Read the files from the local skill directory using relative paths.

This distinction applies only to the skill's own packaged files. User data and session artifacts are always read from and written to the user's working directory. Never fetch or write customer data through retrieve_skill.

Step 0: Detect Flavor and Scope the Failure

Detect flavor

  1. An environment name resolvable via aws mwaa get-environment means the environment is Provisioned.
  2. A workflow/... ARN or any aws mwaa-serverless context means the environment is Serverless. A bare run identifier does NOT indicate flavor — Provisioned DAG runs also have run ids.
  3. If neither signal is present, ask: is the target MWAA Provisioned (Python DAG) or MWAA Serverless (YAML workflow)?

Changes

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.
