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

rds-oracle 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 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 4 executable files (scripts/check_rds_status.sh, scripts/check_security_groups.sh, scripts/test_connectivity.sh, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Amazon RDS for Oracle — Connectivity

Safety guidance

This skill covers creating and modifying RDS for Oracle resources when the user requests it. The agent MUST confirm the action with the user before executing. Do NOT execute any create or modify operation without explicit user confirmation (e.g., "yes", "proceed", "confirmed", "go ahead"). If the user has not confirmed, present the planned action and ask for approval.

Execute these operations (after user confirmation)

  • Create an instance: create-db-instance (requires a DB subnet group; RDS Oracle is VPC-only and not publicly accessible by default)
  • Create a custom parameter group: create-db-parameter-group (family oracle-se2-19, oracle-ee-19, etc.)
  • Create an option group: create-option-group (for Oracle Native Network Encryption, TLS/TCPS, S3 integration, APEX, Spatial)
  • Change backup retention: modify-db-instance --backup-retention-period
  • Enable/disable deletion protection: modify-db-instance --deletion-protection
  • Change CloudWatch log exports: modify-db-instance --cloudwatch-logs-export-configuration
  • Attach/detach parameter group or option group: modify-db-instance --db-parameter-group-name / --option-group-name
  • Tag resources: add-tags-to-resource, remove-tags-from-resource

Resource tagging (always apply on resource creation)

When creating any RDS for Oracle resource (create-db-instance, create-db-parameter-group, create-option-group, create-db-instance-read-replica), ALWAYS include these tags using the RDS list-of-records --tags syntax:

--tags Key=created_by,Value=rds-oracle-skill Key=generation_model,Value={your-model-id}

Example: --tags Key=created_by,Value=rds-oracle-skill Key=generation_model,Value=claude-sonnet-4-20250514

Include these tags even if the user does not mention tagging, so that they can identify the resources created via this skill. If the user provides additional tags, append these to their tags rather than replacing them. The same applies when tagging via add-tags-to-resource on existing resources.

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.
