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.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

SkillSpector: 2 findings, up to medium
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00069 | $0.01767 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00034 | $0.00883 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00014 | $0.00353 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00177 |
Grade B, and why
troubleshooting-s3-files scanned grade B 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 6d 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.
Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation
A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

Troubleshooting S3 Files
Overview
Diagnoses and resolves Amazon S3 Files issues: mount failures, IAM permissions, synchronization, conflict resolution, and performance.
For authoritative guidance, see S3 Files Troubleshooting.
Common Tasks
0. Verify Dependencies
- You MUST verify
awsCLI is available withs3filessubcommand support - You MUST confirm valid AWS credentials
- You MUST ONLY check for tool existence and version — MUST NOT execute destructive or mutating commands during verification
- You MUST inform the user if any required tools are missing
- You MUST respect the user's decision to abort if tools are unavailable
- You SHOULD explain steps before executing and wait for user confirmation on write commands
1. Classify the Issue
| Symptom | Category |
|---|---|
| mount.s3files: command not found | A: Client Installation |
| Connection timed out during mount | B: Network/Security Group |
| Mount hangs indefinitely (no timeout) | B: Network/Security Group |
| Access denied during mount | C: IAM Permissions |
| File system stuck in "creating" | C: IAM Permissions |
| Permission denied on file operations | C: IAM Permissions |
| Files not appearing in S3 after write | D: Synchronization |
| Files in .s3files-lost+found directory | E: Conflict Resolution |
| Slow reads or high latency | F: Performance |
| NFS server error | G: Encryption/KMS |
| DNS name resolution fails | H: VPC DNS |
2. Category A — Client Installation
mount.s3files: command not found means amazon-efs-utils is missing or < v3.0.0.
sudo yum -y install amazon-efs-utils # Amazon Linux
3. Category B — Network/Security Group
Connection timeout is the #1 mount failure — almost always security groups.
Verify mount target exists in the instance's AZ:
aws s3files list-mount-targets --file-system-id fs-ID --region REGION
Cross-AZ mounting works but adds latency.
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.

troubleshooting-s3-files is a skill published in the GitHub repository aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws (2,569 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 69 tokens to every session and 1,767 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (asks for root). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
