Guidance for Amazon Web Services (AWS), a cloud platform for running applications, storing data, and managing infrastructure.

Use it for AWS architecture, services such as EC2 and S3, infrastructure as code, security settings, cloud migration, monitoring, and cost optimisation.

It helps plan and configure AWS services without having to recall the details of compute, storage, databases, networking, security, migration, and costs.

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.

Any agent

npx skills add DauQuangThanh/hanoi-rainbow --skill aws-cloud

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00168	$0.02002
Opus 5	$0.00084	$0.01001
Sonnet 5	$0.00034	$0.00400
Haiku 4.5	$0.00017	$0.00200

Security

Grade A, and why

aws-cloud 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 10d 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 Cloud

Core Capabilities

Provides expert guidance for AWS infrastructure and services:

Compute Services - EC2, Lambda, ECS, EKS, Fargate, Batch, Elastic Beanstalk
Storage Services - S3, EBS, EFS, FSx, Glacier, Storage Gateway
Database Services - RDS (MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, SQL Server), Aurora, DynamoDB, ElastiCache, DocumentDB
Networking - VPC, ALB/NLB, Route 53, CloudFront, Direct Connect, VPN, Transit Gateway
Container Services - ECS (Elastic Container Service), EKS (Elastic Kubernetes Service), ECR (Elastic Container Registry)
Serverless - Lambda, API Gateway, Step Functions, EventBridge, SQS, SNS
Infrastructure as Code - CloudFormation, Terraform, CDK (Cloud Development Kit), SAM
Security - IAM, KMS, Secrets Manager, Security Hub, GuardDuty, WAF, Shield
Migration - Cloud migration strategies from on-premise, GCP, Azure to AWS

Key Principles

General Best Practices

Follow least privilege - Use IAM roles with minimal required permissions
Enable monitoring - Configure CloudWatch for all services with appropriate alarms
Use managed services - Prefer RDS over self-managed databases, ECS Fargate over EC2
Implement IaC - Use CloudFormation, Terraform, or CDK for reproducible infrastructure
Tag resources - Apply tags for cost allocation, automation, and compliance
Design for HA - Use Multi-AZ deployments and Auto Scaling Groups
Secure by default - Enable encryption, use private subnets, configure security groups properly
Optimize costs - Use Reserved Instances, Savings Plans, Spot Instances, and right-sizing

Architecture Patterns

Multi-tier web apps: VPC + ALB + EC2/ECS + RDS Multi-AZ
Serverless APIs: API Gateway + Lambda + DynamoDB with CloudFront caching
Container workloads: ECS/EKS with Fargate + RDS + ElastiCache
Data processing: S3 + Lambda/Glue + Athena/EMR + QuickSight
Microservices: EKS + Service Mesh + RDS Aurora + ElastiCache

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.

aws-cloud is a skill published in the GitHub repository DauQuangThanh/hanoi-rainbow (16 stars, last pushed 7mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 168 tokens to every session and 2,002 once invoked, about $0.0008 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
