deploy-on-aws

deploy-on-aws is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from seandkendall/kiro-config. It costs 65 tokens per session (1,529 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A workflow for deploying an application to Amazon Web Services (AWS), a cloud platform for running software and storing data. It covers examining the code, choosing services, generating infrastructure code, checking the application, and running the deployment script.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare and deploy applications to AWS, generate deployment infrastructure, or estimate the AWS setup and cost.
Why use it?
It organizes the steps needed to move an application from a codebase to AWS and includes checks before deployment. It also accounts for estimated cost and basic security checks.

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

deploy-on-aws 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 today.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 114 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Deploy on AWS

Take any application and deploy it to AWS with minimal user decisions.

Philosophy

Minimize cognitive burden. User has code, wants it on AWS. Pick the most straightforward services. Don't ask questions with obvious answers.

Workflow

  1. Analyze - Scan codebase for framework, database, dependencies
  2. Recommend - Select AWS services, concisely explain rationale
  3. Estimate - Show monthly cost before proceeding
  4. Generate - Write IaC code with security defaults applied
  5. Quality Gate - Run the Pre-Deployment Quality Gate from development-workflow.md: lint (zero warnings), build (zero warnings), unit tests (≥90% coverage), Playwright E2E (target 100%), no deprecation notices, no critical/high vulnerabilities
  6. Deploy - Run security checks (cdk-nag), then execute via deploy.sh

Defaults

Default to dev-sized (cost-conscious: small instance sizes, minimal redundancy, single-AZ) unless user says "production-ready".

MCP Server Usage (AWS Agent Toolkit)

Use the unified AWS MCP Server (aws-mcp-server, via mcp-proxy-for-aws) for all AWS interactions. Resolve the actual callable tool name via tool_search before invoking any of these — see steering/aws-agent-toolkit.md → "Resolving the correct tool name" if a call fails with "Tool is not available":

  • Architecture decisions: the AWS docs-search tool (search_documentation, filter by agent_skills) and the skill-retrieval tool (retrieve_skill) to load curated guidance before designing
  • API knowledge: the AWS docs-search tool (topic current_awareness or reference_documentation) to verify the exact API/CLI syntax — never guess. There is no dedicated "suggest commands" tool; docs search is the current path for this.
  • Cost estimates: the sandboxed-Python tool (run_script) to invoke the Pricing API or Cost Explorer directly — this is the only AWS-API-call tool now (call_aws was removed Aug 31, 2026). Always present costs before generating IaC so the user can adjust before committing
  • IaC validation: the sandboxed-Python tool (run_script) for sandboxed Python checks (e.g., synth a CDK stack and inspect the template)

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.

deploy-on-aws is a skill published in the GitHub repository seandkendall/kiro-config (8 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 65 tokens to every session and 1,529 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-10-27.
