aws-serverless

aws-serverless is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from XyrusCode/ai-sync. It costs 168 tokens per session (1,152 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of instructions for building and operating serverless applications on Amazon Web Services, where code runs on demand without managing servers directly.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it with AWS Lambda, API Gateway, Step Functions, EventBridge, SAM or CDK, CloudWatch, scheduled tasks, concurrency settings, and specialized long-running or isolated workloads.
Why use it?
It helps handle deployment, configuration, debugging, scaling, and common problems such as slow starts, browser access errors, and event-trigger failures.

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

aws-serverless 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 1 executable file (assets/powertools-handler.py), 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.

AWS Serverless

Domain expertise for building serverless applications on AWS: Lambda, API Gateway, Step Functions, EventBridge, event source mappings, concurrency, cold starts, deployment, and troubleshooting.

Works best with the AWS MCP server — run CLI commands, query CloudWatch, validate configs directly. All guidance also works with standard AWS CLI access.

Specialized skills — check these first

These cover capabilities and procedures the general references below do not. Several are specialized features or step-by-step tested procedures you would otherwise miss. Route to the matching skill before falling back to the references.

Advanced Lambda compute (easy to overlook)

Use this skill When the workload involves
aws-lambda-microvms Strong tenant isolation, sandboxed/untrusted code execution (AI agent code sandboxes, REPLs, notebooks, CI runners), long-lived sessions, suspend/resume with preserved state, port-listening servers (gRPC, WebSocket, custom TCP), Firecracker microVMs, snapshot-resumable compute, up to 8-hour lifetimes
aws-lambda-durable-functions Durable execution, checkpoint-and-replay, long-running multi-step workflows written as plain code (TS/Python/Java), automatic state persistence, saga pattern in code, human-in-the-loop callbacks, executions up to 1 year, context.step/context.wait/context.invoke, withDurableExecution, durable-execution-sdk
aws-lambda-managed-instances Lambda Managed Instances (LMI), capacity providers, EC2-backed Lambda, steady high-volume traffic (50M+ req/mo) wanting Savings Plans / Reserved Instance pricing, PerExecutionEnvironmentMaxConcurrency, CapacityProviderConfig, multi-concurrent execution environments

Step-by-step task procedures (tested CLI SOPs)

Use this skill For the task
connecting-lambda-to-api-gateway Wire an existing Lambda to a new REST/HTTP API: proxy integration, permissions, CORS, throttling, access logging, deployment
connecting-lambda-to-dynamodb Connect Lambda to DynamoDB: IAM execution role, read/write permissions, stream event source mapping
creating-api-gateway-stage Create an API Gateway stage with CloudWatch logging, X-Ray tracing, throttling, WAF association, and authorization
deploying-custom-domain-rest-api Deploy a Regional REST API with custom domain: ACM cert, Lambda backend, request authorizer, base path mapping, Route 53 DNS
debugging-lambda-timeouts Systematically diagnose a timing-out Lambda: config, CloudWatch logs/metrics, VPC, cold starts, memory, downstream calls
processing-s3-uploads-with-step-functions Deploy an event-driven workflow: S3 upload → EventBridge → Step Functions → Lambda (small files) or Fargate (large files), with VPC/ECR/ECS/IAM

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.
