Comprehensive AWS development capabilities for Claude Code, including CDK infrastructure as code, cost optimization, and serverless architecture patterns.
Included Skills
This collection contains specialized skills for different AWS domains:
- aws-cdk-development - Infrastructure as code with AWS CDK
- aws-cost-operations - Cost optimization and monitoring
- aws-serverless-eda - Serverless and event-driven architecture patterns
Each skill includes integrated MCP servers for accessing the latest AWS documentation and tools.
Use Cases
Infrastructure Development
- Designing and implementing CDK stacks
- Following AWS best practices patterns
- Infrastructure validation and deployment
Cost Management
- Estimating AWS service costs
- Analyzing spending patterns
- Optimizing resource allocation
Serverless Architecture
- Building event-driven applications
- Designing well-architected serverless systems
- Implementing distributed patterns (saga, event sourcing)
Key Features
- CDK Best Practices: Proper construct patterns and resource naming
- MCP Integration: Live AWS documentation and pricing lookups
- Well-Architected: Follows AWS Well-Architected Framework
- Comprehensive: Covers infrastructure, costs, and operations
Getting Started
Each skill within this collection is self-contained and can be used independently. Refer to the specific SKILL.md files in each subdirectory for detailed documentation.

This collection bundles specialized AWS development skills for CDK infrastructure as code, cost optimization, and serverless/EDA patterns. It emphasizes MCP integration for live docs and pricing and follows AWS Well-Architected patterns to ensure robust deployments.
How This Skill Works
Each sub-skill is self-contained and can be used independently. It utilizes integrated MCP servers to fetch the latest AWS documentation and pricing, guiding you through infrastructure, cost management, and serverless event-driven patterns.
When to Use It
- When designing infrastructure with CDK stacks and following best practices
- When estimating and optimizing AWS spend across services
- When building serverless, event-driven applications
- When validating architectures against the AWS Well-Architected Framework
- When you need up-to-date AWS docs and pricing via MCP integration during development
Quick Start
- Step 1: Pick a skill (aws-cdk-development, aws-cost-operations, or aws-serverless-eda) and review MCP docs
- Step 2: Follow the starter guidance in the chosen skill to scaffold your project
- Step 3: Run a sandbox deployment or validation to verify your setup
Best Practices
- Follow CDK best practices for constructs, patterns, and resource naming
- Align designs with the AWS Well-Architected Framework
- Leverage MCP integration for live AWS documentation and pricing during development
- Validate infrastructure with tests and dry-runs before deployment
- Use the modular, self-contained skill approach to reduce coupling and improve reuse
Example Use Cases
- Design a CDK stack for VPC, IAM roles, and ECS/Fargate with well-structured constructs
- Estimate monthly costs and optimize resources using the cost-operations skill
- Build a serverless workflow using Lambda, EventBridge, and SQS for an event-driven app
- Implement saga or event-sourcing patterns in a serverless architecture
- Consult live AWS docs and pricing via MCP during development to stay current
