Claude Code plugins for AWS development with specialized knowledge and MCP server integrations, including CDK, serverless architecture, cost optimization, and Bedrock AgentCore for AI agent deployment.
Shared AWS agent skills including AWS Documentation MCP configuration for querying up-to-date AWS knowledge.
Features:
Note: This plugin is automatically loaded as a dependency by other plugins. Install it first if installing plugins individually.
AWS CDK development skill with integrated MCP server for infrastructure as code.
Features:
Integrated MCP Server:
Cost optimization, monitoring, and operational excellence with 3 integrated MCP servers.
Features:
Integrated MCP Servers:
Serverless and event-driven architecture patterns based on Well-Architected Framework.
Features:
AWS Bedrock AgentCore comprehensive expert for deploying and managing AI agents.
Features:
Add the marketplace to Claude Code:
/plugin marketplace add zxkane/aws-skills
Install plugins individually:
# Install the common dependency first
/plugin install aws-common@aws-skills
# Then install the plugins you need
/plugin install aws-cdk@aws-skills
/plugin install aws-cost-ops@aws-skills
/plugin install serverless-eda@aws-skills
/plugin install aws-agentic-ai@aws-skills
Do NOT explicitly specify resource names when they are optional in CDK constructs.
// ✅ GOOD - Let CDK generate unique names
new lambda.Function(this, 'MyFunction', {
// No functionName specified
});
// ❌ BAD - Prevents multiple deployments
new lambda.Function(this, 'MyFunction', {
functionName: 'my-lambda',
});
Use appropriate constructs for automatic bundling:
NodejsFunction from aws-cdk-lib/aws-lambda-nodejsPythonFunction from @aws-cdk/aws-lambda-python-alphaBefore committing CDK code:
npm run build
npm test
npm run lint
cdk synth
./scripts/validate-stack.sh
Ask Claude to help with CDK:
Create a CDK stack with a Lambda function that processes S3 events
Claude will:
Estimate costs before deployment:
Estimate the monthly cost of running 10 Lambda functions with 1M invocations each
Analyze current spending:
Show me my AWS costs for the last 30 days broken down by service
Set up monitoring:
Create CloudWatch alarms for my Lambda functions to alert on errors and high duration
Investigate issues:
Show me CloudWatch logs for my API Gateway errors in the last hour
Audit activity:
Show me all IAM changes made in the last 7 days
Assess security:
Run a Well-Architected security assessment on my infrastructure
Build serverless applications:
Create a serverless API with Lambda and API Gateway for user management
Implement event-driven workflow:
Create an event-driven order processing system with EventBridge and Step Functions
Orchestrate complex workflows:
Implement a saga pattern for booking flights, hotels, and car rentals with compensation logic
Deploy AI agents with Bedrock AgentCore:
Deploy a REST API as an MCP tool using AgentCore Gateway
Manage agent memory:
Set up conversation memory for my AI agent with DynamoDB backend
Monitor agent performance:
Configure observability for my AgentCore runtime with CloudWatch dashboards

MCP server names use short identifiers to comply with Bedrock's 64-character tool name limit. The naming pattern is: mcp__plugin_{plugin}_{server}__{tool}
Examples: awsdocs (AWS docs), cdk (CDK), cw (CloudWatch), sfn (Step Functions), sam (Serverless), etc.
