# AWS API agent skills for Claude Code, Cursor and RevampKey

> Ready-made AWS API playbooks for AI agents. Free SKILL.md files for Claude Code, Cursor and Codex, or one click in RevampKey.

## Skills

- [Use the AWS API MCP Server safely](https://revampkey.com/marketplace/aws-api-mcp-server/skills/essentials.md): Runs AWS CLI commands through the AWS API MCP Server with the account, profile and region confirmed first. It drafts commands for review and asks before anything that changes your AWS resources.

## Install

- RevampKey: connect AWS API at https://revampkey.com/marketplace/aws-api-mcp-server; the skills come with it.
- Any Agent Skills tool, into the current project:

```bash
curl -fsSL --create-dirs -o .agents/skills/aws-api-mcp-server-essentials/SKILL.md https://revampkey.com/marketplace/aws-api-mcp-server/skills/essentials/SKILL.md
```

### What is a AWS API agent skill?

A SKILL.md file: a short playbook an AI agent loads when your request matches it. Each AWS API skill describes one job, which AWS API tools to use in which order, what to check first and when to stop and ask you.

### Do the AWS API skills change anything on their own?

1 of the 1 only read. The others tell the agent to show you the change and wait for a yes before it creates, edits or deletes anything in AWS API.

### Which tools can use these skills?

Any agent that reads the open Agent Skills format: Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, VS Code with Copilot and RevampKey. In RevampKey they are attached when you connect AWS API; elsewhere you copy the folders into your project or skills directory.

### Do I need the AWS API MCP server too?

Yes. The skills tell the agent how to do the work; the AWS API MCP server gives it the tools to do it. The AWS API MCP setup guide covers every client.
