Aws expert
Use when working with core AWS services outside the serverless and IaC specialist skills — EC2, S3, VPC/networking, IAM policies, RDS, ECS, CloudWatch, Secrets Manager — via the AWS CLI/console/boto3. Triggers - "launch an EC2 instance", "S3 bucket policy", "create a VPC", "IAM role/policy", "RDS setup", "ECS service", "CloudWatch alarm". For CloudFormation templates use aws-cloudformation; for Lambda/API-Gateway serverless code use aws-serverless; for architecture design + cost optimization use aws-solution-architect.From its SKILL.md

AWS Expert
Expert-level operation of core AWS services via the AWS CLI, console, and boto3: compute, storage, databases, networking, security/identity, and monitoring. Design and manage scalable, reliable, and cost-effective infrastructure following AWS Well-Architected Framework principles.
When to use / decision
Use this skill as the non-serverless, non-IaC fallback for hands-on work with core AWS services. Route elsewhere when a specialist fits better:
| If the task is about… | Use |
|---|---|
| CloudFormation templates / IaC | aws-cloudformation |
| Lambda / API Gateway serverless code | aws-serverless |
| Architecture design + cost optimization | aws-solution-architect |
| EC2, S3, VPC, IAM, RDS, ECS, CloudWatch, Secrets Manager (CLI/console/boto3) | this skill |
Reference index
Load the reference for the service you're working with:
| Reference | Covers |
|---|---|
| references/compute.md | EC2, Lambda, ECS |
| references/storage.md | S3, EBS |
| references/database.md | RDS, DynamoDB |
| references/networking.md | VPC, subnets, route tables, security groups, ELB |
| references/security.md | IAM users/roles/policies, Secrets Manager |
| references/monitoring.md | CloudWatch metrics, alarms, logs |
| references/best-practices.md | Best practices, Well-Architected Framework, general approach |
Always design AWS infrastructure that is secure, reliable, performant, and cost-effective.
