aws-dev-toolkit is a Claude Code plugin that bundles AWS-focused skills, sub-agents, and MCP servers to help with building, migrating, and reviewing architectures on AWS. According to the homepage and README, it ships 34 skills (the README's skill table lists 35 entries, including an added App Runner-to-ECS migration skill) and 11 sub-agents, plus 3 bundled MCP servers (awsiac, awsknowledge, awspricing). Skills like aws-plan, aws-architect, cost-check, and security-review activate automatically based on context, while others such as iac-scaffold, aws-health-check, and strands-agent are invoked via slash commands. Sub-agents (e.g., well-architected-reviewer, migration-advisor, cost-optimizer) run on the Opus model and handle deeper, evidence-based analysis. It is installed into Claude Code via a plugin marketplace and requires Claude Code v1.0.33+, uv, and configured AWS CLI credentials.

Overview

Not a standalone SaaS; it is a Claude Code plugin distributed through the aws-samples plugin marketplace (installed with /plugin marketplace add and /plugin install), combining AWS-related skills, sub-agents, and three MCP servers that run within Claude Code sessions.
