An agent skill by aws, from aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws. Tags: ai, api, cloud, generative, ml.

What it does

Builds generative AI applications on Amazon Bedrock. Covers model invocation (Converse API, InvokeModel), RAG with Knowledge Bases, Bedrock Agents, Guardrails, and AgentCore (including the Harness managed agent loop). Use when invoking models, setting up Knowledge Bases, creating agents, applying guardrails, deploying to AgentCore, migrating/porting/converting a Bedrock Agent (including inline agents) to an AgentCore Harness, troubleshooting Bedrock errors (ThrottlingException, AccessDeniedException), or choosing models (Claude, Llama, Nova, Titan). ALSO USE for prompt caching, quota health checks and throttling diagnosis, cost attribution, migrating between Claude model generations, chunking strategies, API selection (Converse vs InvokeModel), and model selection. Also covers AgentCore Payments setup (x402, microtransactions, Payment Manager, Coinbase CDP, Stripe Privy, 402 Payment Required, paid endpoint). NOT for custom model training, Rekognition, or Comprehend.
