setup-devops-agent
An agent skill by aws, from aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws. Tags: devops, local-workflow, mcp, setup, troubleshooting.
What it does
Setup and diagnostics for the AWS DevOps Agent MCP connection. Triggers when aws-devops-agent is missing from .mcp.json, when the connection is broken, or when the user says "set up devops agent" / "configure agent". Does NOT trigger if the MCP is already connected and working.
Install
