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

With the skills CLI, which installs into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other agents:

npx skills add aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws --skill setup-devops-agent

Or copy the skill folder into Claude Code's skills directory by hand (~/.claude/skills for every project, or .claude/skills inside one):

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws
cp -r agent-toolkit-for-aws/plugins/aws-agents-for-devsecops/skills/setup-devops-agent ~/.claude/skills/setup-devops-agent
