Claude skills for AWS: what people ask

Which Claude skill should I use for AWS?

Yes: 248 public skills from 77 GitHub repositories mention AWS. The best-known ones named for it are aws cdk python setup (github/awesome-copilot, ★ 41k), aws cloudwatch investigation (github/awesome-copilot, ★ 41k) and aws resource health diagnose (github/awesome-copilot, ★ 41k). Stars belong to the whole repository, not to one skill.

How do I add aws cdk python setup to Claude?

For AWS, copy the aws-cdk-python-setup folder from github/awesome-copilot (the folder that holds SKILL.md) into ~/.claude/skills/ to use it in every Claude Code project, or into .claude/skills/ for one project. For the Claude apps, upload the zipped folder as a custom skill instead.

How recently were AWS skills updated?

146 of the 248 AWS skills sit in repositories that changed in the 30 days before 31 Oct 2026.

Are AWS skills safe to install?

Installing a AWS skill means Claude will follow its instructions and may run its scripts, so read SKILL.md and every script first: for aws cdk python setup, that is everything in the aws-cdk-python-setup folder. 2 of the 50 here, aws cost estimate and hf cloud aws context discovery, come from repositories with under 10 stars, so few people have looked at them. Watch for downloads, commands that send data out, invisible characters, and text telling Claude to keep something from you.

What licences do these AWS skills use?

Of the 50 AWS skills listed here, 41 sit in repositories under an open licence such as MIT or Apache 2.0, and 4, such as testdriver:aws setup and dotnet email service aws ses, state no licence at all, which legally means you may not reuse them. The licence badge on each card tells you which is which.
