AWS Advisor workflow skill. Use this skill when the user needs Expert AWS Cloud Advisor for architecture design, security review, and implementation guidance. Leverages AWS MCP tools for accurate, documentation-backed answers. Use when user asks about AWS architecture, security, service selection, migrations, troubleshooting, or learning AWS. Triggers on AWS, Lambda, S3, EC2, ECS, EKS, DynamoDB, RDS, CloudFormation, CDK, Terraform, Serverless, SAM, IAM, VPC, API Gateway, or any AWS service. Do NOT use for non-AWS cloud providers or general infrastructure without AWS context and the operator should preserve the upstream workflow, copied support files, and provenance before merging or handing off.

This public intake copy packages packages/skills-catalog/skills/(cloud)/aws-advisor from https://github.com/tech-leads-club/agent-skills into the native Omni Skills editorial shape without hiding its origin.
Use it when the operator needs the upstream workflow, support files, and repository context to stay intact while the public validator and private enhancer continue their normal downstream flow.
This intake keeps the copied upstream files intact and uses the external_source block in metadata.json plus ORIGIN.md as the provenance anchor for review.
AWS Advisor Expert AWS consulting with accuracy-first approach using MCP tools.
Imported source sections that did not map cleanly to the public headings are still preserved below or in the support files. Notable imported sections: Adaptive Behavior, MCP Tools Available, Search Topic Selection, Scripts, Response Style.
When to Use This Skill
Use this section as the trigger filter. It should make the activation boundary explicit before the operator loads files, runs commands, or opens a pull request.
Use when the request clearly matches the imported source intent: Expert AWS Cloud Advisor for architecture design, security review, and implementation guidance. Leverages AWS MCP tools for accurate, documentation-backed answers. Use when user asks about AWS architecture, security,....
Use when the operator should preserve upstream workflow detail instead of rewriting the process from scratch.
Use when provenance needs to stay visible in the answer, PR, or review packet.
Use when copied upstream references, examples, or scripts materially improve the answer.
Use when the workflow should remain reviewable in the public intake repo before the private enhancer takes over.
Operating Table
Situation
Start here
Why it matters
First-time use
metadata.json
Confirms repository, branch, commit, and imported path through the external_source block before touching the copied workflow
Provenance review
ORIGIN.md
Gives reviewers a plain-language audit trail for the imported source
Workflow execution
references/checklists.md
Starts with the smallest copied file that materially changes execution
Supporting context
references/decision-trees.md
Adds the next most relevant copied source file without loading the entire package
Handoff decision

Workflow
This workflow is intentionally editorial and operational at the same time. It keeps the imported source useful to the operator while still satisfying the public intake standards that feed the downstream enhancer flow.
Parse question → Identify AWS services involved
Search documentation → aws__searchdocumentation with right topic
Read if needed → aws__readdocumentation for details
Verify regional → aws_getregionalavailability if relevant
1. Understand architecture scope
2. Run: scripts/security_review.py → generates checklist
3. Search security docs → topic: general, query: "[service] security"
4. Provide specific recommendations with IAM policies, SG rules
Imported: Adaptive Behavior
Before recommending tools/frameworks, understand the context:
What's the user's current stack? (ask if unclear)
What's the team's expertise?
Is there an existing IaC in the project?
Speed vs control trade-off preference?
IaC Selection - Don't default to one, guide by context:
Context
Recommended
Why
Quick MVP, serverless-heavy
Serverless Framework, SST, SAM
Fast iteration, conventions
Multi-cloud or existing Terraform
Terraform
Portability, team familiarity
Complex AWS, TypeScript team
CDK
Type safety, constructs
Simple Lambda + API
SAM
AWS-native, minimal config
Full control, learning
CloudFormation
Foundational understanding
Language/Runtime - Match user's preference:
Ask or detect from conversation context
Don't assume TypeScript/JavaScript
Provide examples in user's preferred language
Examples
Example 1: Ask for the upstream workflow directly
Use @aws-advisor to handle <task>. Start from the copied upstream workflow, load only the files that change the outcome, and keep provenance visible in the answer.
Explanation: This is the safest starting point when the operator needs the imported workflow, but not the entire repository.
Example 2: Ask for a provenance-grounded review
Review @aws-advisor against metadata.json and ORIGIN.md, then explain which copied upstream files you would load first and why.
Explanation: Use this before review or troubleshooting when you need a precise, auditable explanation of origin and file selection.
Example 3: Narrow the copied support files before execution
Use @aws-advisor for <task>. Load only the copied references, examples, or scripts that change the outcome, and name the files explicitly before proceeding.
Explanation: This keeps the skill aligned with progressive disclosure instead of loading the whole copied package by default.
Example 4: Build a reviewer packet
Review @aws-advisor using the copied upstream files plus provenance, then summarize any gaps before merge.
Explanation: This is useful when the PR is waiting for human review and you want a repeatable audit packet.
Imported Usage Notes
Imported: Code Examples
Always ask or detect user's preference before providing code:
Language: Python, TypeScript, JavaScript, Go, Java, etc.
Treat the generated public skill as a reviewable packaging layer around the upstream repository. The goal is to keep provenance explicit and load only the copied source material that materially improves execution.
Search Before Answer: Always use MCP tools to verify information
No Guessing: Uncertain? Search documentation first
Context-Aware: Adapt recommendations to user's stack, preferences, and constraints
Security by Default: Every recommendation considers security
No Lock-in: Present multiple options with trade-offs, let user decide
Keep the imported skill grounded in the upstream repository; do not invent steps that the source material cannot support.
Prefer the smallest useful set of support files so the workflow stays auditable and fast to review.

Troubleshooting
Problem: The operator skipped the imported context and answered too generically
Symptoms: The result ignores the upstream workflow in packages/skills-catalog/skills/(cloud)/aws-advisor, fails to mention provenance, or does not use any copied source files at all.
Solution: Re-open metadata.json, ORIGIN.md, and the most relevant copied upstream files. Check the external_source block first, then restate the provenance before continuing.
Problem: The imported workflow feels incomplete during review
Symptoms: Reviewers can see the generated SKILL.md, but they cannot quickly tell which references, examples, or scripts matter for the current task.
Solution: Point at the exact copied references, examples, scripts, or assets that justify the path you took. If the gap is still real, record it in the PR instead of hiding it.
Problem: The task drifted into a different specialization
Symptoms: The imported skill starts in the right place, but the work turns into debugging, architecture, design, security, or release orchestration that a native skill handles better.
Solution: Use the related skills section to hand off deliberately. Keep the imported provenance visible so the next skill inherits the right context instead of starting blind.
