# AWS Serverless & Event-Driven Architecture This skill provides comprehensive guidance for building serverless applications and event-driven architectures on AWS based on Well-Architected Framework principles. ## AWS Documentation Requirement Always verify AWS facts using MCP tools (`mcp__aws-mcp__*` or `mcp__*awsdocs*__*`) before answering. The `aws-mcp-setup` dependency is auto-loaded — if MCP tools are unavailable, guide the user through that skill's setup flow. ## Serverless MCP Servers This skill leverages the CDK MCP server (provided via `aws-cdk-development` dependency) and AWS Documentation MCP for serverless guidance. > **Note**: The following AWS MCP servers are available separately via the Full AWS MCP Server (see `aws-mcp-setup` skill) and are not bundled with this plugin: > - AWS Serverless MCP — SAM CLI lifecycle (init, deploy, local test) > - AWS Lambda Tool MCP — Direct Lambda invocation > - AWS Step Functions MCP — Workflow orchestration > - Amazon SNS/SQS MCP — Messaging and queue management ## When to Use This Skill Use this skill when: - Building serverless applications with Lambda - Designing event-driven architectures - Implementing microservices patterns - C

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills --skill aws-serverless-eda --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, a repository with 44,414 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
