Recommendation: Use S3 with Object Lock for compliance data. Key Service: AWS Lambda with SQS DLQ for decoupling. Security: Implement Permission Boundaries for the 'Dev' role to prevent privilege escalation. Risk: Blast radius is high on the shared NAT Gateway; recommend VPC Endpoints.

About This Skill
What it does
This skill transforms your AI agent into a production-grade AWS Cloud Architect. It provides deep technical guidance across the entire AWS ecosystem, focusing on multi-account strategy, IAM least-privilege design, serverless patterns, and high-availability networking. Unlike generic AI prompts, this skill enforces strict operational gatekeeping, ensuring designs prioritize security boundaries, disaster recovery, and cost-efficiency before implementation begins.
Why use this skill
Designing for the cloud is easy; designing for production is hard. This skill saves senior engineers hours of manual review by automatically identifying architectural "red flags" such as broad administrative access, destructive lifecycle defaults, and lack of idempotency in distributed systems. It acts as a specialized consultant that understands how different AWS services interact under load and provides actionable remediation steps rather than vague suggestions.
Value Add
- Risk Mitigation: Identifies blast radius concerns and failure modes in complex VPC or event-driven setups.
- Cost Control: Recommends workload sizing and storage lifecycle policies to prevent budget overruns.
- Compliance Ready: Aligns infrastructure with best practices for audit logging, data classification, and environment isolation.
- Framework Agnostic: Provides architectural blueprints compatible with any IaC tool like Terraform, Pulumi, or CDK.
