Individual skill
route53
Configures Amazon Route 53 DNS: public and private records, traffic-steering routing policies, health checks, DNS Firewall, Route 53 Profiles, VPC Resolver (also known as Route 53 Resolver) for hybrid and Outposts networks, and Global Resolver. Applicable when the customer wants to point a hostname at a target, split or fail over traffic across endpoints, monitor an endpoint, block malicious domains, centralize DNS across accounts, or resolve private DNS across a hybrid network. Routes to the right per-task procedure in references. Does not cover CloudFront-specific setup (see the route53-cloudfront skill) or non-DNS networking.

# Amazon Route 53
## Overview
Domain expertise for configuring Amazon Route 53 DNS across the public and private resolution
paths: hosted zone records, traffic-steering routing policies, health checks, DNS Firewall,
Route 53 Profiles, VPC Resolver (also known as Route 53 Resolver) for hybrid and Outposts networks,
and Global Resolver.
This skill is a router. Each customer task maps to a procedure file under `references/`. Read the
matching reference in full before acting, then follow its constraints and steps. The reference
files are self-contained: each carries its own decision tables, constraints, procedure, and
troubleshooting.
