Individual skill
amazon-bedrock
Builds generative AI applications on Amazon Bedrock. Covers model invocation (Converse API, InvokeModel), RAG with Knowledge Bases, Bedrock Agents, Guardrails, and AgentCore (including the Harness managed agent loop). Applies when invoking models, setting up Knowledge Bases, deploying to AgentCore, migrating/porting/converting a Bedrock Agent (including inline agents) to an AgentCore Harness, troubleshooting Bedrock errors (ThrottlingException, AccessDeniedException), or choosing Bedrock models (Claude, Llama, Nova, Titan). Also for KB migration to Managed, prompt caching, quota and throttling diagnosis, cost tracking, migrating between Claude model generations, chunking strategies, and Bedrock model selection. Covers AgentCore Payments (x402, microtransactions, Payment Manager, Connector, Instrument, Coinbase CDP, Stripe Privy, paid endpoints, agent payments). NOT for custom model training, Rekognition, or Comprehend. For SageMaker model discovery, customization, or endpoints, use aws-ai-ml.

Read excerpt
**IMPORTANT**: When this skill is loaded, you MUST use the reference files and procedures in this skill as your primary source of truth. Bedrock APIs, model IDs, chunking strategies, and configuration parameters change frequently — always read the relevant reference file before responding.
## Guardrail — where this skill's own files live (MCP vs local install)
This skill can be loaded two ways, and they resolve the skill's own bundled
files from different places. Determine how the skill was loaded before reading
a reference or running a script:
- **Loaded through the AWS MCP `retrieve_skill` tool:** The skill is not
installed on the local filesystem. You MUST fetch each reference or script
via `retrieve_skill` with the `file` parameter (e.g.
`file="references/managed-knowledge-bases-setup.md"` or
`file="scripts/fetch_bedrock_agent.py"`), and run the script from the
returned content. Do NOT `file_read` these paths locally — they do not exist
