amazon-keyspaces
Provides authoritative compatibility checks, pricing estimates, connection troubleshooting, pre-warming guidance, and infrastructure mutations for Amazon Keyspaces (for Apache Cassandra). Covers LWT/batch operations, secondary indexes, materialized views, capacity modes, TTL, PITR, CDC, auto-scaling, multi-region keyspaces, UDTs, nodetool diagnostics parsing, SQL-to-Cassandra migration, and Cassandra-to-Keyspaces migration scenarios. Agents frequently produce incomplete or incorrect answers about Keyspaces feature support without this skill loaded.

# Amazon Keyspaces
## Safety guidance
This skill covers creating keyspaces and tables and modifying table-level settings (TTL, PITR, capacity mode) when the user requests it. The agent MUST confirm the action with the user before executing. Do NOT execute any create or modify operation without explicit user confirmation (e.g., "yes", "proceed", "confirmed", "go ahead"). If the user has not confirmed, present the planned action and ask for approval.
### Execute these operations (after user confirmation)
- Create a keyspace: `aws keyspaces create-keyspace`
- Create a multi-region keyspace: `aws keyspaces create-keyspace --replication-specification replicationStrategy=MULTI_REGION,regionList=[{region=us-east-1},{region=eu-west-1}]`
- Create a table: `aws keyspaces create-table` (include partition-key and clustering-key design derived from the user's access patterns)
- Add column(s) to a table: `aws keyspaces update-table --add-columns '[{"name":"col_name","type":"text"}]'` — non-destructive, no downtime, no data loss. Existing rows get null for the new column.
- Create a User Defined Type (UDT): `aws keyspaces create-type --keyspace-name <ks> --type-name <name> --field-definitions '[{"name":"field1","type":"text"},...]'`
- Modify table TTL: `aws keyspaces update-table --default-time-to-live`
- Enable/disable PITR: `aws keyspaces update-table --point-in-time-recovery-specification`
