ECS Reconnaissance

Discover everything about an ECS environment. Run this skill to gather comprehensive context about clusters, services, and their tasks before making any decisions, changes, or recommendations. Standalone (run-task) and scheduled (EventBridge) tasks are not discovered — discovery enumerates workloads via list-services.

When to Use This Skill

Run this skill when the user:

  • Asks about their ECS environment ("what clusters do I have?", "describe my ECS setup")
  • Wants to understand their service configuration ("what launch type?", "how is it deployed?")
  • Plans to modify a service and needs current-state context first
  • Asks to document or review their ECS resources
  • Needs task definition details, scaling policies, or networking config
  • Mentions an ECS cluster or service and seems to need context

Also trigger this skill when:

  • Another workflow needs ECS environment information as input
  • User mentions ECS and needs discovery before recommendations
  • You need to understand the ECS setup before giving guidance
