Getting Started with AWS Resilience Hub v2

Overview

Domain expertise for first-time Resilience Hub v2 setup: policies, systems, user journeys, services, input sources, and failure mode assessments.

The AWS MCP server is recommended for executing this skill's AWS API calls, but it is not required — all operations also work with the AWS CLI directly.

Guardrail — where this skill's own files live (MCP vs local install)

Before reading a reference file, determine how this skill was loaded:

• Loaded via the AWS MCP retrieve_skill tool: the skill's reference files are not on the local filesystem. Fetch each one through retrieve_skill with the file parameter (e.g. file="references/setup-procedure.md") — do NOT file_read these paths locally or search the filesystem for them.
• Installed locally (e.g. .kiro/skills/resilience-hub-getting-started/ or ~/.claude/skills/resilience-hub-getting-started/): read reference files from the local skill directory using the relative paths shown here.

This applies only to the skill's own reference files; always read and write user or session data in the working directory, never through retrieve_skill.
