AWS Serverless Deployment
Deploy serverless applications to AWS using SAM or CDK. This skill covers project scaffolding, IaC templates, CDK constructs and patterns, deployment workflows, CI/CD pipelines, and SAM/CDK coexistence.
For Lambda runtime behavior, event sources, orchestration, observability, and optimization, see the aws-lambda skill.
When to Load Reference Files
Load the appropriate reference file based on what the user is working on:
- SAM project setup, templates, deployment workflow, local testing, or container images -> see references/sam-project-setup.md
- CDK project setup, constructs, CDK testing, or CDK pipelines -> see references/cdk-project-setup.md
- CDK Lambda constructs, NodejsFunction, PythonFunction, or CDK Function -> see references/cdk-lambda-constructs.md
- CDK serverless patterns, API Gateway CDK, Function URL CDK, EventBridge CDK, DynamoDB CDK, or SQS CDK -> see references/cdk-serverless-patterns.md
- SAM and CDK coexistence, migrating from SAM to CDK, or using sam build with CDK -> see references/sam-cdk-coexistence.md
Best Practices
SAM
More from awslabs/agent-plugins
deploy
Deploy applications to AWS. Triggers on phrases like: deploy to AWS, host on AWS, run this on AWS, AWS architecture, estimate AWS cost, generate infrastructure. Analyzes any codebase and deploys to optimal AWS services.
122aws-lambda
Design, build, deploy, test, and debug serverless applications with AWS Lambda. Triggers on phrases like: Lambda function, event source, serverless application, API Gateway, EventBridge, Step Functions, serverless API, event-driven architecture, Lambda trigger. For deploying non-serverless apps to AWS, use deploy-on-aws plugin instead.
115use-case-specification
Creates a reusable use case specification file that defines the business problem, stakeholders, and measurable success criteria for model customization, as recommended by the AWS Responsible AI Lens. Use as the default first step in any model customization plan. Skip only if the user explicitly declines or already has a use case specification to reuse. Captures problem statement, primary users, and LLM-as-a-Judge success tenets.
59amplify-workflow
Build and deploy full-stack web and mobile apps with AWS Amplify Gen2
58planning
Discovers user intent and generates a structured, step-by-step plan for SageMaker AI model customization workflows (fine-tuning, data preparation, evaluation, deployment). Activate when the user's request relates to these areas or when the user asks to modify the current plan. Handles intent discovery, plan generation, plan iteration, and mid-execution plan alterations.
57directory-management
Manages project directory setup and artifact organization. Use when starting a new project, resuming an existing one, or when a PLAN.md needs to be associated with a project directory. Creates the project folder structure (specs/, scripts/, notebooks/) and resolves project naming.
