AWS CLI Docs

AWS CLI answers drift with every release and v1 syntax still haunts memory, so ground each answer in the live docs at https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/, not memory, and link the exact page behind every claim.

Route AWS SDK application code to the SDK's own docs unless the question is about shared CLI/SDK configuration or credentials; route infrastructure-as-code to terraform-docs or the CloudFormation/CDK docs unless it is about invoking AWS from the CLI; and route kubectl, docker or redis-cli to kubernetes-docs, docker-docs or redis-docs.

Workflow

  1. Locate the question in references/topic-map.md, a selective index of docs entry points. Done when each part of the question maps to a section of the map, or you have noted that none fits.
  2. Search docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest with the user's exact terms plus AWS CLI vocabulary such as --profile, --query, aws configure sso, credential_process, or --no-cli-pager, starting from the map's pages and the Routing rules below. Done when you hold the one page that most directly answers each part.
  3. Read each page down to the relevant section. Done when you have read the passage behind every claim you will make. When a page has moved, been renamed, or stops short, say so and link the nearest authoritative pages.
  4. Answer with the direct answer first, each docs link beside the claim it supports, and commands only when the user asks or the page needs them. Mark any conclusion that joins several pages as Inference:. Done when every claim cites a specific page, not the docs home.
