AWS IAM Docs

IAM answers drift with every release and drift toward broad * permissions, so ground each answer in the live docs at https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/, not memory, and link the exact page behind every claim.

Route AWS CLI install, profiles and aws configure sso syntax to aws-cli-docs, service configuration that is not about permissions to that service's skill (for example aws-s3-docs), and Kubernetes RBAC on EKS to aws-eks-docs or kubernetes-docs; the AWS IAM side stays here. SDK credential provider code belongs to the SDK's docs unless the question turns on IAM roles or policies.

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/IAM/latest with the user's exact terms plus IAM vocabulary such as trust policy, permission boundary, condition key, AssumeRole, Identity Center, or Access Analyzer, 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 policy JSON or 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.
