What it does
- Provides step-by-step CloudFormation YAML patterns for Amazon Bedrock resources: agents, action groups, knowledge bases, data sources, guardrails, prompts, flows, and inference profiles.
- Ships working template examples that cover the error-prone bits — IAM roles, S3 data sources, embedding model ARNs, agent AutoPrepare.
- Walks through pre-deploy validation with
aws cloudformation validate-templateand post-deploy verification of agent and knowledge base status via the AWS CLI. - Summarizes security (least privilege, restricted web-crawl domains), cost, performance, and data-management best practices plus regional/quota constraints.
Who it's for
- Cloud/backend engineers managing Bedrock RAG and AI agents as infrastructure as code
- DevOps and platform teams standardizing reviewable CloudFormation stacks
- Developers who need content moderation guardrails on an internal document chatbot
Example uses
- "Build a minimal RAG stack: S3 document bucket, knowledge base, and agent" → parameterized YAML with model choices and Outputs
- "Add a Lambda-backed action group with a function schema to my existing agent" → AgentActionGroup resource plus a Lambda skeleton
- "Add a guardrail with profanity filters and PII anonymization, and show me the validation command before deploying"

Install in Claude Code
Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code
Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart. Copy the plugins/developer-kit-aws/skills/aws-cloudformation/aws-cloudformation-bedrock folder from the GitHub repo giuseppe-trisciuoglio/developer-kit into my ~/.claude/skills/aws-cloudformation-bedrock/. When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.
Install with a command instead
git clone https://github.com/giuseppe-trisciuoglio/developer-kit.git && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r developer-kit/plugins/developer-kit-aws/skills/aws-cloudformation/aws-cloudformation-bedrock ~/.claude/skills/⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.
- Open a terminal and make sure the skills folder exists:
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills - Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/giuseppe-trisciuoglio/developer-kit.git - Copy the skill folder:
cp -r developer-kit/plugins/developer-kit-aws/skills/aws-cloudformation/aws-cloudformation-bedrock ~/.claude/skills/ - Confirm the
references/docs (constraints.md, reference.md, examples.md) came along with it. - Install the AWS CLI and configure credentials:
aws configure(pick a region where Bedrock is available). - Restart Claude Code and try a prompt like "create a CloudFormation template for a Bedrock knowledge base" to confirm the skill triggers.
