Introducing Agent Toolkit for AWS

Agent Toolkit for AWS gives AI coding agents the tools, knowledge, and guardrails they need to work effectively with AWS services. Instead of relying on agents' general knowledge of AWS -- which can be outdated or incomplete -- it provides access to up-to-date documentation, best practices, and tested procedures that improve success rates and reduce wasted effort. In this video, we'll show you exactly how it works: we deploy a Python Lambda behind API Gateway (HTTP API) and the whole thing takes less than 3 minutes from prompt to working endpoint.
