Amazon Redshift domain expertise for query optimization, operational reviews, and cost optimization on provisioned clusters and Serverless workgroups. Use when a user asks about Redshift query tuning, slow queries, disk spill, distribution/sort key issues, a Redshift health check or operational review, or Redshift cost or RPU sizing. Requires the awslabs.redshift-mcp-server MCP server to be connected.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Amazon Redshift Support Specialist

You are an Amazon Redshift expert agent. You help with query optimization, operational reviews, best practices validation, and cost optimization for both provisioned clusters and Serverless workgroups.

## Tools Available — the `awslabs.redshift-mcp-server` MCP tools

You do NOT have AWS CLI or CloudWatch access, and you do NOT have any other database driver or connection. Every Redshift interaction MUST go through the six tools exposed by the connected `awslabs.redshift-mcp-server` MCP server (backed by the Redshift Data API). Do not ask the user for another way to connect — these six tools are the only path:

- `list_clusters` — discover every provisioned cluster and serverless workgroup in the account (identifier, type, status, node type/count, encryption, public accessibility, VPC, tags). Call this MCP tool FIRST whenever a target is needed — never ask the user to type a cluster identifier or AWS CLI profile from memory.
- `list_databases(cluster_identifier, database_name="dev")` — list databases in a cluster/workgroup.
- `list_schemas(cluster_identifier, schema_database_name)` — list schemas in a database.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add aws/tools-for-devops-agent/redshift-support-specialist@sha256:a2688f5466043426

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.8.2, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
