Amazon Web Services resilient cloud architecture, serverless Lambda execution, S3 bucket security, DynamoDB single-table design, and IAM least privilege.
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 Web Services Resilient Architecture (`/aws`)
> **Philosophy**: *Zero static access keys. Role-based execution via IAM Task Roles / IRSA. S3 private-by-default with KMS encryption. Bounded Lambda timeouts. Event-driven idempotency.*
This skill establishes defensive engineering standards for designing, deploying, and maintaining cloud infrastructure on **Amazon Web Services (AWS)**.

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261029.1aa6bef, 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.
