aws-cdk-python-setup
Setup and initialization guide for developing AWS CDK (Cloud Development Kit) applications in Python. This skill enables users to configure environment prerequisites, create new CDK projects, manage dependencies, and deploy to AWS.
What this skill does
# AWS CDK Python Setup Instructions This skill provides setup guidance for working with **AWS CDK (Cloud Development Kit)** projects using **Python**. --- ## Prerequisites Before starting, ensure the following tools are installed: - **Node.js** ≥ 14.15.0 — Required for the AWS CDK CLI - **Python** ≥ 3.7 — Used for writing CDK code - **AWS CLI** — Manages credentials and resources - **Git** — Version control and project management --- ## Installation Steps ### 1. Install AWS CDK CLI ```bash npm install -g aws-cdk cdk --version ``` ### 2. Configure AWS Credentials ```bash # Install AWS CLI (if not installed) brew install awscli # Configure credentials aws configure ``` Enter your AWS Access Key, Secret Access Key, default region, and output format when prompted. ### 3. Create a New CDK Project ```bash mkdir my-cdk-project cd my-cdk-project cdk init app --language python ``` Your project will include: - `app.py` — Main application entry point - `my_cdk_project/` — CDK stack definitions - `requirements.txt` — Python dependencies - `cdk.json` — Configuration file ### 4. Set Up Python Virtual Environment ```bash # macOS/Linux source .venv/bin/activate # Windows .venv\Scripts\activate ``` ### 5. Install Python Dependencies ```bash pip install -r requirements.txt ``` Primary dependencies: - `aws-cdk-lib` — Core CDK constructs - `constructs` — Base construct library --- ## Development Workflow ### Synthesize CloudFormation Templates ```bash cdk synth ``` Generates `cdk.out/` containing CloudFormation templates. ### Deploy Stacks to AWS ```bash cdk deploy ``` Reviews and confirms deployment to the configured AWS account. ### Bootstrap (First Deployment Only) ```bash cdk bootstrap ``` Prepares environment resources like S3 buckets for asset storage. --- ## Best Practices - Always activate the virtual environment before working. - Run `cdk diff` before deployment to preview changes. - Use development accounts for testing. - Follow Pythonic naming and directory conventions. - Keep `requirements.txt` pinned for consistent builds. --- ## Troubleshooting Tips If issues occur, check: - AWS credentials are correctly configured. - Default region is set properly. - Node.js and Python versions meet minimum requirements. - Run `cdk doctor` to diagnose environment issues.

appbuilder-action-scaffolder
IncludedCreate, implement, deploy, and debug Adobe Runtime actions with consistent layout, validation, and error handling. Use this skill whenever the user needs to add actions to an App Builder project, understand action structure (params, response format, web/raw actions), configure actions in the manifest, use App Builder SDKs (State, Files, Events, database), deploy and invoke actions via CLI, debug action issues, or implement patterns such as webhook receivers, custom event providers, journaling consumers, large payload redirects, action sequence pipelines, and Asset Compute workers. Also trigger when users mention serverless functions in Adobe context, action logging, IMS authentication for actions, or cron-style scheduled actions.
orchestrating-datacloud
IncludedSalesforce Data Cloud product orchestrator for connect→prepare→harmonize→segment→act workflows. Use this skill when the user needs a multi-step Data Cloud pipeline, cross-phase troubleshooting, or data space and data kit management. TRIGGER when: user needs a multi-step Data Cloud pipeline, asks to set up or troubleshoot Data Cloud across phases, manages data spaces or data kits, or wants a cross-phase sf data360 workflow. DO NOT TRIGGER when: work is isolated to a single phase (use the matching phase-specific skill), the task is STDM/session tracing/parquet telemetry (use observing-agentforce), standard CRM SOQL (use querying-soql), or Apex implementation (use generating-apex).
github-project-automation
IncludedAutomate GitHub repository setup with CI/CD workflows, issue templates, Dependabot, and CodeQL security scanning. Includes 12 production-tested workflows and prevents 18 errors: YAML syntax, action pinning, and configuration. Use when: setting up GitHub Actions CI/CD, creating issue/PR templates, enabling Dependabot or CodeQL scanning, deploying to Cloudflare Workers, implementing matrix testing, or troubleshooting YAML indentation, action version pinning, secrets syntax, runner versions, or CodeQL configuration. Keywords: github actions, github workflow, ci/cd, issue templates, pull request templates, dependabot, codeql, security scanning, yaml syntax, github automation, repository setup, workflow templates, github actions matrix, secrets management, branch protection, codeowners, github projects, continuous integration, continuous deployment, workflow syntax error, action version pinning, runner version, github context, yaml indentation error
sf-datacloud
IncludedSalesforce Data Cloud product orchestrator for connect→prepare→harmonize→segment→act workflows. TRIGGER when: user needs a multi-step Data Cloud pipeline, asks to set up or troubleshoot Data Cloud across phases, manages data spaces or data kits, or wants a cross-phase `sf data360` workflow. DO NOT TRIGGER when: work is isolated to a single phase (use the matching sf-datacloud-* skill), the task is STDM/session tracing/parquet telemetry (use sf-ai-agentforce-observability), standard CRM SOQL (use sf-soql), or Apex implementation (use sf-apex).
fabric-cli
IncludedUse this skill for Fabric.so CLI workflows with the `fabric` terminal command: diagnose/install/login, search or browse a Fabric library, save notes/links/files, create folders, ask the Fabric AI assistant, manage tasks/workspaces, generate shell completion, check subscription usage, produce JSON output, and use Fabric as persistent agent memory. Do not use for Microsoft Fabric/Azure/Power BI `fab`, Daniel Miessler's Fabric framework, Python Fabric SSH, Fabric.js, or textile/fashion fabric.
lark
IncludedLark/Feishu CLI skills: lark-cli operations for docs, markdown, sheets, base, calendar, im, mail, task, okr, drive, wiki, slides, whiteboard, apps, approval, attendance, contact, vc, minutes, event. Use when the user needs to operate Lark/Feishu resources via lark-cli, send messages, manage documents, spreadsheets, calendars, tasks, OKRs, deploy web pages, or any Feishu/Lark workspace operations.
