setup-devops-agent

Setup and diagnostics for the AWS DevOps Agent MCP connection. Triggers when aws-devops-agent is missing from .mcp.json, when the connection is broken, or when the user says "set up devops agent" / "configure agent". Does NOT trigger if the MCP is already connected and working.

Content

85%

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

A highly actionable, well-sequenced setup workflow with strong validation feedback loops and a clean sectioned structure. The main weakness is mild redundancy in the auth-path decision prose and tables, which inflates tokens without adding clarity.

Suggestions

Consolidate the bearer-vs-SigV4 tradeoff rationale (single vs multiple agent spaces, admin tooling) into one place; the Step 0 bullet and all four Step 2 table cells repeat the same parentheticals.

The Step 2 table's action strings duplicate the surrounding prose ('The user may want to use bearer token if...'); collapse to a single decision prompt to save tokens.

Step 5's numbered list restarts at 1 after the fenced code block (the routing-guide table), which can confuse sequencing — renumber or use a sub-list so 'pass agent_space_id' is clearly the final step.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Largely lean and instructional with executable snippets, but Step 0 and Step 2 restate the bearer-vs-SigV4 tradeoffs in prose and tables (single/multiple agent spaces, admin tooling) several times, which could be tightened without losing meaning.

2 / 3

Actionability

Provides copy-paste-ready bash, JSON MCP configs, curl verification, and concrete decision tables mapping results to actions — fully executable guidance rather than abstraction.

3 / 3

Workflow Clarity

Steps 0–6 are clearly sequenced with explicit validation checkpoints (connectivity verification before writing .mcp.json) and feedback loops (HTTP 401→new token, ExpiredTokenException→re-auth, re-validate on failure).

3 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

Organized into well-labeled numbered steps with no external bundle files to navigate; the troubleshooting and guidance sections are clearly separated, so the single-file structure is appropriate and easy to navigate.

Description

100%

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

A strong, third-person description: concrete actions, explicit positive and negative triggers, and natural user phrasing. It clearly states both what it does and when to use it, with a guard against false triggering.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists concrete actions — 'Setup and diagnostics', 'Triggers when aws-devops-agent is missing from .mcp.json', 'connection is broken' — naming a specific MCP key, file, and failure modes.

3 / 3

Completeness

Explicitly answers what (setup and diagnostics for the MCP connection) and when (missing key, broken connection, or the named phrases), and adds an explicit negative trigger ('Does NOT trigger if the MCP is already connected and working').

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Captures natural phrases a user would say — 'set up devops agent' / 'configure agent' — plus the technical signal 'aws-devops-agent' missing from '.mcp.json', covering both verbal and config-driven triggers.

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Targets a narrow niche (the specific aws-devops-agent MCP config) with distinct triggers and an explicit non-trigger guard, making collision with unrelated skills unlikely.
