agents-deploy

Use when deploying your agent to AWS, or when a deploy has failed. Handles pre-flight validation, CDK/IAM/quota error diagnosis, version management, rollback, and canary deployments. Triggers on: "deploy my agent", "agentcore deploy", "deploy failed", "CDK error", "rollback", "canary deploy", "pin version", "redeploy", "deploy stuck". Not for production hardening — use agents-harden. Not for adding capabilities before deploy — use agents-build or agents-connect. Not for VPC configuration errors — use agents-build.

Warnings (don't change the verdict):

An agent can have at most 8 skills. Custom skills aren't available in tenants that use Microsoft Purview Information Barriers.

Agent Skills spec notes
Compatible isn't the same as safe. These verdicts only say whether a skill's files follow Microsoft's documented load rules. The checker reads files and never runs them, and it doesn't review what a skill or its scripts actually do. Read a skill's instructions and scripts before you add it to an agent.
