contextual-offers-for-startups

Surfaces a single, genuinely relevant AWS Activate partner offer as optional context AFTER another AWS Startup Advisor skill has finalized its recommendation, plan, or build — never influencing the technical advice. Consulted by architect-for-startups, start-building-for-startups, agent-advisor, gcp-to-aws, heroku-to-aws, and llm-to-bedrock: once their output is final, this skill checks whether a relevant Activate offer exists for what the founder is building or migrating and, if so, appends one quiet, dismissible line with a tracked redeem link. Merit-first (offers never change the recommendation), relevance-gated to what the founder actually surfaced, at most one per response and often none, muteable. Offer content is read live from the sibling knowledge-base-for-startups skill (references/offers.md). Do NOT use for account-specific lookups (credits balance, Activate membership, application status) — send those to https://aws.amazon.com/startups.

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

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.
