knowledge-base-for-startups

AWS Startups reference content — Activate FAQ, credits guide, programs, partner offers, sample architectures, and hundreds of learn articles spanning generative AI, cloud architecture, cost optimization, security, fundraising, go-to-market, and real-world startup case studies. Use when the user asks factual questions about AWS Activate (eligibility, credits, programs, providers), wants a sample architecture or solution guide, or needs an AWS-curated learn article on a specific startup topic. For copy-paste AI prompts (RAG chatbot, MVP scaffold, security baseline, GPU quota, etc.), see the prompt-library-for-startups skill. Do not use for: account-specific lookups (credits balance, Activate membership status, application status), real-time event listings beyond the events stub, or content not present in the bundled `references/` tree.

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.
