Who it is forA developer who works in the terminal and wants the toolkit without a specific IDE.
The problemNot every team uses Claude Code or Kiro, and the setup differs for each agent.
The outcomeThe Agent Toolkit available from your terminal, or the aws-core plugin installable inside Codex.
What you need first
- A supported coding agent such as Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Devin, Kiro or fx
- uv installed for the Kiro, fx and other-agent setups
- An AWS account with credentials configured locally for API calls and script execution (not needed for documentation search or skill discovery)
Steps
- For the AWS CLI, run
aws configure agent-toolkitand follow the AWS CLI integration guide - For Codex, run
codex plugin marketplace add aws/agent-toolkit-for-awsin your terminal - Launch Codex and run
/pluginsto browse and install the aws-core plugin - For Devin, run
devin plugins install aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws#plugins/aws-coreafterdevin auth login
Prompt for your agent
Following aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws, run `codex plugin marketplace add aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws`, then tell me how to install aws-core from /plugins. Do not change any AWS resources.
Caveat. The README sends you to the AWS docs for CLI setup details, so read that guide for configuration options.
Use this in your AI agent
Ask your agent
Using the Deduped MCP, get the setup steps for aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws and "Use the toolkit from the AWS CLI or Codex"
Add Deduped to Claude Code once
