What it does

Creating Production Vpc Multi Az is an agent skill from aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Creates a production-ready VPC with public and private subnets across multiple Availability Zones, including internet gateway, NAT gateways, route tables, and security groups following AWS Well-Architected principles. Use when deploying multi-AZ VPC infrastructure with automatic CIDR planning and DNS resolution.

Its SKILL.md is about 530 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/create-production-vpc-multi-az.md`).

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Cloud architecture. It works with Amazon Web Services. The repository describes itself as: Official, AWS-supported MCP servers, skills, and plugins to help AI agents build on AWS. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Deploying multi-AZ VPC infrastructure with automatic CIDR planning and DNS resolution
  • Tasks that involve Cloud architecture

Example prompts

  • “Use the creating-production-vpc-multi-az skill to create a production-ready VPC with public and private subnets across multiple Availability Zones…”
  • “/creating-production-vpc-multi-az”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit df2ab44. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • aws

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use aws, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Creating Production Vpc Multi Az loads about 533 tokens when it runs, and up to ~4.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 87 tokens; SKILL.md has 211 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~87
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~533
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~4.5k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Creating a Production-Ready VPC Across Multiple Availability Zones

Overview

Domain expertise for creating production-ready VPC infrastructure distributed across multiple Availability Zones. Covers VPC creation with DNS support, public and private subnet layout with automatic CIDR calculation, internet gateway, NAT gateways for high-availability outbound access, route table configuration, and tiered security groups following AWS Well-Architected principles.

Create a production VPC

To create a fully configured multi-AZ VPC with public/private subnets, NAT gateways, route tables, and security groups, follow the procedure exactly. See Production VPC creation procedure.

Key parameters:

  • vpc_name (required): Name prefix for all resources
  • region (required): Target AWS region
  • allowed_web_cidrs (required): CIDR blocks allowed for web access — allow 0.0.0.0/0 only if explicitly requested
  • vpc_cidr (optional, default 10.0.0.0/16): VPC CIDR block
  • availability_zones (optional, default 3): Number of AZs (2–6)
  • environment (required): Environment tag
  • enable_ssh_access (optional, default false): Whether to create SSH security group

Troubleshooting

Insufficient Availability Zones

The target region must have at least 2 available AZs. Use aws ec2 describe-availability-zones to verify.

NAT Gateway creation delays

NAT Gateways can take several minutes to become available. The procedure waits for availability before configuring route tables.

Security group CIDR warnings

The procedure warns about 0.0.0.0/0 for web access CIDRs and recommends specific IP ranges for production workloads, but allows it if explicitly requested.
