Amazon Aurora Mysql

Handles Aurora MySQL cluster operations with safety rails and a routing system that loads only what you need for each task. Covers ACU sizing for serverless, I/O-Optimized storage evaluation (the 25% threshold rule), commitment pricing analysis, and MySQL version upgrades. It knows Aurora MySQL uses full VPC configuration, not the express setup that PostgreSQL gets. The guardrails are tiered: simple changes get a quick confirmation, high-impact stuff like storage switches or instance class changes force you to acknowledge the specific risk first. Executes via MCP when available, falls back to CLI otherwise. If you're doing Aurora PostgreSQL instead, there's a separate skill for that.

Amazon Aurora MySQL

A modular toolkit for Aurora MySQL organized as a registry of sub-skills. Each sub-skill handles one domain of Aurora MySQL work. The router matches user intent to the right sub-skill, then loads only the references needed. (For Aurora PostgreSQL — and its express-configuration quick-start — use the amazon-aurora-postgresql skill.)

Operating procedure (follow in order)

  1. Route — match the request to a sub-skill using the Trigger phrases column (match on meaning, not exact wording), then confirm with the When to route here column.
  2. Load — file_read the matched sub-skill's references/{id}-instructions.md and announce the path. Do not answer a matched sub-skill from general knowledge alone.
  3. Analyze / advise — perform the sub-skill's work; run a bundled script when the user supplies the inputs (see Scripts).
  4. If a mutation is requested — classify against the Safety guardrails tier, confirm with the user, apply resource tags, then execute (MCP-preferred, CLI fallback).
  5. Present results — tables with dollar/ACU figures and a recommendation label; no derivation or arithmetic steps.
