AI-generated overview

Manages AWS S3 buckets: creation, versioning, encryption, access control, lifecycle policies and replication.

What it does: This skill guides an agent through managing Amazon S3 object storage, covering bucket creation and configuration, versioning, server-side encryption, public-access blocking, bucket policies, lifecycle policies and cross-region replication. It provides AWS CLI command examples plus reference guides for CLI configuration, lifecycle rules, Terraform configuration and presigned URLs. It also ships a validation script and an API scaffold template, and lists best practices for secure bucket operation.
When to use it: Use it for object storage tasks such as static website hosting, backup and archival, media libraries and CDN origins, data lakes, log storage, application asset storage, disaster recovery, and data sharing. It fits when buckets must be configured with encryption, versioning, access controls or lifecycle rules.
Requirements: Requires AWS CLI access to an AWS account with permissions for S3 operations, and Terraform for the infrastructure-as-code reference. Network access to AWS is needed. It ships executable scripts (scripts/validate-api.sh) and a template (templates/api-scaffold.yaml).

Overview

Amazon S3 provides secure, durable, and highly scalable object storage. Manage buckets with encryption, versioning, access controls, lifecycle policies, and cross-region replication for reliable data storage and retrieval.

When to Use

Static website hosting
Data backup and archival
Media library and CDN origin
Data lake and analytics
Log storage and analysis
Application asset storage
Disaster recovery
Data sharing and collaboration

Quick Start

Minimal working example:

bash

# Create bucketaws s3api create-bucket \  --bucket my-app-bucket-$(date +%s) \  --region us-east-1
# Enable versioningaws s3api put-bucket-versioning \  --bucket my-app-bucket \  --versioning-configuration Status=Enabled
# Block public accessaws s3api put-public-access-block \  --bucket my-app-bucket \  --public-access-block-configuration \    BlockPublicAcls=true,IgnorePublicAcls=true,\    BlockPublicPolicy=true,RestrictPublicBuckets=true
# Enable encryptionaws s3api put-bucket-encryption \  --bucket my-app-bucket \  --server-side-encryption-configuration '{    "Rules": [{      "ApplyServerSideEncryptionByDefault": {        "SSEAlgorithm": "AES256"      }// ... (see reference guides for full implementation)

Best Practices

✅ DO

Enable versioning for important data
Use server-side encryption
Block public access by default
Implement lifecycle policies
Enable logging and monitoring
Use bucket policies for access control
Enable MFA delete for critical buckets
Use IAM roles instead of access keys
Implement cross-region replication

❌ DON'T

Make buckets publicly accessible
Store sensitive credentials
Ignore CloudTrail logging
Use overly permissive policies
Forget to set lifecycle rules
Ignore encryption requirements
