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)

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.

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.

Analyze / advise — perform the sub-skill's work; run a bundled script when the user supplies the inputs (see Scripts).

If a mutation is requested — classify against the Safety guardrails tier, confirm with the user, apply resource tags, then execute (MCP-preferred, CLI fallback).

Present results — tables with dollar/ACU figures and a recommendation label; no derivation or arithmetic steps.

Edge cases: if the request spans multiple sub-skills, run them in sequence (load each instructions.md in turn). If no sub-skill matches, answer directly from Aurora MySQL knowledge. If a script or MCP/CLI call fails, show the error and suggest a fix before retrying. The numbered Global rules below are details that hang off these steps.

Sub-skill registry

Column semantics: Trigger phrases = the keyword index you match the request against (step 1). When to route here = the decision logic confirming the match. Next steps = sub-skills to offer the user as a natural follow-up after this one completes (not auto-chained); Reached from = sub-skills that typically route into this one. Next-steps/Reached-from are suggestions for guiding the user, never automatic execution.
