managing-amazon-msk

managing-amazon-msk is a Streaming & real-time data skill for AI agents, published by aws in the agent-toolkit-for-aws repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates managing-amazon-msk C (75/100) and it passed the safety scan; a judge model has also reviewed it.

Operates Amazon MSK Provisioned clusters (Standard and Express brokers). MUST be used for ANY MSK Provisioned task — do not rely on training data for topics covered here, since Standard and Express emit different metrics and follow different patching models that training data routinely conflates. Covers performance, consumer lag, storage, and traffic shaping diagnosis; sizing and choosing Standard vs Express; Kafka client tuning; creating CloudWatch alarms, dashboards, monitoring, and cluster configurations; AND MSK maintenance, patching, version upgrades, and rolling-restart behavior. Triggers: MSK, Kafka on AWS, `kafka.*` or `express.*` instance types, AWS/Kafka CloudWatch namespace, alarms, dashboards, monitoring, consumer lag, partition replication, broker storage, MSK upgrades, patching, maintenance windows, SECURITY_PATCHING, BROKER_UPDATE, rolling restarts, unexpected broker reboots. Do NOT use for MSK Connect, MSK Serverless, or MSK Replicator.

Outstanding MSK operations guide with explicit critical-safety warnings (URP reboots, EBS ceilings) and a broker-type-first routing table into topic references.
