## What it does

Seventeen skills and one MCP server ship in the package. The skills split into two groups. Model customization covers the fine-tuning path: planning, project directory setup, use case definition, dataset validation and conversion, technique and base model selection (SFT, DPO, RLVR), hyperparameters and training jobs, evaluation design with LLM-as-a-judge, and deployment to SageMaker or Bedrock. HyperPod operations cover the cluster side: remote command execution and file transfer over SSM, version comparison across nodes, diagnostic reports, and debugging of cluster creation failures, EFA health, lifecycle scripts, NCCL hangs and AllReduce timeouts, per-node GPU or disk problems, uneven bandwidth and straggler nodes, and stuck Slurm jobs.

The `aws-mcp` server pulls AWS documentation and SOPs through `mcp-proxy-for-aws`. `uv` has to be installed first. In Claude you add the marketplace and then install the plugin; Cursor users run `/add-plugin sagemaker-ai`. For Claude and other agents the skills go in manually through the Skills CLI, and `.mcp.json` is copied into the agent config, for instance `.kiro/settings/mcp.json`. No HyperPod clusters in your account means the debugging half has nothing to work on.

The skills ask questions and assemble a plan rather than doing the work for you. Training runs and deployments stay in your hands. The plan adapts as the project moves, so you can change the use case at any step.

## Requirements
- Works with: AWS

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

**Plugin marketplace**
In the agent chat (not a shell):
```text
/plugin install sagemaker-ai@claude-plugins-official
```
In the agent chat (not a shell):
```text
/plugin marketplace add anthropics/claude-plugins-official
```

## When to use it
- define a fine-tuning use case and success criteria
- validate a dataset and convert it to SageMaker format
- pick a fine-tuning technique and base model
- configure hyperparameters and launch a training job
- debug an NCCL hang or AllReduce timeout on HyperPod

## Example prompts
- help me plan fine-tuning a model for our use case
- check this dataset and convert it for SageMaker training
- figure out why Slurm jobs are stuck pending on HyperPod

## Overview

This plugin brings deep AWS AI/ML expertise directly into your coding assistant, covering the surface area of [Amazon SageMaker AI](https://aws.amazon.com/sagemaker/ai/); currently, skills are provided to assist with the following capability areas:

- **Model Customization** — End-to-end guided workflows for fine-tuning foundation models, from use case definition through data preparation, training, evaluation, and deployment on Amazon SageMaker AI.
- **HyperPod Cluster Operations** — Remote command execution on nodes via SSM, version checking, diagnostic reporting, and deep debugging for SageMaker HyperPod training clusters.
