## What it does

The skill acts as a routing layer between several AgentSpaces inside one Claude session. It starts with `aws_devops_agent__list_agent_spaces` to see how many spaces exist. One space means the skill does not apply — use `chatting-with-aws-devops-agent` or `investigating-incidents-with-aws-devops-agent` directly, with no `agent_space_id`.

From there the question shape decides the path. A comparison like prod versus staging fans out into parallel `chat` calls, and the answers get merged into a single delta instead of two pasted dumps. Runbook questions go to the knowledge space. When the environment is ambiguous, the skill asks once rather than firing into the wrong account.

SigV4 authentication is required. Bearer tokens are scoped to one AgentSpace and cannot route elsewhere, so multi-space work breaks on them. The `chat` tool buffers the full response server-side, and a complex cross-account query can take 30–90 seconds per space; past 90 seconds the skill treats it as a scope mismatch and moves on. Investigations keep state per space, so a cross-account issue may need two separate `investigate` calls with both `taskId`s tracked. That case is rare — one space usually owns the problem.

## Requirements
- Works with: AWS

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws --skill coordinating-multi-space-devops-agent -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/coordinating-multi-space-devops-agent/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/coordinating-multi-space-devops-agent/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws --skill coordinating-multi-space-devops-agent -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/coordinating-multi-space-devops-agent/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws --skill coordinating-multi-space-devops-agent -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/coordinating-multi-space-devops-agent/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws coordinating-multi-space-devops-agent
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/coordinating-multi-space-devops-agent/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws --skill coordinating-multi-space-devops-agent -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws --path plugins/aws-agents-for-devsecops/skills/coordinating-multi-space-devops-agent
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/coordinating-multi-space-devops-agent/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws --skill coordinating-multi-space-devops-agent -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws/tree/HEAD/plugins/aws-agents-for-devsecops/skills/coordinating-multi-space-devops-agent/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- route a question to the matching space without asking twice
- compare error rates in prod and staging in one answer
- pull a shared runbook from the knowledge space and apply it to a target environment
- map which AWS accounts and services each space covers
- avoid launching an investigation in the wrong account

## Example prompts
- Compare error rates between prod and staging
- What's our runbook for ECS 503 errors?
- Open an investigation for the latency spike on the prod side

name: coordinating-multi-space-devops-agent
description: Coordinate the AWS DevOps Agent across multiple AgentSpaces from one Claude Code session — route questions to the right space (prod vs staging vs knowledge), query several spaces in parallel and synthesize, or compare findings across accounts. Use whenever the user has more than one AgentSpace configured, mentions multiple AWS accounts, or asks something like "check both prod and staging", "compare across accounts", or "ask the knowledge space".

# Querying multiple AgentSpaces

## Pre-flight

If `aws_devops_agent__list_agent_spaces` is **not** in your available tools, the remote MCP server is not connected. Tell the user to ask "help me set up the AWS DevOps Agent" so the `setup-devops-agent` skill auto-loads.

## Prerequisite: SigV4 auth required

Multi-space routing requires **SigV4 authentication** — Bearer tokens are scoped to a single AgentSpace and cannot route to other spaces.

Many real teams run **more than one AgentSpace** — typically a production space, a staging space, and a dedicated "knowledge" space that holds runbooks shared across accounts. Each space has its own set of associated AWS accounts, runbooks, and history.

This skill is the routing brain. Use it when the user has multiple spaces configured, or when a question genuinely spans accounts.

## Discovering spaces

```
aws_devops_agent__list_agent_spaces()
→ {"agentSpaces": [{"agentSpaceId": "as-abc123", "name": "prod"}, ...]}
```

If only one space is returned, this skill doesn't apply — use `chatting-with-aws-devops-agent` or `investigating-incidents-with-aws-devops-agent` directly (no `agent_space_id` needed).

If more than one is returned, decide whether the user's question is:

| Question shape | Strategy |
|---------------|----------|
| Scoped to one environment ("prod is broken") | Single space — pick the matching one |
| Spans environments ("compare prod vs staging") | **Parallel** — query each, synthesize |
