Discover more about what's new at AWS with AWS Command Line Interface adds PKCE-based authorization for single sign-on

Today, AWS expanded the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) commands for the https://docs.aws.amazon.com/agent-toolkit/latest/userguide/what-is-agent-toolkit.html with two new capabilities that make it easier to keep agent skills up to date. Customers can now run aws agent-toolkit check-skill-updates to compare all installed skills against the latest versions available in the registry, and use aws agent-toolkit update-skill --all to update every outdated skill in a single command. The Agent Toolkit for AWS consists of the AWS MCP Server (which provides a secure, auditable agent interface to 15,000+ AWS APIs), agent skills (which give agents expert guidance across storage, networking, analytics, and more), and plugins (which bundle the MCP server and curate sets of skills into a single install). Previously, customers needed to check and update each skill individually. With these additions to AWS CLI, developers can quickly identify which skills have newer versions available and bring their entire skill set current without managing updates one at a time. This is especially useful for teams that have installed many skills across serverless, storage, networking, analytics, and other domains, and want to ensure their coding agents always operate with the latest guidance. These new commands are added to the existing set of AWS CLI capabilities for the Agent Toolkit, which already allows customers to install, search, and configure the AWS MCP Server and agent skills across Kiro, Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and other popular coding agents.  To get started, see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/agent-toolkit/latest/userguide/aws-cli.html in the Agent Toolkit for AWS user guide. Make sure you have AWS CLI version 2.37.0 or later installed. The AWS MCP Server is available in the US East (N. Virginia) and Europe (Frankfurt) Regions.

The AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) v2 now supports OAuth 2.0 authorization code flows using the Proof Key for Code Exchange (PKCE) standard. This provides a simple and safe way to retrieve credentials for AWS CLI commands. The AWS CLI is a unified tool that enables you to control multiple AWS services from the command line and to automate them through scripts. AWS CLI v2 offers integration with AWS IAM Identity Center, the recommended service for managing workforce access to AWS applications and multiple AWS accounts. The authorization code flow with PKCE is the recommended best practice for access to AWS resources from desktops and mobile devices with web browsers. It is now the default behavior when running the aws sso login or aws configure sso commands. To learn more, see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-configure-sso.html in the AWS CLI User Guide. Share your questions, comments, and issues with us on https://github.com/aws/aws-cli. AWS IAM Identity Center is available at no additional cost in https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/sso.html.  

In this post, we extend that foundation to demonstrate how QA Studio addresses batch regression testing and pipeline integration through test suites that organize and parallelize execution, and a command-line interface that brings agentic testing into automated CI/CD pipelines.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is launching a new collection of developer-focused resources for the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI). These resources demonstrate working end-to-end shell scripts for working with AWS services and best practices that simplify the process of authoring shell scripts that handle errors, track created resources, and perform cleanup operations. The new AWS Developer Tutorials project on GitHub provides a library of tested, scenario-focused AWS CLI scripts covering over 60 AWS services. These tutorials provide quicker ways to get started using an AWS service API with the AWS CLI. Leveraging generative AI and existing documentation, developers can now more easily create working scripts for their own resources, saving time and reducing errors when managing AWS resources through the AWS CLI. Each script includes a tutorial that explains how the script works with the AWS service API to create, interact with, and clean up resources. The project also includes instructions that you can use to generate and contribute new scripts. You can use existing content and examples with generative AI tools such as the Amazon Q Developer CLI to generate a working script through an iterative test-and-improve process. Depending on how well-documented the use case is, this process can take as little as 15 minutes. For scenarios that don’t have existing examples of API calls with input and output, it can take more iterations to get a working script. Sometimes you need to provide additional information or examples from your own testing to fill in a gap. This process can actually be quite fun! To get started, see AWS Developer Tutorials. For more information on the project, see our post on Builder Center.

Getting credentials for local development with AWS is now simpler and more secure. A new AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) command, aws login, lets you start building immediately after signing up for AWS without creating and managing long-term access keys. You use the same sign-in method you already use for the AWS Management Console. […]
