Migrate to Bedrock (Assess + Execute)

Single-command AI migration: OpenAI / Gemini / Anthropic → Amazon Bedrock.

Requires the
gcp-to-aws
skill installed alongside this one. This skill has no standalone Assess implementation — Phase A below runs Assess by directly reading and executing

gcp-to-aws

's own phase instruction files in this same session (the same inline-execution pattern

agent-advisor

uses for its

migration-plan

phase: no cross-skill tool call, no turn boundary, and no dependency on your agent supporting a Skill/subagent dispatch mechanism — reading a file works on any agent). There is no fallback path that performs Assess itself if

gcp-to-aws

is missing. If you installed this skill on its own (e.g. a single-skill

npx skills add

), install

gcp-to-aws

too before using it.

The skill base directory is given in the "Base directory for this skill: X" line the harness emits at load time. Call it

<SKILL_BASE>

. Derived paths:

```
$SCRIPTS
```
=
```
<SKILL_BASE>/scripts
```
```
$HELPERS
```
=
```
<SKILL_BASE>/references/helpers
```
(the former helper skills, now references)
```
$GCP_BASE
```
=
```
<SKILL_BASE>/../gcp-to-aws
```
— the sibling
```
gcp-to-aws
```
skill's own directory. Phase A reads its instruction files directly off this path; every relative reference inside a
```
gcp-to-aws
```
file (
```
references/shared/...
```
,
```
references/phases/...
```
, etc.) resolves under
```
$GCP_BASE
```
, exactly as it would if
```
gcp-to-aws
```
were running standalone.

Step 0 — Check prerequisites

0a. Check that

uv

is available

bash

uv --version 2>/dev/null || echo "MISSING"

If missing: "Install uv first — see the official install guide: https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/ (e.g.

brew install uv

pipx install uv

)". Stop.

0a-bis. Route: full migration vs. access-only

This skill has two modes. Decide which the user wants before the gcp-to-aws check (0b) — the access-only mode does not use

gcp-to-aws

at all, so requiring it there would block a user who only wants access enablement.

Route to Access-only mode (jump to the "## Access-only mode" section below, skip 0b and Steps 1+) when either is true:

```
$ARGUMENTS
```
contains an explicit access-request phrase —
```
model access
```
,
```
request access
```
,
```
enable model access
```
,
```
just access
```
, or
```
preflight
```
(and no source-code path). Do not route on the bare words
```
enable
```
or
```
access
```
alone — "enable the Bedrock rewrite" is a full migration, not an access request. When in doubt, use the AskUserQuestion below rather than the keyword. Or
the user's request is about getting Bedrock model access enabled rather than rewriting code — e.g. "help me request access to Claude on Bedrock", "enable GPT models on Bedrock", "which models do I need to turn on", "I just want access, my engineers will do the migration".

If it is ambiguous (the user mentions both a codebase and access), AskUserQuestion:

"Two things I can do — which do you want? [Full migration] Rewrite your OpenAI/Gemini/Anthropic calls for Bedrock end-to-end. [Just model access] Check and walk you through enabling Bedrock access for specific models, no code changes."

[Just model access]

→ Access-only mode.

[Full migration]

→ continue to 0b.

Otherwise (a code path / clear rewrite intent) → continue to 0b for the full migration.

0b. Check that the gcp-to-aws sibling skill is installed

Phase A below runs Assess by directly reading and executing

gcp-to-aws

's own phase instruction files (Discover → Clarify → Design → Estimate, AI-only path) in this same session — there is no Assess logic in this skill to fall back to.

gcp-to-aws

is a separate skill, not bundled inside this one — a single-skill install (e.g.

npx skills add ... --skill llm-to-bedrock

) does not bring it along automatically. Check for it now, before promising the user an Assess phase this deployment cannot run:

bash

[ -f "<SKILL_BASE>/../gcp-to-aws/SKILL.md" ] && echo GCP_TO_AWS_PRESENT || echo GCP_TO_AWS_MISSING

This checks the sibling directory relative to

<SKILL_BASE>

(defined above), which works under any install path — native plugin install and

npx skills add --skill '*'

both place

gcp-to-aws

as a sibling of this skill's own directory. It does not depend on

${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}

```
GCP_TO_AWS_PRESENT
```
→ proceed to Step 1.
```
GCP_TO_AWS_MISSING
```
→ stop here — do not proceed. Tell the user:
"This migration needs the
gcp-to-aws
skill installed alongside this one — it handles code scanning, AI-workload detection, and Bedrock model design; I can't do that part myself without it.
gcp-to-aws
ships in the same
aws-startup-advisor
plugin as this skill, so if you installed the whole plugin it should already be next to me — it looks like only some of the plugin's skills were installed. Install the pair together with:
npx skills add aws/agent-toolkit-for-aws/plugins/aws-startup-advisor/skills --skill llm-to-bedrock --skill gcp-to-aws
(use the same
--agent
and
--global
/project scope you used for this skill), or run that same
npx skills add
command with
--skill '*'
instead of the two skill names to get every skill at once. Then restart your agent and ask me to migrate again."
Do not perform the Assess phase yourself as a workaround — Phase A below is explicit that Assess logic lives only in
```
gcp-to-aws
```
; re-implementing it here would drift out of sync with that skill's Discover/Clarify/Design logic over time. There is no standalone Assess for this skill — this check exists to fail fast and clearly, not to unlock alternate behavior.

Phase A reads

gcp-to-aws

's files directly off disk rather than invoking it as a skill, so there is no separate agent-capability requirement here — any agent that can read a file and run Bash can execute this. (An earlier version of this skill invoked

gcp-to-aws

via a cross-skill Skill-tool call; that mechanism is Claude-Code-specific and unverified elsewhere, which is exactly why Phase A no longer uses it.)

Step 1 — Collect source code path

$ARGUMENTS

contains a path, use it as

$REPO

. Otherwise use AskUserQuestion: "Where is your source code? Enter a local path or GitHub URL."

If a GitHub URL,

git clone

it to a temp dir; use that path as

$REPO

Checks on $REPO:

Git-root check (compare resolved paths — on macOS
```
/tmp
```
resolves to
```
/private/tmp
```
, so a raw string comparison false-positives):
bash
```
[ "$(git -C <REPO> rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null)" = "$(cd <REPO> && pwd -P)" ] && echo GIT_ROOT_OK || echo GIT_ROOT_MISMATCH
```
- ```
GIT_ROOT_OK
```
  → proceed.
- ```
GIT_ROOT_MISMATCH
```
  and the command errored (not a git repo at all) → tell the user the path must be a git repository (the deliverable is a git branch); re-ask.
- ```
GIT_ROOT_MISMATCH
```
  but inside a repo (user pointed at a subdirectory) → AskUserQuestion: "Use the repo root instead" (recommended) / "Continue with this subdirectory" / "Abort".
Dirty-tree check:
bash
```
git -C <REPO> status --porcelain
```
If uncommitted changes exist, show them and AskUserQuestion: "Continue anyway" or "Let me clean up first".

Record

$REPO

for all subsequent steps.

Phase A — Assess (runs gcp-to-aws's own AI-path files, inline)

Do NOT read source code, detect AI SDKs, or ask Clarify questions yourself from scratch. This phase reads

gcp-to-aws

's own phase instruction files off disk and follows them exactly as if

gcp-to-aws

were running standalone — the same content, the same state file, the same artifacts. The only difference from invoking

gcp-to-aws

as a separate skill is that there is no tool call and no turn boundary: everything below runs inline, in this session.

Path resolution.

gcp-to-aws

instruction files use relative references (

references/phases/...

references/shared/...

references/vendored/...

references/design-refs/...

shared/...

design-refs/...

phases/...

data/...

— including the short forms). Resolve every one of them under

$GCP_BASE

(defined above), exactly the prefix it's written with, e.g.

shared/pricing-cache.md

→

$GCP_BASE/references/shared/pricing-cache.md

$MIGRATION_DIR

is the one path that does not resolve under

$GCP_BASE

— it stays under

$REPO

per gcp-to-aws's own convention (A1 below).

gcp-to-aws

's files are read-only here — this phase never edits them.

A1 — Run Discover, Clarify, Design, and Estimate

Tell the user, before starting:

"I'm now running the Discover → Clarify → Design → Estimate assessment (the same logic
gcp-to-aws
uses standalone) to detect your AI workloads and design the Bedrock migration. It'll ask you some questions — please answer them."

Then, in order:

Resolve
$MIGRATION_DIR
. Check for an existing
```
.migration/
```
directory at
```
$REPO
```
exactly as
```
$GCP_BASE/references/phases/discover/discover.md
```
Step 0 describes (list existing runs and offer Resume/Fresh/Cancel if any exist; otherwise create
```
$REPO/.migration/<MMDD-HHMM>/
```
with the current timestamp and set
```
$MIGRATION_DIR
```
to it). A directory that exists but has no
.phase-status.json
yet is NOT an existing run — treat it as fresh and skip discover.md's Resume/Fresh/Cancel prompt for it (same exception
```
agent-advisor
```
's
```
migration-plan.md
```
Phase A documents for its own inline gcp-to-aws delegation). This matters here because llm-to-bedrock does not pre-create
```
$MIGRATION_DIR
```
before this step — but a run interrupted after this step creates the directory and before discover.md's Step 0 writes
```
.phase-status.json
```
would otherwise leave exactly this directory (present, but state-less) for a later resume, and discover.md's Resume branch would then try to read a
```
.phase-status.json
```
that doesn't exist.
Read and execute
```
$GCP_BASE/references/phases/discover/discover.md
```
in full, exactly as written, including its own Step 0 state-file initialization (skip Step 0 if resuming —
```
$MIGRATION_DIR
```
already has a
```
.phase-status.json
```
) and its Step 1 sub-discovery gates (1a–1e). Those gates already key off what's actually present in
```
$REPO
```
— IaC discovery only runs if Terraform files exist there, billing discovery only if billing exports exist, and so on; you do not need to steer it. If the source provider is OpenAI,
```
discover.md
```
's own Step 1e will offer its OpenAI Admin API usage discovery (
```
discover-openai-api.md
```
— read-only, consent-gated, needs an Admin key with Usage set to Read) when applicable; accepting it gives Estimate real spend and token volumes without manual CSV exports.
When Discover's Step 0 writes the run's
```
.phase-status.json
```
, it must record
```
"initiated_by": "LLM_TO_BEDROCK"
```
beside
```
owning_skill
```
(which stays
```
GCP_TO_AWS
```
, per
```
discover.md
```
's own instruction for a run started by another skill): this run was started by llm-to-bedrock, and that is how telemetry attributes it.
On
```
HANDOFF_OK
```
: at least one of
```
ai-workload-profile.json
```
,
```
gcp-resource-inventory.json
```
, or
```
billing-profile.json
```
is present in
```
$MIGRATION_DIR
```
.
Read and execute
```
$GCP_BASE/references/phases/clarify/clarify.md
```
in full. It routes itself — when
```
ai-workload-profile.json
```
is the only discovery artifact, it reads
```
clarify-ai-only.md
```
and runs that standalone flow; if infra artifacts also exist, it runs the fragment/assembler split instead. Either way, follow what it loads exactly. On
```
HANDOFF_OK
```
:
```
preferences.json
```
is present in
```
$MIGRATION_DIR
```
.
Read and execute
```
$GCP_BASE/references/phases/design/design.md
```
in full. It routes to
```
design-ai.md
```
when
```
ai-workload-profile.json
```
exists — that is the file this skill's Execute phase depends on. On
```
HANDOFF_OK
```
:
```
aws-design-ai.json
```
is present in
```
$MIGRATION_DIR
```
(plus
```
aws-design.json
```
/
```
aws-design-billing.json
```
too, if an infra or billing route also ran).
Read and execute
```
$GCP_BASE/references/phases/estimate/estimate.md
```
in full. You do not need to continue past Estimate — this skill only needs the Assess artifacts (
```
aws-design-ai.json
```
,
```
ai-workload-profile.json
```
,
```
preferences.json
```
), so once
```
estimate.md
```
reaches its post-Estimate decision gate, choosing not to generate infra (or simply stopping at the decision pack) is enough; you never read anything
```
generate.md
```
would produce (Terraform,
```
MIGRATION_GUIDE.md
```
,
```
migration-report.html
```
).

Each file above manages

$MIGRATION_DIR/.phase-status.json

itself, per its own protocol — do not write to that file yourself, other than the

initiated_by

field named in step 2 above. If any file's own

_postconditions

/handoff checks fail (

GATE_FAIL

), stop and show the user exactly what that file reported; do not patch an artifact to force a gate to pass.

A2 — Confirm Assess is complete

Since Phase A above ran every step through Estimate inline (not across separate invocations), Assess is complete once step 5 of A1 finishes without a

GATE_FAIL

. This check exists as a backstop in case the session was interrupted partway through A1 (e.g. the user stopped mid-Clarify and is resuming later) — re-read

$MIGRATION_DIR/.phase-status.json

and resume A1 at whichever step in

phases

is not yet

"completed"

, rather than restarting from Discover.

Before trusting that re-read, apply
gcp-to-aws/SKILL.md
§ State Validation (the same contract A1's own phase files rely on when THEY read this state, so this wrapper-level backstop re-read must not be held to a looser standard). In particular: if

.phase-status.json

fails to parse (an interrupted write left it invalid — e.g. the session was interrupted mid-write, not just mid-phase), § State Validation check 2's reconstruction procedure is the one and only sanctioned way to recover it — infer completed phases from the artifacts actually present in

$MIGRATION_DIR

, present the inferred status to the user for confirmation, and rewrite

.phase-status.json

only on that confirmation. This is a narrow, explicit exception to A1's "do not write to that file yourself" rule:

.phase-status.json

recovery per this contract is not the same act as a phase file's own state management, and proceeding here without it would mean this wrapper resumes on state it never validated, unlike every phase file it delegates to.

Workshop guard: if

phases.workshop == "in_progress"

design.md

's inner-workshop path is actively repricing (

workshop-refresh.md

is rewriting

aws-design-ai.json

between an old and a new mapping) — finish that loop (it resolves

phases.workshop

back to

"completed"

on exit or decline) before treating Design as done.

A3 — Locate Assess output

Use the SAME
$MIGRATION_DIR
A1/A2 already resolved and confirmed — do NOT re-select a directory here.

$MIGRATION_DIR

is already set from A1 step 1 (and re-confirmed, not replaced, by A2's re-read on a resumed session); re-running a "newest directory" lookup (

ls -td "$REPO/.migration"/*/ | head -1

) at this point can select a DIFFERENT, newer run than the one A2 just verified was complete — e.g. a sibling run whose own Design is still in progress. B1 would then read that sibling's unfinished model map instead of the run this phase actually assessed, with no error raised (the newer directory can genuinely contain all three files below, just from a different, incomplete assessment). If

$MIGRATION_DIR

is somehow unset here (it should never be, given A1/A2 above), that is a bug in this phase's own state tracking — stop and report it rather than guessing a directory from

ls -td

Verify all three of these files exist in

$MIGRATION_DIR

(Phase B reads every one):

```
aws-design-ai.json
```
(model mapping + architecture)
```
ai-workload-profile.json
```
(detected workloads)
```
preferences.json
```
(user preferences from Clarify)

If any of the three is missing, Assess did not complete the AI path correctly — name the missing file(s), show the error, and stop. A1 running to completion without a

GATE_FAIL

should already guarantee this; this step is the backstop that confirms it before Execute reads them.

Phase B — Execute Prep

B1 — Read Assess outputs

Read

$MIGRATION_DIR/aws-design-ai.json

and extract:

ai_architecture.bedrock_models[]

→ array of

{source_model, aws_model_id, use_case}

Collect all
```
aws_model_id
```
values into
```
$TARGET_MODELS
```
(array). Keep the
```
use_case
```
of each: the preflight script probes each model by the right API automatically (Converse for chat, InvokeModel for embeddings), but the evaluator's quality scoring only applies to chat models — embedding targets get format/dimension validation only.

Read

$MIGRATION_DIR/ai-workload-profile.json

and extract:

```
summary.ai_source
```
→ source provider

Read

$MIGRATION_DIR/preferences.json

and extract:

design_constraints.target_region

→

$REGION

(default

us-east-1

if absent)

Validation: If

aws-design-ai.json

has no

ai_architecture.bedrock_models[]

array, or the array is empty, STOP: "Assess output incomplete — model mapping missing."

B2 — AWS identity confirmation

bash

aws sts get-caller-identity 2>&1

If the command fails (no credentials, expired SSO token): show the error and tell the user to run

aws configure

aws sso login

(suggest typing

! aws sso login

to run it in this session), then re-run B2. Do not proceed without a confirmed identity.

On success, show Account, Arn, UserId via AskUserQuestion: "This AWS identity will be used for Bedrock calls. Is this correct?"

Options:

Yes, use this identity → proceed
Use a different AWS profile → ask which profile, record it as
```
$AWS_PROFILE_CHOICE
```
, re-run B2 as
```
aws sts get-caller-identity --profile $AWS_PROFILE_CHOICE
```
, and re-confirm. Do NOT rely on exporting
AWS_PROFILE
— env vars do not persist across Bash tool calls or into workflow subagents (see B3). Instead pass the choice explicitly everywhere:
```
--profile
```
on every aws CLI call, and prepend
```
AWS_PROFILE=$AWS_PROFILE_CHOICE
```
inline on the B4 preflight command and inside the workflow args (
```
awsProfile
```
field) so subagents can do the same.

Also confirm region: "Bedrock region will be

$REGION

. OK or override?"

B3 — Source API key (optional)

First, create the artifact directory and make it self-ignoring IMMEDIATELY — before any key exists, so the secret is never sitting in an unignored working tree (even if the user aborts before the rewriter runs):

bash

mkdir -p "$REPO/.saws-migrate" && printf '*\n' > "$REPO/.saws-migrate/.gitignore"

Determine

$KEY_ENV_VAR

from B1's source provider (this is the env-var name the baseline skill's parser expects — a bare key without the

NAME=

prefix will NOT be parsed):

```
openai
```
→
```
OPENAI_API_KEY
```
```
anthropic
```
→
```
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY
```
```
google
```
/
```
gemini
```
→
```
GEMINI_API_KEY
```

The key must never enter this conversation (HARD RULE). Do not ask the user to paste the key in chat, and never echo, cat, or interpolate its VALUE into any command, question, or output — the agent only ever handles the file path. If the user pastes a key into the chat unprompted, do not use it: tell them it is now part of the transcript, recommend rotating it, and continue with one of the paths below.

First check whether the key is already present in the shell environment (each Bash call initializes from the user's profile, so a profile-exported key is visible to every call). POSIX-safe —

printenv

works in bash and zsh alike (

${!VAR}

indirection is bash-only and zsh errors on it). This prints presence only, never the value:

bash

[ -n "$(printenv "$KEY_ENV_VAR")" ] && echo ENV_KEY_PRESENT || echo ENV_KEY_ABSENT

AskUserQuestion: "Do you have an API key for the source model (e.g. OpenAI key for GPT-4o)? Providing it enables side-by-side quality comparison. Without it, evaluation uses absolute scoring only."

Options (offer the first only on

ENV_KEY_PRESENT

Use the
$KEY_ENV_VAR
already in my environment → materialize env var to file in one command — the value never appears in the transcript:

bash

printf '%s=%s\n' "$KEY_ENV_VAR" "$(printenv "$KEY_ENV_VAR")" > "$REPO/.saws-migrate/.source-provider-env" && chmod 600 "$REPO/.saws-migrate/.source-provider-env"

Then run the format check below and set

sourceBaselineAvailable = true

sourceKeyRef = "$REPO/.saws-migrate/.source-provider-env"

I'll write it to a file myself → give the user this command to run in THEIR OWN terminal (not through the agent; in Claude Code an
```
!
```
prefix runs it in-session) —
```
read -rs
```
collects the key without echoing it:
bash
```
read -rs k && printf '%s=%s\n' "<KEY_ENV_VAR>" "$k" > "<REPO>/.saws-migrate/.source-provider-env" && chmod 600 "<REPO>/.saws-migrate/.source-provider-env" && unset k
```
Substitute the literal env-var name and repo path when presenting it (those are not secrets). Then run the format check below and set the same flags as above.

Skip →

sourceBaselineAvailable = false

sourceKeyRef = ""

Whichever path wrote the file, verify the format (never prints the key; catches a value written without the

NAME=

prefix, which the baseline parser would silently miss):

bash

grep -qE '^(OPENAI|ANTHROPIC|GEMINI)_API_KEY=.+' "$REPO/.saws-migrate/.source-provider-env" && echo KEY_FORMAT_OK || echo KEY_FORMAT_BAD

KEY_FORMAT_BAD

, have the same path that wrote the file rewrite it (do not echo its contents).

(

.saws-migrate/

is already self-ignoring from the first command above; the rewriter re-asserts this before any commit as a second layer.)

IMPORTANT: The file is the handoff mechanism — do NOT rely on

export

to carry the key into later steps. Shell state set in one Bash call does not persist into other calls or into workflow subagents; only a profile-exported variable (the

ENV_KEY_PRESENT

path above) is reliably visible, and even that must be materialized to the file for the baseline runner.

B4 — Bedrock preflight

bash

uv run --project $SCRIPTS python $SCRIPTS/preflight_bedrock.py --region $REGION --models <comma-separated $TARGET_MODELS> --dataset-size 200

(

--dataset-size 200

matches the golden-dataset cap, so the quota warning reflects the worst case. Prefix with

AWS_PROFILE=$AWS_PROFILE_CHOICE

if B2 chose a non-default profile.)

Parse the JSON output. On failure the TOP LEVEL carries

reason

detail

(lifted from the first failing model) plus

failing_models

(all failing ids); per-model verdicts are in

models[]

```
ok == false
```
+
```
reason: credentials
```
→ show the detail (configure/refresh credentials), stop; user re-runs after fixing.
```
ok == false
```
+
```
reason: model_access
```
→ model access not enabled in the Bedrock console (NOT an IAM problem): point the user at the console Model access page for the failing models, stop; re-run B4 after they enable it.
```
ok == false
```
+
```
reason: authz
```
→ IAM denies inference. For a Converse/InvokeModel target the action to grant is
```
bedrock:InvokeModel
```
; for a mantle-only
```
openai.gpt-5*
```
target it is the
```
bedrock-mantle:*
```
set (see B4a). The
```
detail
```
names which. Tell the user the action to grant; stop.
```
ok == false
```
+
```
reason: mantle_deps_missing
```
→ the pinned scripts environment lacks
```
openai
```
/
```
aws-bedrock-token-generator
```
, so a mantle-only target could not be probed at all. This is an environment fault, not a Bedrock verdict: tell the user to re-sync (
```
uv sync --project $SCRIPTS
```
) and stop. Do NOT proceed — access was never verified.
```
ok == false
```

```
and follow its procedure with each ID from
```

```
+ region. AskUserQuestion with the candidates: "Use
```
<candidate>
```
(cross-region inference profile)" / "Paste a different model ID" / "Abort". On a choice, replace the ID in
```
$TARGET_MODELS
```
and re-run B4.
```
ok == false
```
+ any other
```
reason
```
→ show
```

```
and stop.
```
ok == true
```
→ proceed. Surface any
```
quota_warning
```
, and any model whose
```
reason
```
is
```
embedding_unprobed
```
(embedding family the preflight can't probe — remind the user to confirm model access in the console).

Phase C — Execute

Phase C dispatches the five plugin agents sequentially via the Agent tool (subagent types

aws-startup-advisor:llm2bedrock-code-analyzer

aws-startup-advisor:llm2bedrock-log-ingestor

aws-startup-advisor:llm2bedrock-prompt-evaluator

aws-startup-advisor:llm2bedrock-code-rewriter

aws-startup-advisor:llm2bedrock-report-generator

). Each agent writes its result to a file under

$PHASE_DIR = $REPO/.saws-migrate/phase-results/

; you validate every file with the bundled validator before moving on. There is no workflow runtime — the files ARE the state.

The validator (used at every step)

bash

uv run --project $SCRIPTS python $SCRIPTS/validate_result.py --schema <analysis|ingestion|eval|rewrite|delta-decisions> <file>

Exit 0 +
```
RESULT=valid CONTROL=ok
```
→ phase completed; proceed.
Exit 0 +
```
CONTROL=blocked REASON=<r>
```
→ blocked flow (below).
Exit 0 +
```
CONTROL=partial COMPLETED=<n> TOTAL=<m>
```
→ partial flow (eval only).
Exit 1 (
```
RESULT=invalid
```
+ error lines) or exit 2 (file missing) → stateless fixer retry: dispatch a FRESH agent of the same type whose prompt is the original context block + the file path + the validator's verbatim error output + the instruction "fix ONLY the output file at
```
<path>
```
so it validates; do not redo the phase's work unless a required field is genuinely missing from it". Cap 2 retries per phase; then stop and show the errors.

The context block (instantiated at every dispatch)

Build this exact line format (agents parse the labels). Omit lines marked optional when empty:

Repository: <$REPO>

Helper references (the former helper skills, now under
$HELPERS
). Agents no longer load skills by name; instead the agent Reads a helper reference at an absolute path you inject. For each dispatch, add ONLY the helper lines that agent uses (per its

# 4

section):

Agent (dispatch)	Helper-reference lines to add
C1 llm2bedrock-code-analyzer	`behavior-delta-detection reference: $HELPERS/behavior-delta-detection/behavior-delta-detection.md` ; `resolve-bedrock-model-id reference: $HELPERS/resolve-bedrock-model-id/resolve-bedrock-model-id.md`

C2 llm2bedrock-log-ingestor, C6 llm2bedrock-report-generator	(none — these agents load no helpers)

Expand

$HELPERS

to its absolute path (you have

<SKILL_BASE>

) so the subagent — where

${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}

is empty — receives a resolvable absolute path.

C0 — Run-context gate (resume safety)

The Eval phase makes one paid Bedrock call per golden case (and, with a source key, one paid source-provider call per case). Before any dispatch, tell the user evaluation will invoke Bedrock at their expense, capped at 200 cases.

values into current-context verbatim, continue to step 3. Check 2 fails (tip moved) → STOP and AskUserQuestion: "Keep your commits (regenerate report only, with a mixed-authorship note)" / "Reset the branch to the rewriter's tip and regenerate from C6" / "Abort". Check 3 fails (dirty tree) → STOP and ask: commit/stash (then re-check) or discard the edits. Check 1 fails → treat as a full
```

mismatch in step 3.
If
```

exists, compare:

bash

uv run --project $SCRIPTS python $SCRIPTS/validate_result.py --check-run-context $PHASE_DIR/run-context.json --current $PHASE_DIR/current-context.json

```
RUN_CONTEXT=match
```
→ resume: walk C1→C2→C3→(C4: delta-decisions.json)→C5→(C6: report file) in order; a phase counts completed iff its file validates with
```
CONTROL=ok
```
(C6: iff
```
MIGRATION_REPORT_<saved suffix>.md
```
exists while rewrite.json is payload-valid). STOP the walk at the first missing/invalid/control-state file — blocked/partial files route to their flows below, NEVER count as completed. Offer the user "skip completed phases X..Y, resume at Z". Files after an unexplained gap: archive them with the gap.
```
RUN_CONTEXT=mismatch
```
→ scoped invalidation. Map each MISMATCH line through this table, archive the named units to
```
$REPO/.saws-migrate/phase-results-archive/<saved suffix>-$(date +%H%M%S)/
```
(a SIBLING of phase-results/ — never nest it inside), then immediately overwrite run-context.json with current-context.json (carrying forward the saved
```
report_date_suffix
```
unless REPORT itself is being invalidated), then re-run the invalidated phases in order. Tell the user which fields differed and what re-runs.

MIGRATION_REPORT_<saved suffix>.md

Post-C5 reruns of C1–C3 need the pre-migration tree. If rewrite.json was payload-valid and the table invalidates ANALYSIS/INGESTION/EVAL: confirm with the user that the old migration branch will be discarded (keep-or-reset flow first if the tip moved), then

git checkout <saved repo_branch>

, delete the old branch and the

saws-migrate-baseline

tag, and re-run from C1. If the user declines, stop — re-analyzing a tree that contains the rewrite produces garbage.

No saved run-context → fresh run: write current-context.json as run-context.json, dispatch C1.

C1 — Analyzer · C2 — Ingestor · C3 — Evaluator

For each phase in order, dispatch the agent with the context block (listing all prior-phase file paths), then validate its output file:

Step agentType Output file Schema

Step	agentType	Output file	Schema

Blocked flow (

CONTROL=blocked

): resolve with the user per REASON —

```
model_access
```
→ user enables the model in the Bedrock console (nothing fingerprinted changes; re-dispatch the blocked phase only)
```
model_unresolvable
```
→ user picks/pastes an ID → record it in
```
resolved_model_overrides
```
, fold it into the Target line
```
source_key_auth
```
→ user supplies a new key (re-run B3) or sets baseline unavailable
```
authz
```
→ IAM denies inference. The
```
detail
```
names the action set to grant:
```
bedrock:InvokeModel*
```
for a Converse target, or the
```
bedrock-mantle:*
```
actions (
```
CreateInference
```
,
```
CallWithBearerToken
```
) for a mantle-only
```
openai.gpt-5*
```
target. User fixes IAM; nothing fingerprinted changes, so re-dispatch the blocked phase only. Do NOT route this to
```
model_access
```
— the console Model access page is the wrong fix for an IAM denial and vice versa.
```
mantle_deps_missing
```
→ the pinned scripts environment lacks
```
openai
```
/
```
aws-bedrock-token-generator
```
, so a mantle target could not be probed at all. User re-syncs (
```
uv sync --project $SCRIPTS
```
); re-dispatch the blocked phase only. Access was never verified, so do not treat a previous pass as still valid.
```
assess_output_missing
```
→ re-run Phase A, then restart Phase C at C0

After ANY resolution, re-run the C0 recipe (rebuild current-context, apply the invalidation table, overwrite run-context) and re-dispatch from the earliest invalidated phase — the table, not the block location, decides where execution resumes.

Partial flow (eval only,

CONTROL=partial

): AskUserQuestion —

Continue remaining cases → re-dispatch the evaluator with the extra context line:

Resume: raw_results.jsonl already contains completed cases — evaluate only prompts whose ids are not present in it, then re-score and overwrite eval.json

Proceed with partial pass rate → re-dispatch the evaluator with:

Finalize partial: do NOT call Bedrock again — score the cases already in raw_results.jsonl and emit the FULL eval payload over only those cases, with total_cases = the number scored and a notes prefix line 'partial_coverage: <completed>/<total> cases (throttled)'

. Then C4 runs normally.

Abort → stop; the files stay on disk for a later C0 resume.

C4 — Sidebar (two gates) + persist decisions

Gate (a) — Quality go/no-go. Read

$PHASE_DIR/eval.json

. The threshold is pass rate >= 0.9 AND
source_baseline_quality != 'poor'
(with

no_golden_cases: true

in the notes there is no quality signal — always ask). At or above → proceed silently. Below, AskUserQuestion:

Proceed anyway → gate (b)
Change target model → record in
```
resolved_model_overrides
```
, re-run C0 (the table invalidates ANALYSIS/EVAL and execution resumes at C1). Cap: 2 retries.
Abort → stop, no code touched.

Gate (a.5) — Rewrite strategy (from migration plan). Read

migration_path

from

$MIGRATION_DIR/aws-design-ai.json

→

ai_architecture.code_migration.migration_path

. If the value starts with

"mantle"

(

"mantle"

"mantle_openai_responses"

), set

rewrite_strategy = "mantle"

. Otherwise (value is

"converse"

"gpt-oss"

, or the field is absent), set

rewrite_strategy = "converse"

. No user question needed — the decision was already made during the Assess/Design phase.

Match on the prefix, not on equality: Design writes the more specific

"mantle_openai_responses"

for a same-model OpenAI migration, and an equality check against

"mantle"

would silently route those runs down the Converse path — rewriting working same-model code into a boto3 Converse client against a model that has no Converse surface.

Gate (b) — Behavior-delta resolution. For each

analysis.behavior_deltas[]

with

user_visible == true

, AskUserQuestion with the options from the

behavior-delta-detection

reference (Read

$HELPERS/behavior-delta-detection/behavior-delta-detection.md

, and the

source_provider

sub-reference under its

references/

dir).

Persist: write the decisions array (entries

{delta_type, location, resolution_chosen, source}

;

[]

when there were no user-visible deltas) to

$PHASE_DIR/delta-decisions.json

and validate it (

--schema delta-decisions

). The file must exist before C5 — it is what makes a C5 retry or a post-crash resume self-sufficient.

C5 — Rewriter · C6 — Report

Step	agentType	Output	Schema
C5	`aws-startup-advisor:llm2bedrock-code-rewriter`	`$PHASE_DIR/rewrite.json`	rewrite
C6	`aws-startup-advisor:llm2bedrock-report-generator`	`MIGRATION_REPORT_<saved suffix>.md` in repo root	(none — file existence is the completion check)

C5's context block includes the

Confirmed behavior-delta decisions file

line and the

Report date suffix

line (from run-context, NOT today's date on a resume). C6's context block lists all four phase-result file paths.

When

rewrite_strategy == "mantle"

, C5's context block ALSO includes:

```
Rewrite strategy: mantle
```
(omit this line entirely for Converse — its absence is the signal for the default Converse path)

Mantle model map: <source-model> -> <bedrock-model-id>

— sourced from the plan's

ai_architecture.bedrock_models[]

entries (each

source_model

→

aws_model_id

pair).

```
Mantle surface: responses
```
and
```
Mantle base path: /openai/v1
```
when any mapped
```
aws_model_id
```
is a proprietary GPT model (
```
openai.gpt-5*
```
). These are served only on the
```
/openai/v1
```
path via the Responses API — distinct from the
```
v1
```
path other mantle models use — so the rewriter must not emit a
```
/v1
```
base URL or a Chat Completions call for them. See
```
$GCP_BASE/references/shared/openai-on-bedrock.md
```
.
```
Same model: true
```
when
```
bedrock_models[].model_change
```
is
```
false
```
. Signals the rewriter to keep model parameters untouched and limit changes to the endpoint, credential, model id, and (if the source used Chat Completions) the surface reshape.

C7 — Render summary

bash

uv run --project $SCRIPTS python $SCRIPTS/render_report.py --phase-results $PHASE_DIR --repo $REPO --date-suffix <saved suffix>

Print the summary. Point the user at

rewrite.branch_name

(usually

bedrock-migration

, but a collision-suffixed variant like

bedrock-migration-2

when they already had that branch) and the report file. Tell them how to undo — substitute the ACTUAL branch name from

rewrite.branch_name

, never a hardcoded one (on a collision run,

bedrock-migration

is the user's own pre-existing branch and deleting it would destroy their work):

To discard:
git checkout <your original branch>
,
git branch -D <rewrite.branch_name>
,
git tag -d saws-migrate-baseline
, and
rm -rf .saws-migrate .migration
removes all migration artifacts (including the API key file).

Access-only mode

Entered from Step 0a-bis when the user wants Bedrock model access checked/enabled for a named set of models, not a code migration. It reuses the identity check (B2) and the preflight (B4) but takes its model list from the user, and it never touches

gcp-to-aws

, Assess, the source key (B3), or Phase C. It answers "which models do I need to turn on, and how" — then stops. No git branch, no rewrite.

AC1 — Set expectations (accuracy — say this first)

Tell the user, before collecting models:

"A few things about 'model access' on Bedrock:
Claude, Llama, Nova, Mistral, etc. are Bedrock foundation models on the
bedrock-runtime
endpoint — inference uses
bedrock:InvokeModel
/
Converse
. In commercial Regions, access is on by default once the caller has the AWS Marketplace permissions (
aws-marketplace:Subscribe
/
Unsubscribe
/
ViewSubscriptions
) — the model auto-subscribes on first invoke. The console Model access page is the explicit enable/catalog step (and the required flow in GovCloud). Anthropic models also need a one-time First-Time-Use form (
PutUseCaseForModelAccess
) per account before invoke — except when reached via
bedrock-mantle
.
OpenAI on Bedrock comes in a few forms, all real — and which endpoint they use is per-ID, not one blanket rule:
Open-weight
gpt-oss
(
openai.gpt-oss-20b-1:0
,
openai.gpt-oss-120b-1:0
) →
bedrock-runtime
via
bedrock:InvokeModel
/
Converse
(its Responses API is also offered on
bedrock-mantle
).
Bare proprietary GPT ids (
openai.gpt-5*
, not
gpt-oss
) → probed on the
bedrock-mantle
endpoint (Responses API).
A GPT-5.6 CRIS profile id prefixed
us.
/
in.
/
global.
(e.g.
global.openai.gpt-5.6-sol
) → a
bedrock-runtime
target where Converse is supported.
The
bedrock-mantle
path uses a separate action set —
bedrock-mantle:*
(e.g. the
AmazonBedrockMantleInferenceAccess
managed policy:
bedrock-mantle:CreateInference
+
CallWithBearerToken
) — distinct from
bedrock:InvokeModel
. The preflight decides per model; don't assume.
What is not on Bedrock is calling OpenAI's own hosted API at api.openai.com — that stays with OpenAI. 'GPT on Bedrock' means the AWS-served models above, reached through AWS endpoints and IAM.
The preflight probes each model by the right API automatically and reports exactly which access to enable per model; I'll relay that."

AC2 — Collect requested models and region (do NOT resolve friendly names yet)

Models (raw request only): if
```
$ARGUMENTS
```
names model IDs, use them directly — skip resolution, they're already IDs. Otherwise AskUserQuestion: "Which models do you want access to? Give Bedrock model IDs (e.g.
```
anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-5-v1:0
```
,
```
openai.gpt-oss-120b-1:0
```
) or provider + name and I'll resolve the ID." Collect whatever the user gave (IDs and/or friendly names) into
```
$REQUESTED_MODELS
```
— do NOT invoke the friendly-name resolver here. The resolver's own commands (
```
aws bedrock list-foundation-models
```
/
```
list-inference-profiles
```
) require a
```
--region
```
and run under whatever AWS identity is active at call time — resolving before
```
$REGION
```
/AC3 are set means it can run against the wrong region or the default (not yet confirmed) profile and fail for reasons that have nothing to do with the model name.
Region: AskUserQuestion: "Which AWS region? (default
```
us-east-1
```
)" →
```
$REGION
```
.

AC3 — AWS identity confirmation

Run the B2 identity-confirmation step exactly as written (including the profile-choice handling and

$AWS_PROFILE_CHOICE

). Do not proceed without a confirmed identity.

AC3.5 — Resolve friendly names, now that region + identity are confirmed

For any entry in

$REQUESTED_MODELS

that is not already a Bedrock model ID, resolve it now (read

$HELPERS/resolve-bedrock-model-id/resolve-bedrock-model-id.md

and follow its procedure) — using

$REGION

from AC2 and, if AC3 chose a non-default profile, prefixing the resolver's own AWS CLI calls with

AWS_PROFILE=$AWS_PROFILE_CHOICE

(env vars do not persist across Bash calls; without the prefix the resolver queries the DEFAULT identity, not the one just confirmed). Confirm the resolved IDs back to the user. Collect the final IDs (already-ID entries plus newly-resolved ones) into

$TARGET_MODELS

If the user later changes
$REGION
or the AWS profile (e.g. after an AC4

authz

credentials

failure prompts a re-check): re-run this resolution step for any name-based entry before re-running AC4 — a model ID resolved against the old region/profile may not be the right ID (or may not exist) in the new one.

AC4 — Preflight the named models

Run the B4 preflight against

$TARGET_MODELS

and interpret its verdicts exactly as B4 does, with these mode-specific differences:

bash

uv run --project $SCRIPTS python $SCRIPTS/preflight_bedrock.py --region $REGION --models <comma-separated $TARGET_MODELS> --dataset-size 0

(

--dataset-size 0

— there is no golden dataset in this mode, so no quota-vs-dataset warning is meaningful; a plain quota note is still surfaced if present. Prepend
AWS_PROFILE=$AWS_PROFILE_CHOICE
inline if AC3/B2 chose a non-default profile — env vars do not persist across Bash calls, so without the prefix this probes the DEFAULT identity, not the one the user just confirmed, and a

credentials

authz

failure would be about the wrong account.)

Then, per B4's branch table:

```
reason: model_access
```
→ the model exists but access is not enabled for this account. Name the right prerequisite for the failing model(s):
- Commercial Regions: access is on by default once the caller has the AWS Marketplace permissions (
```
aws-marketplace:Subscribe
```
  /
```
Unsubscribe
```
  /
```
ViewSubscriptions
```
  ) — the model auto-subscribes on first invoke. If those permissions are missing, that is the fix.
- GovCloud, third-party models (most models — check first): GovCloud accounts are linked one-to-one with a commercial account, and per AWS's own docs, third-party model access must be enabled in both accounts — enabling it only in GovCloud leaves the account blocked. Two steps, in order:
  1. In the linked commercial account, in
    us-east-1
    or
    us-west-2
    (switch AWS identity/profile to that account first), invoke the model once (or enable it via the SDK/CLI as in the commercial-Regions bullet above) — this is the same auto-enable mechanism, just run against the commercial account rather than GovCloud. Note: entitlement can take a few minutes to propagate to the linked GovCloud account after this step.
  2. Switch back to the GovCloud identity, then use the console Model access page — always in us-gov-west-1
    specifically (not the inference region — GovCloud's Model access console page only exists in that one region, regardless of what
    $REGION
    the user is trying to invoke the model from). Confirm which identity/profile is active before each step; a mismatch here (acting in the wrong account) looks like the enablement "didn't work."
- GovCloud, Amazon-provided models: only the GovCloud-account step above is needed — no linked commercial-account step, since Amazon models aren't third-party AWS Marketplace listings.
- Anthropic models additionally need the one-time First-Time-Use form (
```
PutUseCaseForModelAccess
```
  ) per account before invoke — except when reached via
```
bedrock-mantle
```
  . Point the user at the failing model(s) + the applicable prerequisite, and offer to re-run AC4 after they enable it. This is the common, expected outcome for a user who came here to "get access."
```
reason: authz
```
→ access is enabled but IAM denies inference. Name the action to grant — for a standard model
```
bedrock:InvokeModel
```
; for a mantle-only
```
openai.gpt-5*
```
target (bare proprietary GPT, not
```
gpt-oss
```
) the
```
bedrock-mantle:*
```
set (see B4a). The
```
detail
```
says which — follow it rather than guessing from the ID, since gpt-oss fails on
```
bedrock:InvokeModel
```
, not mantle.
```
reason: model_unavailable
```
→ the ID isn't offered in
```
$REGION
```
. Use the
```
resolve-bedrock-model-id
```
procedure to suggest a cross-region inference-profile ID or a correct ID, re-confirm, and re-run AC4.
```
reason: credentials
```
/
```
mantle_deps_missing
```
/ other → surface
```
detail
```
and follow B4's rule (fix and re-run; do not claim access is verified when it isn't).
```
ok == true
```
+
```
reason: embedding_unprobed
```
→ the model is from an unrecognized embedding family, so the preflight could NOT actually invoke it (see
```
probe_model()
```
in
```
preflight_bedrock.py
```
) — this is
```
ok: true
```
at the JSON level but zero requests were sent, so nothing about actual access was observed either way. Do not report this as "enabled" in any form, verified or not — "enabled" asserts a fact this probe never checked. Tell the user access is unverified for this model (not "enabled — unverified"): ask them to confirm in the Bedrock console or with a manual test invoke before relying on it.
```
ok == true
```
+
```
reason: throttled_ok
```
→ the probe reached the service and was throttled (
```
ThrottlingException
```
/
```
ServiceQuotaExceededException
```
/a 429 on mantle) — this proves the request was authorized, but it is not the same claim as "an invoke succeeded": no response was produced, so nothing about the model's actual behavior was observed. Tell the user access is confirmed authorized, but the probe itself was throttled — a quota concern to note, not a reason to distrust the access verdict.
```
ok == true
```
(any other
```
reason
```
, i.e. an actual invoke or InvokeModel call returned a real response) → tell the user access is confirmed working in
```
$REGION
```
for that ID.

AC5 — Summarize and stop

Give the user a per-model summary:

<model_id>

→

enabled & working

(a real invoke succeeded) /

access unverified — no request made

(

embedding_unprobed

; recommend a manual console/test check) /

authorized (probe throttled)

(

throttled_ok

; access is confirmed, but no response was observed) /

enable access

(naming the applicable prerequisite from the

model_access

branch — Marketplace permissions in commercial Regions; for GovCloud, the linked-commercial-account step (third-party models) plus the

us-gov-west-1

console Model access page; plus the Anthropic FTU form where it applies) /

grant <action>

not available in <region>, use <candidate>

. Do NOT collapse

embedding_unprobed

throttled_ok

into

enabled & working

— each means something distinct to the user (no request made / authorized-but-no-response / actually confirmed working), and even a genuinely successful invoke on a first-time third-party model is not a permanent guarantee either: AWS auto-enables access in the background on first invoke (up to ~15 minutes to finalize), and a missing prerequisite during that window can make a later call fail with

AccessDeniedException

even though an earlier call succeeded — mention this for any model reported as newly working for the first time in this account. Then run the Contextual offers (final step). Do not continue into Assess, rewrite, or any code change — this mode is complete.

Inline mode (platforms without an Agent/subagent dispatch tool)

<plugin>/agents/<name>.md
```
) — never load more than one phase's definition into context at once.
Follow it start-to-finish; write and validate the same phase-result file.
STOP. Report the phase outcome (validator CONTROL line + one-line summary) and ask the user to confirm before loading the next phase's definition. This sidebar is mandatory: it is the context-pressure release valve, and the phase-result file means nothing is lost if the user continues in a fresh session instead.

Warn the user up front that inline mode is slower and context-heavier than subagent dispatch, and that the rewriter phase performs git operations (branch, commits, worktree) directly in this session.

Failure handling

An agent dispatch dies (tool error, terminal failure) → the phase file is missing → validator exit 2 → the stateless fixer-retry path (which, finding no file to fix, re-runs the phase). Do not auto-retry more than the 2-retry cap.
User aborts at any gate → confirm no SOURCE CODE was modified (C5 never started if aborted before then). Note that
```
.migration/
```
and
```
.saws-migrate/
```
artifacts do exist; show the undo commands from C7 if the user wants them gone.
Assess skill fails → show the error and stop. User can re-run
```
/aws-startup-advisor:llm-to-bedrock
```
.

Contextual offers (final step)

Before you finish: your answer is not complete until you have run the Contextual offers (final step) below.

This is a mandatory closing step of every final recommendation — complete it before you consider your answer done. Run this offer check inline yourself; do not depend on loading another skill. The recommendation is decided on merit first; this step never changes, re-ranks, or re-opens it, and the offer is looked up only after the advice is final.

Read
```
../knowledge-base-for-startups/references/offers.md
```
— the offer index (Offer · Summary · Keywords), one row per offer.
Judge relevance against what the founder actually surfaced this session. Surface an offer only if one holds: a named-product match (you recommended a specific partner product by name and it has a row); a direct intent/component match (an offer's Keywords directly serve a concrete workload, a component in the final recommendation, or a need the founder raised). Keep a high bar — if the match is weak, or you would be inferring an unstated need, append nothing. In this migration, only surface an offer that is a credit on a product the migration already kept or selected (e.g. LangSmith credits when the rewrite keeps their LangChain code); otherwise append none — never an offer that competes with Amazon Bedrock or anything else the rewrite or the gcp-to-aws design selects (e.g. Fireworks AI or another model-inference provider vs Bedrock).
If (and only if) one offer clears the bar, open only its detail file
```
../knowledge-base-for-startups/references/offers/<slug>.md
```
and append exactly one quiet, dismissible italic line — stating the value and condensing eligibility faithfully from that file (drop no qualifying criterion; never fabricate), with the redeem link built from the canonical
```
source_url
```
plus a
```
source
```
attribution param — append
```
?source=ide-startupAdvisor-<host>
```
(or
```
&source=...
```
if the url already has a query string), filling
```
<host>
```
from your execution environment (Claude Code →
```
claude
```
; AWS Startup Advisor IDE extension / VS Code →
```
vscode
```
; Cursor →
```
cursor
```
; Kiro →
```
kiro
```
; Codex →
```
codex
```
), or the generic
```
ide-startupAdvisor
```
when you cannot tell. Only append the query param; never change the destination. Show one or none, never a list. If none clears the bar, append nothing and do not mention offers, partner alternatives, or why none appeared.

Standard line:

***<Offer>** has an exclusive offer via AWS Activate — <value>, <eligibility>. [Redeem →](<source_url>?source=ide-startupAdvisor-<host>)*

Caps and control: at most one offer per response and often none; no more than one per five messages and two per session; show a given offer at most once per session and never one already shown, claimed, or dismissed; if the founder has muted offers, skip this step entirely. These per-five-messages, per-session, and already-shown caps are session-state limits; in a fresh session with no prior offers they are non-binding, so do not withhold an otherwise-qualifying offer merely because you cannot verify session history. See

../contextual-offers-for-startups/SKILL.md

for the full rules — but perform the check inline; it must not depend on that skill being loaded.

Migrate to Bedrock (Assess + Execute)

Step 0 — Check prerequisites

0a. Check that
`uv`
is available

0a-bis. Route: full migration vs. access-only

0b. Check that the gcp-to-aws sibling skill is installed

Step 1 — Collect source code path

Phase A — Assess (runs gcp-to-aws's own AI-path files, inline)

A1 — Run Discover, Clarify, Design, and Estimate

A2 — Confirm Assess is complete

A3 — Locate Assess output

Phase B — Execute Prep

B1 — Read Assess outputs

B2 — AWS identity confirmation

B3 — Source API key (optional)

B4 — Bedrock preflight

Phase C — Execute

The validator (used at every step)

The context block (instantiated at every dispatch)

C0 — Run-context gate (resume safety)

C1 — Analyzer · C2 — Ingestor · C3 — Evaluator

C4 — Sidebar (two gates) + persist decisions

C5 — Rewriter · C6 — Report

C7 — Render summary

Access-only mode

AC1 — Set expectations (accuracy — say this first)

AC2 — Collect requested models and region (do NOT resolve friendly names yet)

AC3 — AWS identity confirmation

AC3.5 — Resolve friendly names, now that region + identity are confirmed

AC4 — Preflight the named models

AC5 — Summarize and stop

Inline mode (platforms without an Agent/subagent dispatch tool)
