Eight tools: AWS API calls through sandboxed Python, pre-signed S3 URLs, task polling, documentation search and read, agent skills, and region data. The vendor documents two authentication methods, OAuth or SigV4, and says documentation search and skill discovery no longer need credentials; measured keyless, initialize, tools/list and two tool calls answered 200, and the advertised tool list is the full eight.",
