Fetch full AWS doc pages as markdown. `search_documentation` already returns verbatim page chunks, so don't re-read a URL whose chunk you already have to "confirm" or "round out" an answer -- the chunk is the real page text; treat it as authoritative. Reading the full page is justified ONLY when the chunks genuinely lack the content: - an enumeration or aggregation ("list all X", "how many X") needs the complete set and the chunks show only part of it; - no search result is on-topic after refining the query, and a known doc URL would have the answer. Otherwise, answer from the chunks. Use exact URLs from `search_documentation`; don't guess slugs. Input: `requests: [{url, max_length?, start_index?}]`. Batch 2-5. - `max_length` default 10000. - `start_index` default 0; use prior `end_index` to continue, TOC offset to jump.

AWS docs search. Each result's `context` is verbatim page text -- a real chunk of the actual page, not a short snippet -- and usually already contains the answer, so answer directly from it. Use `read_documentation` only when the chunks genuinely lack the needed detail. Pick ONE topic. Add a 2nd ONLY if query genuinely spans domains. Extra topics dilute ranking. - reference_documentation -- API/SDK/CLI specs, config params - current_awareness -- new/released/announced - troubleshooting -- errors, "how to fix" (NOT for conceptual/feature questions) - amplify_docs -- Amplify (+ language) - cdk_docs -- CDK concepts/guides - cdk_constructs -- CDK code samples, L3 - cloudformation -- CFN/SAM templates - strands_docs -- Strands Agents SDK (its Skills/agents concepts go here, NOT agent_skills) - agent_skills -- this tool's guided skills (load via `retrieve_skill`) - general (default) -- architecture, best practices, tutorials, feature behavior Results: rank_order (lower=better), url, title, context (verbatim page chunk -- answer directly from it).

AWS resource availability per region. - Max 10 regions; multi-region needs `filters`; single-region supports `next_token`. - Status: isAvailableIn | isNotAvailableIn | isPlannedIn | Not Found. - Response key: products | service_apis | cfn_resources. Not for region counts/docs/vague queries -- use `search_documentation` / `list_regions`. Filter values must EXACTLY match AWS's catalog names; guessed, partial, or pluralized names are rejected ("values in filter parameter do not exist"). If unsure of the exact name, first call once for a single region with resource_type set and NO filters to list all valid names, then re-call filtering on the exact match.

Input schema

Parameter	Type	Description & constraints
regions	array<string>	AWS region codes (max 10). Multi-region requires `filters`; single-region supports `next_token`.
resource_type*	string	Required: 'product' \| 'api' \| 'cfn'.
filters	array<string>	Use exact AWS product or sub-feature name. - product: 'Amazon Bedrock' (service), or sub-features like 'Comprehend Auto Scaling', 'Latency-Based Routing', 'PrivateLink Support'. When the user names a specific sub-feature, filter on the sub-feature -- do NOT generalize to the parent service ('Amazon Comprehend'); that returns availability for the wrong scope. - api: 'SdkServiceId+Operation' (e.g. 'CloudFormation+CreateStack', 'IAM+GetSSHPublicKey') or 'SdkServiceId' (e.g. 'EC2'). Use a literal '+' between service and operation -- not space, colon, or hyphen. - cfn: 'AWS::EC2::Instance', 'AWS::Lambda::Function'. Include every region the user named; don't add filters they didn't request. Values must EXACTLY match AWS's catalog (e.g. 'AWS Lambda', not 'Lambda' or 'AWS Lambda Service'). If unsure of the exact name, first call once for one region with NO filters to list valid names, then filter on the exact match.
next_token	string	Pagination token. Single-region, no filters only.
region	string	Unused; use `regions`.

Computed centrally from the normalized capability inventory (normalizer v1). Scanners submit raw observations; the control plane normalizes and hashes, so every scanner agrees on the same value.

No drift observed — every successful observation since Aug 6, 2026 has matched the baseline hash. Boring, in the best way.

Full snapshots are stored only when the canonical hash changes — unchanged observations update freshness without duplicating the contract.
