AWS Lambda console provides a one-click setup prompt for coding agents - devamazonaws.blogspot.com

AWS Lambda console now provides a one-click setup prompt for coding agents that configures your agent with AWS Serverless skills and the Serverless Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, embedding serverless best practices from the start. This setup is available on the Lambda console wherever the developers start their Lambda journey: whether they are getting started with Lambda, exploring its capabilities, or have created their first function.

Developers use coding agents to build, test, and deploy Lambda functions, but setting up an agent for serverless development previously required navigating across multiple documentation pages to find the right configuration. The one-click setup prompt eliminates this friction as it provides a prompt that instructs the agent to install AWS Serverless skills (hosted in Agent Toolkit for AWS) and the Serverless MCP server directly in the developer's preferred coding agent. The prompt references the Lambda agent setup guide, which includes installation commands for Claude Code, Kiro, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Codex, Devin Desktop, and OpenCode, for the AWS Serverless skills, three specialized Lambda skills (MicroVM, Managed Instances, durable functions), and Serverless MCP server configuration. If a developer does not have local AWS authentication configured, the prompt guides them to connect using the signing-in-to-aws skill.

This capability is available in all commercial AWS Regions (except Middle East (Bahrain) and Middle East (UAE)) and AWS GovCloud (US) Regions where Lambda is available. Get started by visiting the AWS Lambda console or learn more in the Lambda agent setup guide.

[MS] Pulling a single item from a C++ parameter pack by its index, remarks - devamazonaws.blogspot.com

In my earlier discussion of pulling a single item from a C++ parameter pack by its index , I noted that with the Pack Indexing proposal, you would be able to write this to pull an item from a parameter pack while preserving its reference category. template<int index, typename...Args> void example(Args&&... args) { auto&& arg = (Args...[index]&&)args...[index]; using Arg = Args...[index]&&; } Why did I need to apply the (Args...[index]&&) cast ? Why can't I just write this: auto&& arg = args...[index]; or possibly decltype(auto) arg = args...[index]; Well, when you write the name of a variable, the result is an lvalue reference, even if the variable is an rvalue reference . Watch: struct S { S(S&); // construct from lvalue S(S&&); // construct from rvalue }; void whathappens(S&& s) { S t = s; // which will it use? } Try it out in your favorite compiler. This code construc...

Debjyoti Ganguly shares insights on the security benefits and configuration of GHAS Code Scanning with Azure DevOps. Boosting Azure DevOps Security with GHAS Code Scanning Code scanning, a pipeline-based tool available in GitHub Advanced Security, is designed to detect code vulnerabilities and bugs within the source code of ADO (Azure DevOps) repositories. Utilizing CodeQL as a static analysis tool, it performs query analysis and variant analysis. When vulnerabilities are found, it generates security alerts. CodeQL CodeQL is a powerful static analysis tool used for showing vulnerabilities and bugs in source code. It enables developers to write custom queries that analyze codebases, searching for specific patterns and potential security issues. By converting code into a database format, CodeQL allows for sophisticated, database-like queries to detect flaws. CodeQL in Action 1. Preparing the Code Create a CodeQL Database : Extract and structure the code into a database for analy...
