* **Skills for AI coding assistants (optional).** AWS publishes reusable skills for Amazon Kinesis Streams. To see which apply, search the Agent Toolkit for AWS catalog with `aws agent-toolkit search-skills --search-query streams` — a documented, read-only AWS CLI command that searches the catalog and makes no changes.
