# Agent Toolkit for AWS components
<a name="components"></a>

The Agent Toolkit for AWS includes four components that work together to help AI coding agents build, deploy, and manage applications on AWS.
+ **[AWS MCP Server](mcp-server.md)** — A managed server that gives agents access to AWS through the Model Context Protocol.
+ **[Skills](skills.md)** — Curated packages of instructions and reference materials that help agents complete specific AWS tasks.
+ **[Plugins](plugins.md)** — Single-install packages that bundle the AWS MCP Server configuration and agent skills.
+ **[Rules files](rules-files.md)** — Project-level configuration files that tell agents how to use AWS most effectively.
