Previously requiring multiple documentation steps, the new setup prompt integrates AWS Serverless skills and the Serverless Model Context Protocol (MCP) directly into users' preferred coding agents. This assists developers in building, testing, and deploying Lambda functions with recommended configurations from the start.
