The serverless feature allows AI agents like Claude Code and Kiro to access extensive diagnostics of Lambda functions, correlating error patterns over a seven-day baseline and retrieving configuration and recent changes across connected resources.

This integration centralizes insightful data in a single call, reducing token consumption and helping developers efficiently detect issues spanning API Gateway, EventBridge, S3, DynamoDB, SNS, SQS, and Step Functions, with no additional service cost, available in major AWS Regions.
