Engineers increasingly use coding assistance tools to accelerate their development workflows. Today, Amazon SageMaker AI optimized generative AI inference introduces the aws-ai-ml skill, available through the Agent Toolkit for AWS. This skill gives coding agents like Kiro, Claude Code, and Codex deep expertise in inference optimization and benchmarking. Install the skill, and your existing agent can benchmark endpoints, recommend deployment configurations, compare performance runs, and generate executable SageMaker Python SDK v3 code on your behalf. The aws-ai-ml skill is a toolkit that plugs into any coding agent that supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP), turning it into a SageMaker AI inference optimization expert.
In this post, we walk through what the skill enables, how to set it up, and how it helps you move faster from model to production.
The challenge: Bridging intent and infrastructure
