EC2 Topology Diagram

Build a scoped architecture diagram from live EC2 instance, IP, AMI, and security-group metadata.

Required Aident Actions

• <action-tag>cli:aws:ec2_describe_instances</action-tag> (required inputs: inspect the current schema): Describe up to 25 EC2 instances in the configured region. Surfaces infrastructure topology (IPs, security groups, AMI IDs); treat as sensitive.

Use Aident Loadout to read the current Action schema before constructing inputs. Check the required integration connection in Aident Vault. If an Action is billable or mutating, run Aident preflight, show the affected target and quoted cost or risk, and wait for explicit user confirmation before execution.

Workflow

1. Confirm the requested outcome, source material, destination, audience, constraints, and acceptance criteria.
2. Apply the source-derived guidanAction · Ec2 Describe Instancesefore invoking an Action.
3. Select only the Aident Actions whose documented effect directly advances the requested outcome. Do not invoke every listed Action by default.
4. Inspect the current schema and prepare the minimum valid input for each selected Action.
5. Preflight each selected Action. Execute it only after any required confirmation, in dependency order, and carry returned IDs or asset URLs into later steps.
6. Verify the returned IDs, URLs, statuses, or artifacts against the acceptance criteria. Report partial completion precisely and do not repeat paid or mutating calls blindly.

Source-Derived Guidance

• State that the diagram covers EC2-visible topology only, not every AWS resource.
• Group instances by network and security metadata and label all inferred relationships.

Execution Boundaries

• Treat upstream provider-specific commands as background knowledge only. Execute the workflow through the exact Aident Actions above.
• Never request raw credentials in chat. Use Aident Vault connection flows for required accounts.
• Preserve user-provided wording, brand constraints, rights restrictions, and target identifiers. Do not invent authorization.
• Read current state before a mutation, state the exact target, and include a rollback or recovery step in the result.
• Stop when a required integration is disconnected, preflight rejects the input, the target is ambiguous, or the user declines a required confirmation.

Output

Return the execution plan, selected Action names, confirmed targets, Aident result identifiers or asset URLs, verification evidence, and any remaining blocked step.
