Use this skill when a name is not resolving as expected inside a VPC, or before applying a DNS control-plane change. Activate on symptoms such as NXDOMAIN or SERVFAIL from an EC2 instance, a hostname resolving to a public address when a private endpoint was expected, an AWS service endpoint that stopped resolving after a VPC endpoint or Route 53 change, an application reaching the wrong IP, resolution that works from one instance but not another, IPv6 or dualstack resolution differences, a suspected on-premises forwarding or hybrid DNS problem, or a request to check whether enabling private DNS, adding a Resolver rule, associating a private hosted zone, attaching DNS Firewall, or associating a Route 53 Profile would break anything. It drives the aws-vpc-dns-diagnostics MCP server to observe live resolution from inside the subnet and to simulate a proposed change before it is applied.
Source documentation, not instructions for this website. Review permissions before running any commands.
Use the tools on the connected aws-vpc-dns-diagnostics MCP server.
Before calling any tool, determine which mode applies:
If the request is ambiguous, ask the operator to clarify. Do not default to Mode A when the input lacks an instance ID, and do not default to Mode B when the operator describes a live symptom.
Regardless of mode, call get_sop with slug A-critical-safety-rules and
follow every rule it contains. These are non-negotiable constraints on how you
interpret results, handle opaque constructs, and report findings.

dns_probe_context — establishes VPC-attribute preconditions: enableDnsSupport,
enableDnsHostnames, address family, DHCP option set. A resolution result means
nothing until you know whether the VPC resolver is answering.dns_probe_compare — runs the allowlisted probe set inside the instance via
SSM. Returns each resolver's answer and the resolver's own identity from
hostname.bind. The VPC DHCP resolver is auto-added for comparison.get_sop — load the pattern runbook matching the observed signature

They provide an instance ID (or you can identify one). The goal is to observe what actually resolves and compare resolvers. - **Mode B (pre-change validation):** The operator asks whether a proposed DNS change is safe. They provide account, region, VPC, and a change descriptor. No instance is required. If the request is ambiguous, ask the operator to clarify. Do not default to Mode A when the input lacks an instance ID, and do not default to Mode B when the operator describes a live symptom. ## Step 2: Load safety rules Regardless of mode, call `get_sop` with slug `A-critical-safety-rules` and follow every rule it contains. These are non-negotiable constraints on how you interpret results, handle opaque constructs, and report findings. --- ## Mode A route: live diagnosis ### Required inputs account_id, region, instance_id, and the failing DNS name. ### Tool sequence (in order) 1. `dns_probe_context` — establishes VPC-attribute preconditions: enableDnsSupport, enableDnsHostnames, address family, DHCP option set. A resolution result means nothing until you know whether the VPC resolver is answering. 2. `dns_probe_compare` — runs the allowlisted probe set inside the instance via SSM. Returns each resolver's answer and the resolver's own identity from `hostname.bind`. The VPC DHCP resolver is auto-added for comparison. 3. `get_sop` — load the pattern runbook matching the observed signature (see trap-to-SOP mapping below). ### Interpretation rules - If `enableDnsSupport` is false: load `A-resolver-disabled-precondition`. The VPC resolver is intentionally dark and every probe failure follows from that. - Compare the instance's `/etc/resolv.conf` (from the probe output) against the DHCP option set. A mismatch means the instance is not using the VPC-intended resolver. - Judge answers by name category (load `A-name-category-classification`), not by whether resolvers agree. Two resolvers returning the same wrong answer is still a failure. ### Mode A trap-to-SOP mapping | Observed signature | SOP slug | | --- | --- | | Custom resolver answers differently from VPC .2 | `A-custom-resolver-divergence` | | FORWARD rule and PHZ both match the name | `A-forward-vs-phz-precedence-collision` | | A record works, AAAA fails (or vice versa) | `A-address-family-divergence` | | enableDnsSupport is false | `A-resolver-disabled-precondition` | | General live comparison procedure | `A-mode-a-live-resolver-comparison` | ### Reporting format for Mode A Label every finding as **Observed** (ground truth from the probe). State which resolver answered and what it returned. When Mode A and Mode B produce different conclusions for the same name, **Mode A wins** because it is ground truth from inside the subnet. --- ## Mode B route: pre-change validation ### Required inputs account_id, region, vpc_id, and a change descriptor (structured dict with `type` and type-specific fields). No instance required. ### Tool sequence (in order) 1. `dns_simulate_effective_config` — returns the VPC's effective DNS config: the union of directly attached resources and anything inherited through an associated Route 53 Profile, each construct tagged by source. 2. `dns_simulate_change` — applies the proposed change symbolically and returns a per-name impact report (before/after, delta, traps, severity, volume). 3. `get_sop` — load runbooks for any traps reported in the impact table (see trap-to-SOP mapping below). ### Interpretation rules - Never recommend applying a change without simulating it first. A broad FORWARD rule, enabling private DNS on an interface endpoint, or a Profile association can silently redirect names that currently resolve correctly. - The candidate set is limited to API-derived names (PHZ records, rule domains, VPCE apexes, Firewall domain lists) or operator-supplied names. It is not exhaustive. State the coverage boundary. - If the operator supplies `volumes` (from Resolver Query Logs), names are ranked by traffic. This is enrichment; absence does not invalidate the simulation. ### Mode B trap-to-SOP mapping | Trap label in impact report | SOP slug | | --- | --- | | VPCE-shadow-NXDOMAIN | `B-vpce-shadow-nxdomain` | | broad-FORWARD-sweep | `B-broad-forward-sweep` | | flag-AND-mismatch | `B-flag-and-mismatch` | | DNS-Firewall-block | `B-dns-firewall-block` | | profile-union-shift | `B-profile-propagation-timing` | | General pre-change procedure | `B-mode-b-pre-change-validation` | ### Reporting format for Mode B Label every finding as **Predicted** (symbolic, not ground truth). State the candidate-set size, its source (API-derived or operator-supplied), and that names outside this set were not evaluated. Include the propagation timing caveat for Profile changes. --- ## Cross-account opacity Call `get_sop` with slug `C-cross-account-opaque-constructs` when the effective config or impact report contains opaque markers. Cross-account constructs shared via RAM or a Route 53 Profile may be enumerable but their contents are not readable from the consumer account. Report them as "present but unknown content" rather than treating them as absent or inferring past them. ## Limitations Call `get_sop` with slug `C-limitations-and-boundaries` and state the relevant boundaries to the operator. Key constraints: - All tools are read-only. Do not modify, delete, or create DNS resources. - Mode A requires SSM reachability (ssm, ssmmessages, ec2messages VPC endpoints and an instance role with AmazonSSMManagedInstanceCore). - Mode B candidate sets are not exhaustive. The "no impacts" conclusion applies only within the tested set. - Opaque constructs cannot be resolved from this account. - Resolver Query Log ingestion is not implemented; volumes must be supplied by the operator. ## Final response requirements Every response produced by this skill must include: 1. Each finding labelled **Observed** (Mode A) or **Predicted** (Mode B). 2. When both modes were used, state "Mode A wins" for any conflict. 3. The candidate-set coverage: how many names, what source, what was not tested. 4. Any opaque constructs and their impact on the conclusion. 5. Recommended next steps or the specific change to apply (never apply it). ## Prerequisites Requires the aws-vpc-dns-diagnostics MCP server registered in the Agent Space with its tools allowlisted. The server is at `mcp/aws-vpc-dns-diagnostics-mcp/`. If the server is not registered or SSM is unreachable, report that as the blocker rather than guessing at the resolution path.

Listed tools are metadata hints, not tested compatibility. Agent prompts are suggested handoffs.
Check the source for dependencies, API keys and third-party costs. A public repository does not mean every service is free.
Copies are not installs. Installation counts require a reported successful installation; they are not a blanket quality guarantee.
