From the project README

Creating Amazon Aurora DB Cluster with Instances

Overview

Domain expertise for creating complete Amazon Aurora database setups including cluster creation, instance provisioning, and managed password configuration via AWS Secrets Manager. Supports both Aurora MySQL and Aurora PostgreSQL engines.

Create an Aurora cluster with instances

To create a fully configured Aurora database cluster with attached instances, follow the procedure exactly. See Aurora cluster creation procedure.

The procedure creates an empty Aurora cluster first, then adds a database instance to make it queryable. It uses AWS Secrets Manager for password management and includes proper status monitoring with retry logic.

Troubleshooting

Cluster creation fails

Verify the engine version is supported in your region and that you have sufficient permissions for RDS and Secrets Manager operations.

Instance creation fails

Check that the instance class is compatible with the Aurora engine and available in your region's availability zones.

Long creation times

Aurora cluster and instance creation can take 10-20 minutes. Extended wait times are normal for Aurora resources.

Develop and host Miaoda (Spark/Miaoda) apps: app creation, local full-stack development, cloud generation and iteration, creative design (UI mockups / interactive prototypes / wireframes / landing pages / dashboards / slide decks / visual exploration), integration of AI-related capabilities, Feishu platform capabilities, or other external capabilities; log/Trace/monitoring metric/PV/UV queries; environment variable management; app collaborators and collaboration permissions; app roles and members; and automation triggers (scheduled / record changes / Webhook / Feishu approvals). Use when users want to develop or create a system, tool, platform, or app; develop locally or in the cloud, modify, deploy, publish, launch, or get a shareable link; create a page or website with HTML and deploy it to Miaoda; design, create a mockup, prototype, wireframe, PPT, deck, or visual exploration; or mention Miaoda/Spark/Miaoda apps (links like `/app/app_xxx` or `/page/<token>`, runtime domains like *.aiforce.cloud), app databases, app file storage, open API Keys, visibility, app collaborators/developer permissions, app roles/role members, production logs, API request volume, error volume, latency, traffic, environment variables, or setting up automation tasks, scheduled triggers, or approval-triggered automation for Miaoda apps.

Prepare azd-based Azure projects for deployment: generates azure.yaml, infrastructure (Bicep/Terraform), and Dockerfiles for the Azure Developer CLI (azd) workflow. USE ONLY when the user explicitly wants to use azd as the deployment tool, or the project already has an azure.yaml file. DO NOT USE FOR: non-azd deployments, Python App Service code-only deploys (use python-appservice-deploy), or cross-cloud migration (use azure-cloud-migrate). WHEN: prepare app for azd, create azure.yaml, set up azd infrastructure, modernize app for Azure with azd, deploy with azd, function app, timer trigger, service bus trigger, event-driven function, managed identity, generate Bicep, generate Terraform, create and deploy to Azure.

Generate an interactive bash wizard that walks a human through steps only they can perform. Use when provisioning infrastructure, setting up credentials or CI secrets, walking an unfamiliar third-party dashboard, or running a one-off migration or cutover. Don't invoke this for steps the agent can perform itself.
