I Built an AWS DevOps AI Agent Using Kiro Crew + MCP

Description and use

An autonomous Kiro Crew + AWS DevOps Agent detects and fixes silent ECS failures in 5‑7 min, reducing MTTR and saving resources.

Problem

Silent failures in AWS services (ECS, CodeBuild, Lambda) that never trigger alarms, leading to prolonged MTTR and resource waste.

Outcome

Automated detection and remediation of silent ECS failures reduced MTTR to 5‑7 min and stopped compute waste.

Workflow

• Configure Kiro Crew MCP server for AWS DevOps Agent
• Set cron job to run every 30 min
• Crew spawns parallel subagents for ECS, CI/CD, CloudWatch, DevOps Agent, Lambda checks
• DevOps Agent performs root‑cause analysis and outputs mitigation plan
• Crew executes mitigation commands or opens PR for review
• Crew verifies service health
• Logs all actions to CloudTrail and Crew sessions
