# SST v4 for AWS
## When to Use

Use this skill when you need sST v4 (Ion) expert for managing AWS resources as code with the Pulumi-backed framework. Use when writing or editing sst.config.ts, building infra/ modules (sst.aws.Function/Bucket/Dynamo/Cron/Service/Router, sst.Secret, sst.Linkable, raw aws.* Pulumi resources), wiring resource links,...


SST v4 (the "Ion" engine) is a Pulumi-backed IaC framework: you describe AWS
resources in TypeScript and SST/Pulumi reconciles them into your account. It
gives you high-level `sst.aws.*` components (Function, Bucket, Dynamo, Cron,
Service, …) that expand into many underlying resources, plus an escape hatch to
*any* raw Pulumi `aws.*` resource for the long tail. This skill encodes a
production-proven way to author, link, test, deploy, and troubleshoot SST
stacks on AWS — distilled from real multi-stack projects that have paid for
each lesson with a prod incident.

**SST and Pulumi are third-party — verify current syntax with Context7**
(`resolve-library-id` → `query-docs` for `sst` or `pulumi-aws`) when you're
unsure about a component's options. Verify AWS-side facts (service limits,
model IDs, IAM action names, region availability) with the AWS docs MCP, never
from memory. The patterns here are the *how*; the docs are the *what*.
