…plugin Add a new skill for evaluating, configuring, and migrating workloads to AWS Lambda Managed Instances. Includes workload fitness assessment, 4-column cost comparison (Lambda OD/SP vs LMI OD/SP), configuration recommendations, thread-safety review, and end-to-end migration framework. Reference files cover cost analysis, configuration tuning, thread safety, runtime-specific migration patterns, infrastructure setup (CLI/SAM/CDK), and troubleshooting.
…nces - Add managed-instances and lmi keywords to plugin.json - Add LMI skill triggers to README aws-serverless section - Add cross-reference to LMI skill in aws-lambda SKILL.md (key capabilities and "When to Load Reference Files" sections) - Update plugin description to mention Lambda Managed Instances

Pull request overview
Adds a new aws-lambda-managed-instances skill to the aws-serverless plugin, providing an agent workflow and reference material to evaluate, configure, and migrate workloads to Lambda Managed Instances (LMI), and wires it into existing plugin docs/metadata.
Changes:
- Introduces a new
aws-lambda-managed-instancesskill (SKILL.md) plus several reference guides (cost, configuration, thread safety, migration patterns, infra setup, troubleshooting). - Updates the existing
aws-lambdaskill to cross-reference the new managed-instances skill. - Updates plugin metadata and root README to mention LMI and add trigger phrases/keywords.

Hey @sbbhimji, nice work on this, the skill is well structured and the content is technically accurate. Left 2 small comments to address before merging.
…d cost example - Update Powertools .NET to supported (logging, tracing, idempotency, batch, parameters) - Remove hardcoded cost example, defer to LMI Pricing Calculator

Summary
Adds a new skill to help users evaluate, configure, and migrate workloads to AWS Lambda Managed Instances (LMI) — the
recently launched feature that runs Lambda functions on dedicated EC2 instances with AWS managing the lifecycle.
What's included
SKILL.md (205 lines) — core workflow with 6 steps:
6 reference files (42-96 lines each):
cost-comparison.md— pricing formulas, discount comparison, worked example, break-even guidanceconfiguration-guide.md— instance type decision tree, memory sizing from existing Lambda/EC2, concurrency tuning,scaling controls
thread-safety.md— code review checklist, runtime-specific guidance (Node.js, Python, Java, .NET), commonanti-patterns
migration-patterns.md— before/after code examples per runtime (global state, file I/O, database connections)infrastructure-setup.md— IAM roles, VPC requirements, CLI workflow, SAM templatetroubleshooting.md— common issues, debugging steps for startup/performance/costPlugin registration:
