Actions
What your agents can do in Amazon S3
List buckets and files, read and download files, upload any file, save JSON files and delete files in Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service), signed with an AWS access key. Files go in and out by reference (fil_…), never as text. S3 answers lists in XML, which this tool returns as text.
Read 5
Look things up. Nothing changes.
List buckets
Lists the general purpose buckets the access key's account owns, up to 1,000 a page.
List files
Lists the files (objects) in a bucket, optionally only those whose key starts with a prefix, like reports/2026/.
Read a file
Reads one file (object) from a bucket.
Download a file
Downloads one file (object) of any type, text and JSON included, as a file reference in file.
Get a bucket's Region
Says which AWS Region a bucket lives in, as S3's XML text in result (LocationConstraint; empty means us-east-1).
Write 3
Create, change or send.
Upload a file
Uploads a file to a bucket under a key, replacing any file with the same key: a file a person attached, or one another tool returned (pass its file reference, fil_…).
Save a JSON file
Saves a JSON object or array as a file in a bucket, with content type application/json, replacing any file with the same key.
Delete a fileDeletes data
Deletes one file (object) from a bucket.
A person can approve first
Any write action can be set to wait for a person's approval before it runs, so an agent asks before it changes anything. Actions that delete data ask first by default.

Ideas
Ideas to start with
Starting points made only from the actions above. Mix them with any other tool your agents can use.
- 01
Ask about your Amazon S3 data
Ask a question in plain words. The agent can list buckets, list files or read a file in Amazon S3, then answers with what it found.
- 02
Let an agent update Amazon S3
Have the agent upload a file or save a JSON file in Amazon S3 as part of a larger task. Turn on approval and a person signs off on each change first.
- 03
Share what it finds in Slack
Give one agent Amazon S3 and Slack: it can list buckets in Amazon S3 and post a summary to a Slack channel in the same run.
