# ECS Reconnaissance
Discover everything about an ECS environment. Run this skill to gather comprehensive context about clusters, services, and their tasks before making any decisions, changes, or recommendations. Standalone (`run-task`) and scheduled (EventBridge) tasks are not discovered — discovery enumerates workloads via `list-services`.
## When to Use This Skill
**Run this skill when the user:**
- Asks about their ECS environment ("what clusters do I have?", "describe my ECS setup")
- Wants to understand their service configuration ("what launch type?", "how is it deployed?")
- Plans to modify a service and needs current-state context first
- Asks to document or review their ECS resources
- Needs task definition details, scaling policies, or networking config
- Mentions an ECS cluster or service and seems to need context
**Also trigger this skill when:**
- Another workflow needs ECS environment information as input
- User mentions ECS and needs discovery before recommendations
- You need to understand the ECS setup before giving guidance
