What this skill does
Amazon Cognito Amazon Cognito is a service that lets developers add user sign-up, sign-in, and access control to web and mobile apps. It helps manage user identities and authenticate users through various methods, including social media providers and enterprise identity systems. Developers use it to offload the complexities of user authentication and authorization.

Membrane handles authentication and credentials refresh automatically — so you can focus on the integration logic rather than auth plumbing. Install the CLI Install the Membrane CLI so you can run membrane from the terminal: Authentication This will either open a browser for authentication or print an authorization URL to the console, depending on whether interactive mode is available. Headless environments: The command will print an authorization URL. Ask the user to open it in a browser. When they see a code after completing login, finish with: Add --json to any command for machine-readable JSON output. Agent Types : claude, openclaw, codex, warp, windsurf, etc. Those will be used to adjust tooling to be used best with your harness Connecting to Amazon Cognito Use membrane connection ensure to find or create a connection by app URL or domain: The user completes authentication in the browser. The output contains the new connection id. This is the fastest way to get a connection. The URL is normalized to a domain and matched against known apps. If no app is found, one is created and a connector is built automatically. If the returned connection has state: "READY", skip to Step 2. 1b. …
