## TL;DR

Keep your ~/.aws/credentials and config in place; the fix is on the agent side. Using the CodeBuild local agent (codebuild_build.sh), builds fail because AWS credentials are not passed into the build when the buildspec uses parameter-store variables (env.parameter-store).

## Steps

1. Using the CodeBuild local agent (codebuild_build.sh), builds fail because AWS credentials are not passed into the build when the buildspec uses parameter-store variables (env.parameter-store). The local agent did not forward the host's ~/.aws credentials into the build container in that path.

2. Update to the latest version of the CodeBuild local agent: AWS staff confirmed the credential-forwarding fix there (SHA 78f5c1a...), and the reporter verified builds now work. Keep your ~/.aws/credentials and config in place; the fix is on the agent side.

## When to use

You are seeing this: The local agent did not forward the host's ~/.aws credentials into the build container in that path. Use this skill when you run into "CodeBuild local agent: AWS credentials not passed with parameter-store vars".

## When not to use

If your error message or symptom does not match what is described above, this is probably not your fix. Search for your exact error text instead of forcing this one to fit.

## Versions

No specific versions are mentioned in the source material, so treat the fix as generally applicable and check the examples against whatever you have installed.

## Why this happens

Using the CodeBuild local agent (codebuild_build.sh), builds fail because AWS credentials are not passed into the build when the buildspec uses parameter-store variables (env.parameter-store).
