When running services in ECS, I constantly needed to check: - What exactly is running where? - Is my service healthy? - What parameters or environment variables got applied? - What do the latest logs show - did the container start as expected?
The AWS ECS web console is confusing to navigate, with multiple clicks through different screens just to get basic information. The AWS CLI is powerful but verbose and requires memorizing complex commands.
lazy-ecs solves this with a simple, interactive CLI that lets you quickly drill down from clusters → services → tasks → containers with just arrow keys. It destroys the AWS CLI in usability for ECS exploration and debugging.
