## Using the AWS Copilot CLI

* **Note**\
  The source code for the AWS Copilot CLI is available on [GitHub](https://github.com/aws/copilot-cli). The latest CLI documentation is available on the AWS Copilot [website](https://aws.github.io/copilot-cli/). We recommend that you submit issues and pull requests for changes that you would like to have included. However, Amazon Web Services doesn't currently support running modified copies of AWS Copilot code. Report issues with AWS Copilot by connecting with us on [Gitter](https://gitter.im/aws/copilot-cli) or [GitHub](https://github.com/aws/copilot-cli) where you can open issues, provide feedback, and report bugs.
* **Important**\
  The warning in the output is expected and is not problematic. It occurs because there is not a chain of trust between your personal PGP key (if you have one) and the Amazon ECS PGP key. For more information, see [Web of trust](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_of_trust).

## Using the Amazon ECS CLI

* **Note**\
  If you encounter permission issues, ensure that you have administrator access on Windows and you are running PowerShell as an administrator.

* **Note**\
  After the `PATH` variable is set, the Amazon ECS CLI can be used from either Windows PowerShell or the command prompt.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://awsnotes.dendron.so/containers/amazon-ecs/topics/developer-tools-overview.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
