The Hosting step's identity check is an in-process boto3 STS call, so it passed on a machine with no AWS CLI at all. An operator could create an access key, watch "AWS identity verified · aws-admin saved", and finish setup while the executable every capability-owned AWS operation shells out to had never been established; the gap only surfaced later, downstream. Choosing AWS now preflights that executable before anything is created, pasted, stored, or verified. One read-only check answers with the recovery for this machine: not installed (the installer command for this operating system), installed off PATH (the directory to add), or present but unusable (what it reported). A refusal keeps the operator on the answer they gave — install and "Check again" continues into AWS, "Back" returns to the provider question, and only "Not now" leaves hosting undecided. The same contract fronts `yoke aws exec` and `yoke vps`, which previously either named the missing executable without a recovery step or raised a bare traceback, and `yoke aws preflight` exposes it so the onboard skill can establish the prerequisite before it asks for a credential and block its checklist row instead of recording hosting as configured.
