Description

**Desktop (please complete the following information):**

- OS: macos
- VS Code version: 1.59.0 (Universal)
- AWS Toolkit extension version: v1.29.0

**Question**

Hi! I've been trying to use the AWS Toolkit with Localstack running on my machine. My localstack setup is running fine, I can access it with the `awslocal` wrapper of the `awscli`. I created a new aws profile for Localstack, but I can't find a way to link this profile to the `localhost:4655` endpoint used by localstack. To my understanding, this seems to be the missing bit.

Is it possible to link the AWS Toolkit to Localstack?

Research direction

Review the AWS Toolkit's handling of AWS profiles and service endpoints, using the reported Localstack setup and the localhost:4655 endpoint as the reproduction case. Check how the awslocal wrapper and the custom AWS profile reach the toolkit; done means a profile can be linked to Localstack and used by the extension.
