I’m leaning towards D with the access key and secret key, but it feels a bit too manual for what we usually do.

I feel like --with-aws-bootstrap-credentials=true could be relevant, but it seems more like a general setting than specific credentials.

I remember practicing a similar question, and I think --cloud-credentials= was mentioned as a possible option.

I think the flag for custom credentials might be --aws-profile=, but I'm not entirely sure.
