@PeerHerholz In my case, I was working from a forked checkout of the repository and ended up in an environment where awscli was not available. You're right that if users install the package via pip install, awscli should be installed automatically through the declared dependencies.
However, I think the main issue remains independent of how that situation arises. If awscli is unavailable for any reason (e.g., editable/development setups, incomplete environments, dependency issues, manual installations, etc.), the current behavior produces misleading downstream errors such as NoMatchingDataError or "No subjects found". Detecting the missing dependency early and raising a clear, informative exception makes the root cause immediately obvious and improves the debugging experience.
