+
+## Modify Instance Attributes
+
+Change instance type, user data, or source/dest check. Instance type and user data require the instance to be **stopped** first.
+
+### Change Instance Type
+
+```bash
+aws ec2 stop-instances --instance-ids $INSTANCE_ID
+
+aws ec2 modify-instance-attribute \
+  --instance-id $INSTANCE_ID \
+  --instance-type t3.medium
+
+aws ec2 start-instances --instance-ids $INSTANCE_ID
+```
+
+## Console Output
+
+Retrieve the serial console log for a running instance. Output is base64-encoded.
+
+```bash
+aws ec2 get-console-output --instance-id $INSTANCE_ID
+```
+
+Decode the output:
+
+```bash
+aws ec2 get-console-output --instance-id $INSTANCE_ID \
+  --query 'Output' --output text | base64 -d
+```
+
+## Instance Types
+
+List instance types available on the current host. The catalog is generated from the host CPU (Intel, AMD, or ARM) and includes burstable (t-family), general purpose (m-family), compute optimised (c-family), and memory optimised (r-family) types.
+
+```bash
+aws ec2 describe-instance-types
+```
+
+Filter to a specific type:
+
+```bash
+aws ec2 describe-instance-types --instance-types t3.micro t3.small
+```
+
+Show capacity (how many of each type can still be launched):
+
+```bash
+aws ec2 describe-instance-types \
+  --filters Name=capacity,Values=true
 ```
