Deploying an extension layer doesn't set description #906
Description
I'm deploying a lambda extension layer with cargo lambda deploy and would like to set the description field. However, even with setting it I don't see a description set on the layer.
After running this:
cargo lambda deploy --extension --compatible-runtimes provided.al2023 --description "Tag=ace25ce" --binary-name xxxxx
✅ extension uploaded successfully 🎉
🛠️ binary last compiled now
🔍 extension arn: arn:aws:lambda:us-east-1:xxx:layer:xxx:66I don't see a description set:
aws lambda list-layer-versions --region us-east-1 --layer-name xxxx
{
"LayerVersions": [
{
"LayerVersionArn": "arn:aws:lambda:us-east-1:xxx:layer:xxx:66",
"Version": 66,
"CreatedDate": "2026-01-22T21:07:21.998+0000",
"CompatibleRuntimes": [
"provided.al2023"
],
"CompatibleArchitectures": [
"x86_64"
]
},
...I also don't see a description in the UI:
cargo-lambda 1.8.6 (345c38a 2025-07-18Z)
