Use either the AWS web UI or CLI to create a Node.js runtime Lambda function. The
`create-function` call requires initial code, so seed it with an empty placeholder zip —

`deploy-lambda.sh`. Ex:

```bash
# Create a placeholder zip to bootstrap the function (contents are overwritten in step 5)
zip placeholder.zip src/index.ts

aws lambda create-function \
--function-name my-temporal-worker \
--runtime nodejs22.x \
--handler lib/index.handler \
--handler index.handler \
--role arn:aws:iam::<YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID>:role/my-temporal-worker-execution \
--timeout 600 \
--memory-size 256

--code ZipFile=fileb://placeholder.zip
