I usually have short bash scripts that run once I spin up an EC2 server. Sometimes this happens through the Web AWS console. Is there some way I can find those scripts from the EC2 instance's shell? I would rather not have to reconstruct it through history, I presume history has to be command number - limited by default.

Just typing curl http://169.254.169.254/latest/user-data should do it! 169.254.169.254 is a link-local I.P for EC2 instances that helps with querying for this stuff.
