Looks like there's a race condition in the provisioning. I got an error saying that the instance-id was not found, but when I looked in the EC2 console, there it was. I suspect that cucumber-chef issued the api call to boot the instance, and Amazon's API response was eventually consistent. cucumber-chef should retry with a timeout to find the instance data.
