Aaws logs describe-log-streams --log-group-name MyGroup --order-by LastEventTime --descending --limit 1

Describe-log-streams supports ordering by LastEventTime and limiting results.
Step 2: Confirm command filters to most recent stream

Final Answer:
aws logs describe-log-streams --log-group-name MyGroup --order-by LastEventTime --descending --limit 1 -> Option A
Quick Check:
Describe-log-streams with order and limit finds recent stream [OK]
