AWS MCP Server
AWS MCP Server lets AI securely access AWS using docs, API calls, and SOP workflows.
About This MCP Server
The MCP Proxy for AWS package provides two ways to connect AI applications to MCP servers on AWS:
1. Using it as a proxy - It becomes a lightweight, client-side bridge between MCP clients (AI assistants like Claude Desktop, Kiro CLI) and MCP servers on AWS. (See MCP Proxy) 2. Using it as a library - Programmatically connect popular AI agent frameworks (LangChain, LlamaIndex, Strands Agents, etc.) to MCP servers on AWS. (See Programmatic Access)
Tools & Endpoints
Example Workflow
Add the following configuration to your MCP client config file (e.g., for Kiro CLI, edit ~/.kiro/settings/mcp.json):
> Cline users should not use --log-level argument because Cline checks the log messages in stderr for text "error" (case insensitive).
