Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for interacting with AWS

Overview

AWS API MCP Server lets AI assistants interact with AWS services and resources through AWS CLI commands, enabling users to create, update, and manage AWS resources and helping select appropriate CLI commands and access the latest AWS API features released after a model's knowledge cutoff. It requires configured AWS credentials and supports stdio and HTTP modes. Note: it is superseded by the official AWS MCP server; a migration guide is available.
