aws-mcp-server · Install

Installation

Using uvx (Recommended)

Add to your MCP settings (Cmd+Shift+P → "Claude: Open MCP Config"):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "aws": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["aws-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Using Docker (More Secure)

Docker provides stronger isolation by running commands in a container:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "aws": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": [
        "run",
        "-i",
        "--rm",
        "-v",
        "~/.aws:/home/appuser/.aws:ro",
        "ghcr.io/alexei-led/aws-mcp-server:latest"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Using Streamable HTTP Transport

For web-based MCP clients:

docker run --rm -p 8000:8000 -e AWS_MCP_TRANSPORT=streamable-http -v ~/.aws:/home/appuser/.aws:ro ghcr.io/alexei-led/aws-mcp-server:latest

The server will be available at http://localhost:8000/mcp.
