AWS CLI MCP Server

A simple implementation of an AWS CLI MCP server.

Overview

This MCP server provides a bridge to execute AWS CLI commands through two main tools:

• aws_cli_read: For read-only AWS operations (listing resources, describing configurations, etc.)
• aws_cli_write: For write operations (creating/modifying/deleting AWS resources, pricing queries)

Features

• Execute AWS CLI commands safely through MCP tools
• Separate read and write permissions for better security control
• Built-in timeout protection (5 minutes)
• Error handling and output capture
• Support for complex bash scripts and command consolidation

Usage

The server exposes two tools that can execute AWS CLI commands:

1. Read Operations: Use aws_cli_read for queries and listing operations
2. Write Operations: Use aws_cli_write for modifications and resource management

Both tools require:

• script: The AWS CLI command or bash script to execute
• reasoning: Explanation for why the operation is needed
