AWS Labs Timestream for InfluxDB MCP Server

An AWS Labs Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Timestream for InfluxDB. This server provides tools to interact with AWS Timestream for InfluxDB APIs, allowing you to create and manage database instances, clusters, parameter groups, and more. It also includes tools to interact with InfluxDB's write and query APIs.

Features

• Create, update, list, describe, and delete Timestream for InfluxDB database instances
• Create, update, list, describe, and delete Timestream for InfluxDB database clusters
• Manage DB parameter groups
• Tag management for Timestream for InfluxDB resources
• Manage InfluxDB 2 buckets and organizations
• Write and query data using InfluxDB 2 APIs

Pre-requisites

1. Install uv from Astral or the GitHub README
2. Install Python using uv python install 3.10
3. Set up AWS credentials with access to AWS services
   • You need an AWS account with appropriate permissions
   • Configure AWS credentials with aws configure or environment variables
   • Consider starting with Read-only permission if you don't want the LLM to modify any resources

Installation

Kiro	Cursor	VS Code

You can modify the settings of your MCP client to run your local server (e.g. for Kiro, ~/.kiro/settings/mcp.json)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "awslabs.timestream-for-influxdb-mcp-server": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["awslabs.timestream-for-influxdb-mcp-server@latest"],
      "env": {
        "AWS_PROFILE": "your-aws-profile",
        "AWS_REGION": "us-east-1",
        "INFLUXDB_URL": "https://your-influxdb-endpoint:8086",
        "INFLUXDB_TOKEN": "your-influxdb-token",
        "INFLUXDB_ORG": "your-influxdb-org",
        "FASTMCP_LOG_LEVEL": "ERROR"
      },
      "disabled": false,
      "autoApprove": []
    }
  }
}

Windows Installation

For Windows users, the MCP server configuration format is slightly different:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "awslabs.timestream-for-influxdb-mcp-server": {
      "disabled": false,
      "timeout": 60,
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uv",
      "args": [
        "tool",
        "run",
        "--from",
        "awslabs.timestream-for-influxdb-mcp-server@latest",
        "awslabs.timestream-for-influxdb-mcp-server.exe"
      ],
      "env": {
        "AWS_PROFILE": "your-aws-profile",
        "AWS_REGION": "us-east-1",
        "INFLUXDB_URL": "https://your-influxdb-endpoint:8086",
        "INFLUXDB_TOKEN": "your-influxdb-token",
        "INFLUXDB_ORG": "your-influxdb-org",
        "FASTMCP_LOG_LEVEL": "ERROR"
      }
    }
  }
}

InfluxDB Connection Security

InfluxDB tools use the INFLUXDB_URL, INFLUXDB_TOKEN, and INFLUXDB_ORG environment variables when no connection parameters are supplied in a tool call.

Connection parameters are treated as a single trust boundary:

• If a tool call supplies any connection parameter, it must supply all parameters required by that tool. Server environment credentials are never used to complete a partial caller-supplied configuration.
• A caller-supplied URL must match INFLUXDB_URL or an entry in the optional, comma-separated INFLUXDB_ALLOWED_URLS environment variable.
• Configure additional endpoints before allowing tool calls to target them. For example, set INFLUXDB_ALLOWED_URLS to https://influxdb-a.example.com:8086,https://influxdb-b.example.com:8086.

This is a breaking change for clients that previously supplied only some connection parameters and relied on environment-variable fallback for the others. Update those clients to either omit all connection parameters or provide a complete configuration for an operator-approved URL.
