rosettahub-mcp-server 0.1.0

MCP server for managing RosettaHUB student AWS cloud accounts via SOAP API

rosettahub-mcp-server

An MCP server for managing RosettaHUB student AWS cloud accounts

---

RosettaHUB is a platform used by educators to provision and manage student AWS cloud environments. This MCP server wraps the RosettaHUB SOAP API into 16 tools and 2 resources, letting AI assistants like Claude manage student accounts through natural language.

Example: "Show me which students have used over 80% of their budget" or "Run aws ec2 describe-instances across all student accounts"

Quick Start

Install

pip install rosettahub-mcp-server

Configure

Security

• Command validation — All AWS commands must start with aws to prevent arbitrary execution
• Region validation — Region parameters are validated against AWS format to prevent flag injection
• No shell injection — Commands run with shell=False using shlex.split()
• Subprocess timeout — AWS CLI calls are capped at 60 seconds to prevent hung processes
• Minimal subprocess environment — Only AWS credentials and PATH are passed to child processes
• Temporary credentials — AWS access uses short-lived STS sessions (1 hour default), never long-term keys
• Logging to stderr — stdout is reserved for MCP JSON-RPC transport

Development

git clone https://github.com/danielcregg/rosettahub-mcp-server.git
cd rosettahub-mcp-server
pip install -e ".[dev]"

Run tests

pytest -v

All tests use mocked SOAP responses — no API key needed.

Lint & type check

ruff check src/ tests/
mypy src/ --ignore-missing-imports

Run locally

export RH_API_KEY="your-key"
