S3 runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 54 installs a week from npm. Last commit 30 Aug 2026.
MCP server for AWS S3 with fine-grained tool control and S3-compatible endpoint support.
Today is the operative word: we check S3 every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.
This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.
claude mcp add s3 -- npx -y s3-aws-mcp-server
{
"mcpServers": {
"s3": {
"args": [
"-y",
"s3-aws-mcp-server"
],
"command": "npx"
}
}
}
[mcp_servers.s3]
command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "s3-aws-mcp-server"]
{
"mcpServers": {
"s3": {
"args": [
"-y",
"s3-aws-mcp-server"
],
"command": "npx"

"mcpServers": {

This one needs environment variables set before it will start:
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID (AWS access key ID for authentication.), AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY (AWS secret access key for authentication.), AWS_REGION (AWS region for S3 operations.), AWS_ENDPOINT_URL (Custom S3 endpoint URL for MinIO or S3-compatible services.), S3_FORCE_PATH_STYLE (Use path-style addressing instead of virtual-hosted-style.), S3_BUCKET (Constrain all operations to a single bucket.), S3_ENABLED_TOOLGROUPS (Comma-separated tool groups: readonly or readwrite.), S3_ENABLED_TOOLS (Whitelist specific tools by name.), S3_DISABLED_TOOLS (Blacklist specific tools by name.), SKIP_HEALTH_CHECKS (Skip AWS credential validation health checks at startup.).
