What the code does

Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

Runs an external command bin/aws-mcp.mjs:177, src/aws-cli.ts:431, src/sso.ts:276 и ещё 1

    const out = execFileSync(cmd, ["--version"], {

Touches key and credential files release.sh:429, src/aws-cli.ts:544, src/tools/assume.ts:291 и ещё 1

  If the error was E401 or E404, the automation token in ~/.npmrc is dead.

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

This code can reach further than it looks

We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

AWS MCP Server — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for AWS MCP Server?

AWS MCP Server runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package @yawlabs/aws-mcp was installed 1 942 times last week.

How do I connect AWS MCP Server?

Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls @yawlabs/aws-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use AWS MCP Server?

The npm package @yawlabs/aws-mcp was installed 1 942 times in the last week. Week over week that is +640%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is AWS MCP Server open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 5 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
