Today, AWS announces the developer preview of the AWS API model context protocol (MCP) server, a new tool that enables foundation models (FMs) to interact with any AWS API through natural language by creating and executing syntactically correct and valid CLI commands.
With the AWS API MCP Server, customers using popular MCP clients can streamline tasks like troubleshooting workloads, managing application deployments, and exploring AWS services and capabilities more easily, by issuing natural language requests that the host FM can translate into API calls.
The AWS API MCP Server allows MCP clients to discover supported AWS APIs and make calls to them through the host FM, enabling actions such as inspecting, creating, and modifying AWS resources. The server provides secure access control through AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) credentials and pre-configured API permissions, ensuring that FMs can only access or perform authorized actions on permitted AWS APIs.
The AWS API MCP Server is released as an open source project and available now. Visit the AWS Labs GitHub repository to download, deploy, and start experimenting with natural language interaction with AWS APIs today.
