The AWS MCP Server is now generally available
Today, AWS announces the general availability of the AWS MCP Server, a managed server that gives AI coding agents secure, auditable access to AWS services through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). The AWS MCP Server is a core component of the Agent Toolkit for AWS, which helps coding agents build on AWS more effectively. With the AWS MCP Server, organizations can let coding agents interact with AWS while maintaining visibility and control through IAM-based guardrails, Amazon CloudWatch metrics, and AWS CloudTrail logging.
Since the preview launch at re:Invent 2025, the AWS MCP Server has added several capabilities. Agents can now call any AWS API through a single tool, including operations that require file uploads or long-running execution. Sandboxed script execution lets agents run Python code against AWS services for multi-step operations, without access to your local filesystem or shell tools. Agent skills replace agent SOPs with a more flexible format: agents discover and load curated guidance on demand, keeping context window usage low while providing tested procedures for complex tasks. Additionally, documentation search and skill discovery no longer require AWS credentials, removing a common barrier to getting started.
The AWS MCP Server is available at no additional charge; you pay only for the AWS resources your agents use. To learn more, see Agent Toolkit for AWS. To get started, visit the Agent Toolkit for AWS Quick Start guide.
You can use the AWS MCP Server in the following AWS Regions: US East (N. Virginia) and Europe (Frankfurt).
