Agent Toolkit for AWS

AWS's official MCP servers, skills and plugins that help coding agents build and deploy on AWS.

Sources and review

Checked against public documentation on . Suitability guidance is our editorial judgment; this is not a performance benchmark or an endorsement.

Best for

Coding agents that deploy to AWS and need current, AWS-supported guidance and tooling.

Avoid if

You want AWS actions without local credentials; API calls and scripts need an AWS account configured on the machine, though documentation search does not.
