AWS MCP Server - SyntropAI Ecosystem
Part of the SyntropAI MCP Ecosystem - A unified multi-cloud abstraction framework.
This MCP (Model Context Protocol) server provides secure, dynamic access to AWS services through the innovative SyntropAI abstraction layer. Unlike traditional hardcoded service catalogs, this server supports any AWS service through dynamic SDK access with built-in security sandboxing.
🚀 Key Features
- Universal AWS Access: Dynamic access to all AWS services without hardcoded limitations
- Secure Code Execution: AST-based validation and sandboxed execution environment
- Provider-Agnostic Design: Built on SyntropAI's unified abstraction pattern
- Future-Proof Architecture: Automatically supports new AWS services without updates
- Docker Containerization: Production-ready deployment
🏗️ Architecture
This server implements the SyntropAI abstraction pattern:
Claude Desktop → MCP Protocol → AWS MCP Server → SyntropAIBox → boto3 → AWS Services
Core Components:
- AWSSession: Unified AWS credential management usingBaseSession
- AWSResourceQuerier: Secure query execution extending BaseQuerier
- AST Sandbox: Safe code execution with timeout protection
- Dynamic Schema: Runtime API documentation generation
📋 Prerequisites
- Python 3.10 or higher
- AWS credentials configured (via ~/.aws/credentials, environment variables, or IAM roles)
- Docker (recommended)
- SyntropAIBox core library
🐳 Docker Installation (Recommended)
Build and Run
# Build the image
docker build -t mcp-server-aws-resources .
Run with AWS profile
docker run -i --rm \
-e AWS_PROFILE=default \
-v ~/.aws:/root/.aws \
mcp-server-aws-resources:latest
Run with environment variables
docker run -i --rm \
-e AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=your_key \
-e AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=your_secret \
-e AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=us-east-1 \
mcp-server-aws-resources:latest
⚙️ Claude Desktop Integration
Add to your claude_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"aws-resources": {
"command": "docker",
"args": [
"run", "-i", "--rm",
"-e", "AWS_PROFILE=default",
"-v", "/Users/yourusername/.aws:/root/.aws",
"mcp-server-aws-resources:latest"
]
}
}
}
🛡️ Security Features
AST-Based Validation
- Prevents malicious code injection - Whitelisted imports and functions - Controlled execution environmentSafe Execution
- Timeout protection (2-second default) - Isolated namespace - JSON-serialized responsesExample Safe Query
# User provides this code snippet:
import boto3
ec2 = session.client('ec2')
result = ec2.describe_instances()
The system:
1. ✅ Validates AST syntax
2. ✅ Checks allowed imports (boto3 approved)
3. ✅ Executes in sandbox with timeout
4. ✅ Returns JSON-serialized results
🔧 Usage Examples
List EC2 Instances
import boto3
ec2 = session.client('ec2')
result = ec2.describe_instances()
Create S3 Bucket
``python
import boto3
s3 = session.client('s3')
result = s3.create_bucket(Bucket='my-unique-bucket-name')
Lambda Functions
python
import boto3
lambda_client = session.client('lambda')
result = lambda_client.list_functions()
``
