Running locally with the Claude desktop app

Installing via Smithery

To install AWS MCP Server for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:

npx -y @smithery/cli install mcp-server-aws --client claude

Manual Installation

1. Clone this repository.
2. Configure AWS credentials using environment variables (AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_REGION) or the default AWS credential chain. The server requires an IAM user with read/write permissions for S3 and DynamoDB.
3. Add the following configuration to your claude_desktop_config.json file:

"mcpServers": {
  "mcp-server-aws": {
    "command": "uv",
    "args": [
      "--directory",
      "/path/to/repo/mcp-server-aws",
      "run",
      "mcp-server-aws"
    ]
  }
}

4. Install and open the Claude desktop app.
5. Test the setup by asking Claude to perform a read/write operation (e.g., creating an S3 bucket). Debugging tools are available in the MCP documentation here.
