AWS MCP Server Reaches General Availability with Full API Access and IAM Audit Controls
Amazon Web Services
AWS released the AWS MCP Server as generally available (US East N. Virginia and EU Frankfurt) on May 6. It exposes all 15,000+ AWS API operations via a single call_aws MCP tool using existing IAM credentials, plus live-fetching documentation tools and a sandboxed run_script tool for Python against AWS services. CloudWatch and CloudTrail provide audit trails; IAM context keys enable distinct permissions for human vs. agent operations.
Why it matters
GA status enables enterprise teams to deploy AI agents that autonomously manage AWS infrastructure with production-grade auditability and fine-grained IAM controls, lowering the barrier to agentic cloud operations.
