AWS SSO MCP server
by aashari
Let your AI log into AWS, list your accounts and roles, and run AWS commands for you.
This is a small helper that connects your AI assistant to your company's AWS cloud accounts. Once it is set up, you can ask your AI in plain English to look at your cloud resources, and it will run the right commands for you. It is handy if you work with AWS and want to skip typing commands by hand.
What is an MCP server? The 30-second version
On its own, your AI can only chat. An MCP server is a small helper program that gives your AI a new skill or a connection to another service. This one connects your AI to AWS, the place where your company keeps its cloud servers and files. So when you ask a question about your AWS accounts, the AI can actually go and look, instead of guessing.
What this MCP server does
You ask your AI something about your AWS setup, like which accounts you can access. The AI passes your request to this helper. The helper logs into AWS using your company's single sign-on, then runs the AWS command you need. The result comes back into the chat as a list or a short answer. It can also run commands on your cloud servers for you, without you opening a terminal.
Click to zoomWhat you can do with it
- Log into AWS with your company single sign-on
- List all the AWS accounts and roles you can use
- Check whether you are still logged in
- Run AWS commands like listing storage buckets or servers
- Look at running servers and their status
- Run shell commands on a cloud server remotely
- Compare resources between two AWS accounts
Try asking your AI
- “Log into AWS SSO and show me my authentication status”
- “List all my AWS accounts and the roles I can use”
- “List all S3 buckets in my production account using the ReadOnly role”
- “Check the disk usage on EC2 instance i-1234567890abcdef0”
What it gives back to you
You get back plain answers in the chat: lists of accounts, roles, buckets, or servers, plus short status messages. When you run a command, you see its output, like a table of running instances or the result of a shell command. If something fails, you get an error message explaining what went wrong.
Before you start
What you need
- An AWS account with IAM Identity Center (AWS SSO) set up by your company
- Your AWS SSO start URL, like https://your-company.awsapps.com/start
- The AWS region for your SSO, like us-east-1
- Node.js installed on your computer
Good to know
This helper can run commands that change or delete things in your AWS accounts, so only use it with roles that match what you really want to do.
