[Changelog](CHANGELOG.md) · [Quickstart](docs/quickstart.md) · [Troubleshooting](docs/troubleshooting.md)

Safe, read-only AWS investigation tools for AI coding agents.

`aws-safe-mcp` is a local, read-only MCP server for investigating AWS resources
without exposing a raw AWS SDK escape hatch. It gives AI clients structured,
bounded tools for debugging serverless workloads while preserving IAM as the
authorization boundary.

**Status:** alpha. The server is intentionally read-only in v1, and tool outputs
are designed for investigation rather than complete AWS inventory export.

Use it to:

- Trace serverless dependencies across Lambda, EventBridge, Step Functions, and
  API Gateway.
- Trace Lambda VPC egress paths to understand inferred internet and private
  network reachability.
- Inspect recent failure signals without exposing secrets or raw payloads.
- Check permission paths with IAM simulation when available.
- Give AI clients useful AWS context without handing them a raw SDK shell.

## Install In An AI Client

Use the published package with any MCP client that supports stdio:

Create `~/.config/aws-safe-mcp/config.yaml` first (see [Quickstart](docs/quickstart.md)) — `uvx` will fail without it.

```bash
uvx aws-safe-mcp \
  --profile dev \
  --region eu-west-2 \
  --readonly \
  --config ~/.config/aws-safe-mcp/config.yaml
```
