AWS Documentation

The AWS Labs aws-documentation server, for current instance families, pricing tiers and regional availability. It is read-only.

Server nameaws-documentation
Bundled bytsh-stack-aws
Transportstdio, launched as uvx awslabs.aws-documentation-mcp-server@latest
Prerequisiteuv

Prerequisite: uv​

The server is a Python package launched with uvx. Without uv, that one server fails to start and everything else works. The plugin README suggests:

brew install uv # or: curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

What uses it​

auditing-aws-cost lists it as a data source for current instance families, pricing tiers and regional availability, and makes it mandatory before recommending a specific instance type. Terraform AWS provider documentation comes from Context7, which tsh-core bundles.

Where it is installed​

tsh-stack-aws installs at project scope, because it belongs to an AWS repository, not to a person. Cloud servers ship with the cloud's own plugin, so a GCP repository never starts this server.

What is not bundled​

No write-capable AWS API server is bundled. Live account state is read through the aws CLI with describe, list and get verbs only, so your own permission rules apply to every call.
