Basic information
An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that brings powerful AWS FinOps capabilities directly into your AI assistant. Analyze cloud costs, audit for waste, and get budget insights using natural language, all while keeping your credentials secure on your local machine.
Add this server to your MCP-compatible client using the configuration below.

Install via pipx install aws-finops-mcp-server (or using uv). Configure one or more AWS CLI profiles. Then add the server to your MCP client’s configuration file (e.g., Claude for Desktop’s claude_desktop_config.json). After restarting the client, ask questions about your AWS finances in plain English.

Each `get_cost` call makes 2 calls to the AWS Cost Explorer API, costing $0.01. The `run_finops_audit` tool uses other AWS APIs (EC2, Budgets) that are generally in the free tier or have negligible cost.
Claude Desktop and Amazon Q CLI are explicitly supported. Any MCP‑compatible client that supports tools can also be used.
The IAM policy must allow the following read‑only actions: `ce:GetCostAndUsage`, `budgets:ViewBudget`, `ec2:DescribeInstances`, `ec2:DescribeVolumes`, `ec2:DescribeAddresses`, and `sts:GetCallerIdentity`.
The server runs locally and uses your existing AWS CLI configuration. Credentials never leave your machine; API calls are made directly from your local environment to AWS.
