What is the Cloud MCP server?

Cloud MCP server exists for a simple reason — assistants are far more useful when they can act on Cloud directly instead of describing what you should do. AWS security scanner with Attack Chains, Breach Cost Estimation, and MCP Server for AI agents.

What you get

Find AWS attack paths, IAM escalation routes, and the fixes that matter most.

Setting it up

Installation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at cloud-audit on PyPI and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.

What the assistant can call

Once Cloud is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:

  • Root — cause fixes** // groups findings by shared cause and ranks them: "fix 4 things, break 22 chains," with a what-if simulate to preview impact
  • run — pip install cloud-audit
  • uses — github/codeql-action/upload-sarif@v3

Before you rely on it

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • MCP clients confirm each tool call by default. Leave that on until you have watched what the cloud mcp server does with a few real requests.

Choosing this one

Among the cloud and infrastructure options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. Cloud's toolset — Root, run, uses — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by gebalamariusz; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.

Frequently asked questions

It connects Cloud to MCP-compatible AI assistants such as Claude and Cursor, exposing 3 tools (Root, run, uses) that the assistant can call on your behalf. Instead of copying data back and forth by hand, the assistant works with Cloud directly.
