The Model Context Protocol (MCP) specification supports OAuth, but AWS MCP servers use AWS IAM authentication (SigV4). This package bridges that gap by automatically signing requests with your local AWS credentials, eliminating the need to build custom SigV4 logic.\n\nYou can use it two ways: as a command-line proxy that runs between your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Kiro CLI) and an AWS MCP server, or as a Python library to integrate AWS IAM-secured MCP servers directly into AI agent applications built with LangChain, LlamaIndex, or Strands Agents. It depends on boto3 and botocore for AWS credential handling and fastmcp for MCP protocol support.","worth_installing":"Yes. The package solves a real problem\u2014AWS IAM authentication for MCP\u2014with low install friction, active maintenance, permissive licensing, and no known vulnerabilities. It is well-positioned for teams building AI agents or using MCP clients that need to reach AWS-hosted MCP servers. Install if you need SigV4-authenticated MCP access; skip if you only use OAuth-based MCP servers or do not use MCP."},"id":"mcp-proxy-for-aws","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/mcp-proxy-for-aws","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/mcp-proxy-for-aws.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/mcp-proxy-for-aws/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-07-20","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"mcp-proxy-for-aws","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"MCP Proxy for AWS"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":1832847,"position":3508,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.6.4"}
