Type annotations and code completion for awscrt
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you use awscrt and want static type checking. Install it alongside awscrt in any project using mypy or pyright. It has no runtime cost, no dependencies, and is actively maintained. If you do not use awscrt or do not use a type checker, it is not needed.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Python 3.10 or later.
- The awscrt package itself must be installed separately for runtime use.
- Low friction install with no runtime dependencies.

What it is and what it does
types-awscrt is a type-stubs package that adds static type annotations to the awscrt library, a low-level AWS runtime library. It exists solely to provide IDE autocomplete and enable mypy and pyright to type-check code that uses awscrt, without adding any runtime behavior. The package contains no executable code—only type definitions—and has zero runtime dependencies.
You install it alongside awscrt when you want your editor and type checker to understand awscrt's API surface. It is maintained as part of the mypy_boto3_builder project and tracks awscrt's version numbers, so installing types-awscrt 0.36.2 provides stubs for awscrt 0.36.2.
Use it for
- Enable mypy or pyright to type-check Python code that calls awscrt functions and classes.
- Get IDE autocomplete and inline documentation hints when writing code against awscrt.
- Catch type mismatches in awscrt API calls during development rather than at runtime.
- Support strict type-checking workflows in projects that depend on awscrt.
- Integrate awscrt into a codebase with full static type safety alongside other typed dependencies.
