cloud-audit

Overview

cloud-audit is a Model Context Protocol server that brings AWS security scanning directly into your AI assistant. It detects attack chains, identifies IAM privilege escalation risks, and suggests fixes — letting Claude, Cursor, VS Code, and other MCP clients analyze your AWS environment and recommend security improvements in real time.

The server runs locally on your machine via the Python package cloud-audit, installed with uvx cloud-audit. It communicates with your MCP client over stdio and requires no credentials to get started. Version v2.0.1 is published under the MIT license with full source code available at gebalamariusz/cloud-audit on GitHub, where the project has gathered 69 stars.

cloud-audit is categorized as Security on mcp.site and integrates with any MCP-compatible client including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and Zed. Maintainers are welcome to claim this listing to verify ownership and keep information up to date.
