Frequently asked questions

What is the AWS CDK MCP server?

The AWS CDK MCP server is an Cloud Platforms Model Context Protocol server that lets Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code with Copilot, and other MCP-compatible AI agents get prescriptive CDK advice, explain CDK Nag rules, manage suppressions for infrastructure as code. It exposes AWS CDK's capabilities as tools the AI can call directly from your editor or CLI.

How do I install AWS CDK MCP with Claude Code?

The fastest way is the MCPizy CLI: run `mcpizy install aws-cdk` and MCPizy will add the server to your `.claude.json` automatically. You can also install it manually by adding an entry under `mcpServers` in `.claude.json` with the command `npx -y @aws/cdk-mcp` and restarting Claude Code.

Is AWS CDK MCP free?

Yes. The AWS CDK MCP server is free and open source (see the GitHub repository linked on this page). You may still need a AWS CDK account or API key to connect the server to the underlying service, but the MCP layer itself has no MCPizy subscription cost.

Does AWS CDK MCP work with Cursor and Windsurf?

Yes. Any MCP-compatible client works — including Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor (via `.cursor/mcp.json`), Windsurf, VS Code with Copilot Chat, and custom agents built on the MCP SDK. The same install command targets all of them; only the config file path differs.
