Cloud Audit MCP Server

What can a hijacked AI agent reach in your AWS account, and can you prove it? Open-source, read-only AWS security scanner. 110 checks, 64 IAM privilege-escalation methods, 31 attack-chain rules, blast radius for any resource, and agent-blast for Bedrock Agents and AgentCore: what a prompt-injected or credential-stolen agent can reach, with the IAM policy simulator as the witness.

People who work with audit, aws and cloud security and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.

01 · Install Cloud Audit

Claude Code

claude mcp add gebalamariusz-cloud-audit -- uvx cloud-audit

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "gebalamariusz-cloud-audit": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "cloud-audit"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

Using another client? Same JSON, different key
