Tools
Name | Description |
---|---|
CDKGeneralGuidance | Use this tool to get prescriptive CDK advice for building applications on AWS. |
CheckCDKNagSuppressions | Check if CDK code contains Nag suppressions that require human review. Scans TypeScript/JavaScript code for NagSuppressions usage to ensure security suppressions receive proper human oversight and justification. |
ExplainCDKNagRule | Explain a specific CDK Nag rule with AWS Well-Architected guidance. CDK Nag is a crucial tool for ensuring your CDK applications follow AWS security best practices. Basic implementation: ```typescript import { App } from 'aws-cdk-lib'; import { AwsSolutionsChecks } from 'cdk-nag'; const app = new App(); // Create your stack const stack = new MyStack(app, 'MyStack'); // Apply CDK Nag AwsSolutionsChecks.check(app); ``` Optional integration patterns: 1. Using environment variables: ```typescript if (process.env.ENABLE_CDK_NAG === 'true') { AwsSolutionsChecks.check(app); } ``` 2. Using CDK context parameters: ```typescript 3. Environment-specific application: ```typescript const environment = app.node.tryGetContext('environment') || 'development'; if (['production', 'staging'].includes(environment)) { AwsSolutionsChecks.check(stack); } ``` For more information on specific rule packs: - Use resource `cdk-nag://rules/{rule_pack}` to get all rules for a specific pack - Use resource `cdk-nag://warnings/{rule_pack}` to get warnings for a specific pack - Use resource `cdk-nag://errors/{rule_pack}` to get errors for a specific pack |
GenerateBedrockAgentSchema | Generate OpenAPI schema for Bedrock Agent Action Groups from a file. This tool converts a Lambda file with BedrockAgentResolver into a Bedrock-compatible OpenAPI schema. It uses a progressive approach to handle common issues: 1. Direct import of the Lambda file 2. Simplified version with problematic imports commented out 3. Fallback script generation if needed |
GetAwsSolutionsConstructPattern | Search and discover AWS Solutions Constructs patterns. AWS Solutions Constructs are vetted architecture patterns that combine multiple AWS services to solve common use cases following AWS Well-Architected best practices. Key benefits: - Accelerated Development: Implement common patterns without boilerplate code - Best Practices Built-in: Security, reliability, and performance best practices - Reduced Complexity: Simplified interfaces for multi-service architectures - Well-Architected: Patterns follow AWS Well-Architected Framework principles When to use Solutions Constructs: - Implementing common architecture patterns (e.g., API + Lambda + DynamoDB) - You want secure defaults and best practices applied automatically - You need to quickly prototype or build production-ready infrastructure This tool provides metadata about patterns. For complete documentation, use the resource URI returned in the 'documentation_uri' field. |
LambdaLayerDocumentationProvider | Provide documentation sources for Lambda layers. This tool returns information about where to find documentation for Lambda layers and instructs the MCP Client to fetch and process this documentation. |
SearchGenAICDKConstructs | Search for GenAI CDK constructs by name or type. The search is flexible and will match any of your search terms (OR logic). It handles common variations like singular/plural forms and terms with/without spaces. Content is fetched dynamically from GitHub to ensure the most up-to-date documentation. Examples: - "bedrock agent" - Returns all agent-related constructs - "knowledgebase vector" - Returns knowledge base constructs related to vector stores - "agent actiongroups" - Returns action groups for agents - "opensearch vector" - Returns OpenSearch vector constructs The search supports subdirectory content (like knowledge bases and their sections) and will find matches across all available content. |
