Localstack Mcp Server
If you're running LocalStack for local AWS development, this lets Claude control the entire workflow without leaving the conversation. Start and stop containers, deploy CDK/Terraform/SAM projects, parse logs for errors, auto-generate IAM policies from access violations, inject chaos faults for resilience testing, and manage Cloud Pods for state snapshots. It also handles LocalStack Extensions, Ephemeral Instances, and the AWS Replicator for pulling in external resources. Most features require a LocalStack auth token. Think of it as turning your AI into a LocalStack operator that can troubleshoot deployments, analyze traces, and run infrastructure validation workflows on demand.
