## Overview

This guide helps you configure AWS MCP tools for AI agents. Two options are available:

| **AWS Documentation MCP** | None | Documentation search only |

- `mcp__*awsdocs*__aws___*` → AWS Documentation MCP configured

**How to check**: Run `/mcp` command to list all active MCP servers.

| Scope | File Location | Use Case |
|-------|---------------|----------|
