        - Key: Environment
          Value: production
        - Key: Project
          Value: my-app
  `,
  stackName: "my-infrastructure-stack"
})

deploy-infrastructure

Deploy CloudFormation templates to AWS. Creates or updates stacks automatically.

Parameters:

• template (required): CloudFormation template content
• stackName (required): Stack name
• parameters (optional): Stack parameters as key-value pairs
• tags (optional): Additional tags for the stack
• region (optional): AWS region (default: us-east-1)

Example:

deploy_infrastructure({
  template: cloudformation_template,
  stackName: "my-app-infrastructure",
  parameters: {
    "Environment": "production",
    "InstanceType": "t3.micro"
  },
  tags: {
    "Project": "my-app",
    "Owner": "team-backend"
  },
  region: "us-west-2"
})

delete-infrastructure

Parameters:

• stackName (required): Name of the stack to delete
• region (optional): AWS region (default: us-east-1)

stack-status

Get the current status and outputs of a CloudFormation stack.

Parameters:

• stackName (required): Name of the stack
• region (optional): AWS region (default: us-east-1)

list-stacks

List all CloudFormation stacks in your AWS account.

Parameters:

• region (optional): AWS region (default: us-east-1)

Deployment History

status

Get the status of your last deployment in this session.

list

List your recent deployments.

Validation Rules

The infrastructure validator checks for:

Security Requirements

• ✅ S3 bucket encryption enabled
• ✅ RDS encryption at rest
• ✅ EBS volume encryption
• ✅ Lambda environment variable encryption
• ✅ DynamoDB encryption at rest
• ✅ Proper VPC security group configurations

Tagging Requirements

• ✅ All resources have required tags: Environment, Project, Owner
• ✅ Consistent tagging across resources

Compliance Rules

• ✅ Public access prevention
• ✅ Secure default configurations
• ✅ Resource naming conventions
• ✅ IAM least privilege principles

Complete Workflow Example

Here's how to deploy a full-stack application:

1. Validate Infrastructure

// First, validate your CloudFormation template
validate_infrastructure({
  template: your_cloudformation_template,
  stackName: "my-app-backend"
})

2. Deploy Infrastructure

// Deploy your AWS resources
deploy_infrastructure({
  template: your_cloudformation_template,
  stackName: "my-app-backend",
  parameters: {
    "Environment": "production"
  },
  tags: {
    "Project": "my-app",
    "Owner": "backend-team"
  }
})

3. Build and Deploy Frontend

// Build your React/Next.js app first (if needed)
// Then deploy the frontend
deploy({
  directory: "/path/to/my-frontend-app",
  outputDir: "build",
  projectName: "my-app-frontend"
})

4. Monitor Status

// Check your infrastructure status
stack_status({
  stackName: "my-app-backend"
})

// Check deployment status
status()

Configuration

MCP Configuration

Add to your MCP settings:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-deployment": {
      "command": "mcp-deployment",
      "env": {
        "MCP_DEPLOYMENT_API_ENDPOINT": "https://api.example.com/dev",
        "MCP_DEPLOYMENT_API_KEY": "your-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}

AWS Regions

Supported AWS regions:

• us-east-1 (default)
• us-west-2
• eu-west-1
• ap-southeast-1
• And all other AWS regions

Troubleshooting

AWS Credentials Issues

If you get credential errors:

1. Check AWS credentials setup:

   aws sts get-caller-identity

2. Verify IAM permissions - Your AWS user/role needs:

   • cloudformation:*
   • s3:*
   • iam:PassRole
   • Other service permissions based on your template

3. Regional access - Ensure you have permissions in the target region

Template Validation Failures

• Fix all validation errors before deployment
• Ensure all resources have required tags
• Enable encryption for data storage resources
• Follow AWS security best practices

Stack Deployment Issues

• Check CloudFormation events in AWS Console
• Review stack parameters and template syntax
• Ensure IAM capabilities are granted if needed
• Verify resource limits and quotas
