aws-amplify is a plugin in the awslabs/agent-plugins repository that helps AI coding agents build full-stack applications with AWS Amplify Gen 2. It guides development through phased workflows covering backend resource creation, sandbox deployment, frontend integration, and production deployment. The plugin is built around a single skill, amplify-workflow, and an MCP server, aws-mcp, that provides AWS documentation and SOP retrieval. It is installed via Claude Code's plugin marketplace commands, and requires Node.js >= 18, npm, and a configured AWS CLI. The plugin is licensed under Apache-2.0.
Overview
aws-amplify is an agent plugin (not a standalone SaaS) distributed through the awslabs/agent-plugins repository. It packages an agent skill (amplify-workflow) and an MCP server (aws-mcp) so that AI coding agents such as Claude Code can execute phased, SOP-driven workflows for building AWS Amplify Gen 2 applications.
