aws-transform is an agent plugin from the awslabs/agent-plugins repository that, per its README, brings AWS Transform's assess-plan-transform-validate workflow into AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor. It covers migrating .NET Framework apps to .NET 8/10, mainframe COBOL to Java, VMware VMs to EC2, and SQL Server/Oracle/MySQL databases to Aurora, plus Java/Python/Node.js language and AWS SDK version upgrades and custom user-defined transformations. The README also describes analyzing codebases for tech debt, security issues, and modernization opportunities, then remediating them. Installation is via the agent-plugins marketplace, and prerequisites include the uv tool to launch the bundled MCP server and AWS credentials for AWS Transform (SigV4 or IAM Identity Center). The plugin listing marks its status as "Available" and the project is licensed under Apache-2.0.
