Cloud Audit MCP Server
Find AWS attack paths, IAM escalation routes, and the fixes that matter most. Open-source, read-only AWS security scanner. It correlates findings into attack chains, ranks fixes by how many chains they break, and ships an AWS CLI + Terraform fix with every finding . No agent, no infrastructure, nothing written to your account. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.
People connecting cloud infrastructure tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.
