Overview

DynamoDB MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol server designed for managing Amazon DynamoDB resources, providing tools for table management, capacity management, and data operations.

To use the server, install the dependencies, configure your AWS credentials, build the server, and start it. You can then interact with the server using various commands to manage your DynamoDB resources.

  • Table Management: Create, list, and configure DynamoDB tables. - Index Management: Create and manage Global and Local Secondary Indexes. - Capacity Management: Update provisioned read/write capacity units. - Data Operations: Insert, retrieve, update, query, and scan items in tables.
  1. Creating and managing DynamoDB tables for applications.
  2. Scaling table capacity based on application needs.
  3. Performing CRUD operations on DynamoDB items.

Use these steps to connect DynamoDB MCP Server in Cursor, Claude, VS Code, and other MCP-compatible apps. The same JSON appears in the Use with menu above for one-click copy.

Cursor

Add this to your .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root, then restart Cursor.

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dynamodb-mcp-server-imankamyabi": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-dynamodb-mcp-server-imankamyabi"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop

Add this server entry to the mcpServers object in your Claude Desktop config, then restart the app.

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dynamodb-mcp-server-imankamyabi": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-dynamodb-mcp-server-imankamyabi"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

Add this to your project's .mcp.json file. Claude Code will detect it automatically.

.mcp.json (project root)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dynamodb-mcp-server-imankamyabi": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-dynamodb-mcp-server-imankamyabi"
      ]
    }
  }
}

VS Code (Copilot)

Add this to your .vscode/mcp.json file. Requires the GitHub Copilot extension with MCP support enabled.

.vscode/mcp.json

{
  "servers": {
    "dynamodb-mcp-server-imankamyabi": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-dynamodb-mcp-server-imankamyabi"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Add this to your Windsurf MCP config file, then restart Windsurf.

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dynamodb-mcp-server-imankamyabi": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-dynamodb-mcp-server-imankamyabi"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Cline

Open Cline settings, navigate to MCP Servers, and add this server configuration.

Cline MCP Settings (via UI)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dynamodb-mcp-server-imankamyabi": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-dynamodb-mcp-server-imankamyabi"
      ]
    }
  }
}
