Key features include:
- Command documentation retrieval
- Secure command execution with validation and timeout limits
- Docker integration for easy deployment and isolation
- Support for Unix pipes for filtering and transforming AWS CLI output
- AWS authentication leveraging existing credentials
Use cases:
- Enabling AI assistants to manage and interact with AWS resources.
- Automating AWS tasks through natural language commands.
- Performing security audits and cost optimization using AI-driven insights.
