Add AWS KB Retrieval Tool to AI Agent

​
Quick Start

1

Install Dependencies

Make sure you have Node.js installed, as the MCP server requires it:
pip install praisonaiagents mcp
2

Set API Keys

Set your AWS credentials as environment variables in your terminal:
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=your_aws_access_key_id_here
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=your_aws_secret_access_key_here
export AWS_REGION=your_aws_region_here
export OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_api_key_here
3

Create a file

Create a new file aws_kb_retrieval.py with the following code:
from praisonaiagents import Agent, MCP
import os

# Get AWS credentials from environment
aws_access_key = os.getenv("AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID")
aws_secret_key = os.getenv("AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY")
aws_region = os.getenv("AWS_REGION")

# Use a single string command with AWS KB Retrieval configuration
aws_kb_agent = Agent(
    instructions="""You are a helpful assistant that can interact with AWS Knowledge Base.
    Use the available tools when relevant to retrieve and process AWS information.""",
    llm="gpt-4o-mini",
    tools=MCP("npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/server-aws-kb-retrieval",
            env={
                "AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID": aws_access_key,
                "AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY": aws_secret_key,
                "AWS_REGION": aws_region
            })
)

aws_kb_agent.start("Search AWS documentation about EC2 instances")
