Secret sauce? Dynamic Client Registration makes OAuth automatic.

No manual setup. Claude discovers your server β†’ registers itself β†’ starts using tools. Minutes vs days.

Deploy in ~10 min with production CDK patterns.

Happy building! πŸš€

GitHub - martzmakes/mcp-cdk-lambda-cognito Contribute to martzmakes/mcp-cdk-lambda-cognito development by creating an account on GitHub.

The killer combo: MCP + Serverless = Magic ✨

Traditional servers sit idle 99% of the time. You're paying for nothing.

With serverless MCP, have 100 tool integrations and pay $0 when idle. Scale to zero FTW!

One Client, Two Worlds: Building a Type-Safe API and ReAct Agent Interface with Zod, LangGraph, and AWS In this post, I’ll show you how I built a single TypeScript framework for creating robust, schema-validated API clients that serve both humans and ReAct agents without duplication. Using Zod, AWS Serverless tech, and a sprinkle of LangGraph, this pro...

I wrote a post about a @zod.dev -validated api client that improves DevEx with a type-safe api client that can also be directly integrated into Agentic workflows with @langchain.bsky.social ... Of course it uses AWS CDK and Lambdas...

I just published a new article on how to create a Discord slash command bot using AWS Lambda. The goal? A lightweight, scalable bot that doesn’t require managing servers.

Secure Your Serverless App with Cognito’s Managed Login Pages When you think about user authentication, you might picture wrestling with OAuth flows, wrestling with JWT tokens, or setting up a dozen redirects just to log a user in. But what if you could let AWS handle the heavy lifting for you? Enter Cognito’s ...

Serverless authentication just got interesting. Explore how Cognito + Lambda can transform user management: cookie-based auth, single-domain rendering, and bypassing complex OAuth flows.

When writing typescript, velocity is important. If you slow down to fix every single TS typing error you'll die, just like Maneo in season 3's of The Expanse, episode Delta-V.

I’m also not sure this would be necessary… for a small PDS with a handful of users… if backfilling was only done on demand and a user only subscribes to 1k people (or so)… it wouldn’t be terrible to skip the websockets entirely and just use the backfill endpoints 🧐

In doing my research, I noticed it’d be nice if there was some way to get the Bluesky websocket events emitted as EventBridge events on an AWS account (yes, all of them). Figured that would cost about 12k per month 😬

I did find docs.bsky.app/blog/jetstream though, which could be interesting.

Came across your repo/post while I was researching making a serverless PDS… are you heading to reInvent? Happy to chat about it…

I dont think the outbound transfer charges should be much, unless you (or the users on your PDS) end up creating a boat load of content
