The AWS MCP Server preview now publishes usage and error metrics to Amazon CloudWatch under the AWS-MCP namespace, enabling customers to monitor invocation counts, success rates, and failure types for AI assistant tools. This visibility aids in diagnosing permission issues and setting operational alarms.

Moreover, semantic similarity search was integrated to return relevant Agent SOPs—pre-built AI workflows—alongside documentation, allowing AI assistants to more effectively find guided procedures through natural language queries, facilitating more efficient multi-step task completion on AWS.
