What you can do with AWS CloudFront

Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.

Most endpoints run on the free plan. A few, mainly the ones that publish on your behalf, need a paid plan.

Function, 6 operations

create_functionCreate functionPOSTCreate a CloudFront Function (lightweight JavaScript function) for viewer request/response manipulation at edge locations
delete_functionDelete functionDELETEDelete a CloudFront Function. It must not be associated with any distribution
get_functionGet functionGETGet the code and metadata of a CloudFront Function
list_functionsList functionsGETList all CloudFront Functions in the account
publish_functionPublish functionPOSTPublish a CloudFront Function from DEVELOPMENT to LIVE stage, making it available for association with distributions
update_functionUpdate functionPUTUpdate the code or configuration of a CloudFront Function

Cache policy, 5 operations

create_cache_policyCreate cache policyPOSTCreate a cache policy defining what CloudFront includes in the cache key and TTL settings
delete_cache_policyDelete cache policyDELETEDelete a custom cache policy. It must not be attached to any cache behavior
get_cache_policyGet cache policyGETGet the configuration of a specific cache policy
list_cache_policiesList cache policiesGETList all cache policies (managed and custom) available in the account
update_cache_policyUpdate cache policyPUTUpdate an existing cache policy configuration

Distribution, 5 operations

create_distributionCreate distributionPOSTCreate a new CloudFront distribution with specified origins, cache behaviors, and settings
delete_distributionDelete distributionDELETEDelete a CloudFront distribution. The distribution must be disabled and deployed before deletion. Requires current ETag via If-Match header
get_distributionGet distributionGETGet detailed information about a specific CloudFront distribution including configuration, status, and ETag
list_distributionsList distributionsGETList all CloudFront distributions in the account. Returns paginated list with distribution IDs, domain names, status, and aliases
update_distributionUpdate distributionPUTUpdate the configuration of an existing CloudFront distribution. Requires current ETag via If-Match header

Origin access control, 5 operations

create_origin_access_controlCreate origin access controlPOSTCreate a new origin access control (OAC) for securing S3 or other origins
delete_origin_access_controlDelete origin access controlDELETEDelete an origin access control. It must not be associated with any distribution
get_origin_access_controlGet origin access controlGETGet details of a specific origin access control
list_origin_access_controlsList origin access controlsGETList all origin access controls (OAC) in the account used to authenticate CloudFront requests to origins
update_origin_access_controlUpdate origin access controlPUTUpdate an existing origin access control configuration

Invalidation, 3 operations

create_invalidationCreate invalidationPOSTCreate an invalidation to remove objects from CloudFront edge caches before their TTL expires
get_invalidationGet invalidationGETGet the status and details of an invalidation request
list_invalidationsList invalidationsGETList all invalidations for a distribution, paginated

Key value store, 2 operations

Use AWS CloudFront from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex

Connect AWS CloudFront in LiveContext, create an API key in Settings, then add the LiveContext MCP server to your client. Its AWS CloudFront operations become tools the client can call, next to every other integration you connected.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http livecontext https://livecontext.ai/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Codex (~/.codex/config.toml)

[mcp_servers.livecontext]
url = "https://livecontext.ai/mcp"

[mcp_servers.livecontext.http_headers]
"X-API-Key" = "YOUR_API_KEY"

Cursor, Claude Desktop and other JSON configs

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "livecontext": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://livecontext.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Set up the MCP server step by step

How to connect AWS CloudFront

Create your workspace
Sign up free. Nothing to install.
Connect AWS CloudFront once
Add your AWS CloudFront connection in Settings. Every tool from this integration reuses it, and secrets are encrypted at rest and visible only to you.
Describe the job in chat
The workflow builds itself in front of you and picks the endpoints it needs. Drag the steps yourself on the canvas whenever you would rather be explicit.
