Infrawise

Infrawise gives AI coding assistants deterministic infrastructure awareness.

It statically analyzes your codebase, cloud infrastructure, and database schemas, then exposes that context through MCP so tools like Claude Code can understand your actual tables, indexes, query patterns, and service relationships instead of guessing from source files alone.

Why this exists

New software developers don't write wrong code. Claude Code writes wrong code and they ship it. Infrawise is the only thing standing between Claude Code's generated output and a production incident.

AI coding assistants can read your source files but have no deterministic knowledge of your infrastructure. They do not know which GSIs exist, how tables are partitioned, which functions already trigger scans, or where indexes are missing. So they guess.

Infrawise replaces guessing with infrastructure-aware context.

Without Infrawise, an AI assistant might:

• Suggest a .scan() on your Orders table that has 50M rows
• Recommend adding a GSI on status that you already have
• Write a SELECT * when you need to keep query cost low
• Not notice that 5 functions are already hammering the same partition key

With Infrawise, it knows:

• Your exact table schemas, partition keys, sort keys, and GSIs
• Which functions query which tables and how
• Which patterns are already flagged as high severity
• The exact CREATE INDEX SQL or GSI config for your tables — not generic advice

What Infrawise is not

Infrawise is not an AI agent framework, an infrastructure provisioning tool, an observability platform, or a cloud management dashboard.

It is a deterministic infrastructure intelligence layer for AI-assisted development.

Installation

npm install -g infrawise

or use without installing:

npx infrawise start --claude

Quick start

cd your-project
infrawise start --claude

That's it. Infrawise will:

1. Probe your environment and generate infrawise.yaml (first time only — asks which AWS profile to use only if you have several)
2. Scan your AWS services, databases, and codebase
3. Write .mcp.json so your editor auto-connects on every future launch
4. Open Claude Code with all 21 MCP tools ready

Every time after:

claude    # no infrawise command needed — editor manages the connection

Analysis is cached for 24 hours. When the cache is stale, infrawise serve --stdio (spawned automatically by your editor) refreshes it at session start. File changes are detected within the session and the code graph is updated automatically.

Findings (3 total)

1. [HIGH] Full table scan detected on DynamoDB table "Orders"
   listAllOrders() scans without any filter — reads every item in the table.
   Recommendation: Replace Scan with Query using a partition key or add a GSI.

2. [MEDIUM] PostgreSQL table "users" has no index on column "email"
   Filtering on "email" causes sequential scans.
   Recommendation: CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY idx_users_email ON users(email);

3. [MEDIUM] DynamoDB table "Sessions" accessed by 6 distinct code paths
   High access concentration may create hot partition issues at scale.

Using with AI coding assistants

Claude Code (recommended)

infrawise start --claude

Writes .mcp.json to your project root and opens Claude Code. Claude Code reads .mcp.json automatically on every launch and manages the infrawise serve --stdio process — no server to start, no ports to configure.

Cursor

infrawise start --cursor

Writes .cursor/mcp.json and opens Cursor. All 21 infrawise tools are available in Cursor's MCP panel.

VS Code

infrawise start --vscode

Writes .vscode/mcp.json (merging with any existing MCP servers) and opens VS Code. The tools are available to Copilot agent mode via the MCP servers panel.

Any editor (no flag)

infrawise start

Writes .mcp.json and exits. Open whichever editor you prefer — point it at infrawise serve --stdio --config /path/to/infrawise.yaml as an MCP server command.

HTTP transport (alternative)

If your editor or workflow requires an HTTP MCP endpoint instead of stdio:

infrawise serve    # starts server at http://localhost:3000/mcp

Add to your editor's MCP config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "infrawise": {
      "url": "http://localhost:3000/mcp"
    }
  }
}
