Installation

Claude Desktop Setup

Configure Claude Desktop
- Click on Claude > Settings from the Claude Desktop menu.
- When the popup appears, select Developer from the left menu, and click the Edit Settings button.
- This will open a folder containing the settings file. The name of this settings file is:
- claude_desktop_config.json

Add the following content to the settings file (Python version):
- python version
```
"nova-canvas": {
  "command": "uvx",
  "args": [
    "aws-nova-canvas-mcp"
  ],
  "env": {
    "AWS_PROFILE": "YOUR_AWS_PROFILE"
  }
}
```
  ✅ Only AWS_PROFILE is required. Other variables like AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_REGION, and PORT are optional and not necessary if your AWS profile is set correctly.
  
  ⚙️ If the setup is completed successfully, you can see that the "nova-canvas" item has been added in Claude > Settings > Developer tab. ⚠️ Important: MCP settings only work on the Claude desktop app, not the Claude web browser version
