ChatWithCloud

ChatWithCloud was built around a simple complaint: general AI chat can explain AWS in the abstract, but it cannot see your actual account. ChatWithCloud closes that gap by living inside your terminal. You type a question like "what did I spend last month, by service?" and the tool interprets it, generates the AWS SDK script required to answer it, runs that script locally against your account using your existing ~/.aws profile, and returns a contextual, actionable reply.

Three themes dominate the product: cost, security, and troubleshooting. On the cost side you can surface idle EC2 instances, unattached EBS volumes, and month-over-month spend broken down by service. For security, it helps you audit IAM policies, spot publicly accessible S3 buckets, and list users with admin access but no MFA. For troubleshooting, it can inspect CloudWatch alarms, trace why a Lambda is throwing errors, and suggest or apply fixes such as raising a timeout or stopping instances tagged env=dev.

Architecture matters here. Your AWS credentials are read from the local profile and all AWS calls happen on your own machine; only your questions and the filtered results of those calls go to the AI model used to compose the answer. Because generated code runs without a confirmation step, the vendor recommends starting with a read-only IAM role. The tool works with your own OpenAI key or a fully managed service where model costs are included. It also explicitly states it is not affiliated with Amazon Web Services.
