AWS Support MCP Server: Incorrect uvx command syntax (drafted by Amazon Q Developer)

Describe the issue

Bug Description

The documentation or examples for the AWS Support MCP Server show incorrect uvx command syntax that prevents the server from starting.

Incorrect Syntax (Current)

{
   "mcpServers": {
      "awslabs_support_mcp_server": {
         "command": "uvx",
         "args": [
            "-m", "awslabs.aws-support-mcp-server@latest",
            "--debug",
            "--log-file",
            "./logs/mcp_support_server.log"
         ],
         "env": {
            "AWS_PROFILE": "your-aws-profile"
         }
      }
   }
}

Correct Syntax (Should be)

{
   "mcpServers": {
      "awslabs_support_mcp_server": {
         "command": "uvx",
         "args": [
            "--from", "awslabs.aws-support-mcp-server@latest",
            "awslabs.aws-support-mcp-server",
            "--debug",
            "--log-file",
            "./logs/mcp_support_server.log"
         ],
         "env": {
            "AWS_PROFILE": "your-aws-profile"
         }
      }
   }
}

Issue Details

• uvx doesn't support the -m flag (that's a Python convention) • The correct uvx syntax is uvx --from package@version executable-name • The executable name is awslabs.aws-support-mcp-server, not aws-support-mcp-server

Environment

• uvx version: 0.8.9 • Platform: macOS

Impact

MCP server fails to start with the incorrect syntax, preventing users from using AWS Support API functionality.
