a9s
Terminal UI for AWS — like k9s, but for your cloud
Browse, inspect, and manage 62 AWS resource types from your terminal. Read-only by design. No telemetry.
- "Why is this target unhealthy?" — drill LB → TG → Health in seconds
- "Is my deployment stuck?" — ECS events, tasks, logs in one flow
- "Which security groups are wide open?" — spot 0.0.0.0/0 instantly
- "What changed in this stack?" — CFN events and resources, no console needed

Read-Only by Design
a9s never makes write calls to AWS. Safe to use in production environments. Enforced by CI.
Vim-Style Navigation
j/k to move, Enter to open, Esc to go back, / to filter. Feels like home.
62 Resource Types
EC2, S3, RDS, Lambda, EKS, DynamoDB, SQS, IAM, VPC, and 50+ more. Organized by category.
YAML Detail View
Press y on any resource to see the full AWS API response as formatted YAML.
Multi-Profile & Region
Switch AWS profiles and regions on the fly. Works with SSO and standard credentials.
No Credential Access
Never reads ~/.aws/credentials. Authentication delegated to AWS SDK. Try with --demo, no AWS account needed.
