infrawise exposes your actual DynamoDB schemas, GSIs, and PostgreSQL indexes to Claude Code via MCP before code generation, replacing generic patterns with infrastructure-specific queries.
Summary
Claude Code generated a Scan on a 50M-row table, costing 47M read capacity units in 72 hours—the model had no visibility into table size or existing GSIs. infrawise surfaces that context deterministically, preventing costly infrastructure-blind suggestions from reaching production.

Implementation verdict
Replaces ad-hoc schema documentation and post-code-review database fixes. Requires AWS credentials, read-only PostgreSQL user setup (if applicable), and one-time infrawise.yaml generation. Ready now: npm install -g infrawise && infrawise start --claude sets up MCP integration automatically.
