Summary of PR Review
I've reviewed PR #280 which adds a default .devcontainer/devcontainer.json file to enable easier development environment setup for the MCP project.
What's Being Added
The PR adds a single file:
.devcontainer/devcontainer.json: Default development container configuration for VS Code
Analysis
This PR adds essential dev container configuration to help developers get started quickly with a consistent environment. The dev container is based on Microsoft's universal development container image and includes:
- Language support for Python, TypeScript, Ruby, Rust, and Terraform
- VSCode extensions for Docker, Claude dev, AWS services, Python tools, and GitHub integration
- Automated setup for development tools (uv, pre-commit, detect-secrets)
- Host requirements specification (4 CPUs minimum)
Code Quality Issues
The pre-commit check is failing due to JSON formatting issues in the devcontainer.json file. The JSON properties need to be reordered alphabetically to match the project's formatting standards. This is a minor issue that can be fixed easily.
Impact Analysis
This addition will be beneficial for:
- New contributors who want to get started quickly
- Ensuring consistent development environments across the team
- Simplifying the onboarding process described in the DEVELOPER_GUIDE.md
Conclusion
This PR adds valuable infrastructure for development but requires a minor formatting fix before it can be merged. The change is non-breaking and aligns well with the project's goal of simplifying contributions.
Recommendation
Fix the JSON formatting issue by reordering properties alphabetically as shown in the pre-commit failure log, then this PR should be good to merge.

Final Review Assessment
I'm requesting changes on this PR due to the JSON formatting issues identified by the pre-commit checks.
The PR itself adds valuable dev container configuration to the project, which will help simplify the development environment setup process. However, the JSON formatting in the devcontainer.json file needs to be fixed to match the project's standards.
Required Changes
Please reorder the JSON properties in the devcontainer.json file alphabetically as shown in the pre-commit error log. Specifically:
-
The order should follow this structure:
- "customizations"
- "features"
- "hostRequirements"
- "image"
- "postCreateCommand"
-
Within the "features" object, the properties should also be ordered alphabetically.
Once this formatting issue is fixed, the PR will be ready for approval.

PR #280 Review: Default Dev Container
I've reviewed the pull request adding a default dev container configuration to the MCP project. This change adds a .devcontainer/devcontainer.json file that will help streamline the development setup process.
Overview of Changes
The PR adds a development container configuration that:
- Uses Microsoft's universal development container image as a base
- Includes support for multiple languages (Python, TypeScript, Ruby, Rust, Terraform)
- Configures VS Code extensions for AWS development tools, Python, and GitHub integration
- Sets up post-creation commands to install development dependencies (uv, pre-commit, detect-secrets)
- Specifies minimum system requirements (4 CPUs)
Findings
This addition aligns with the project's development guide and will make it easier for new contributors to get started with the correct development environment. It addresses a gap mentioned in the DEVELOPER_GUIDE.md where it states "At the moment, there is no dedicated development container."
The implementation covers all the required development tools mentioned in the guides and adds appropriate extensions to support AWS development workflows.
Issue with Current Implementation
As previously noted, the pre-commit check is failing due to JSON formatting issues. The JSON properties need to be ordered alphabetically according to the project's conventions.

devcontainer.json Review
This PR adds a devcontainer.json file to the project which is a valuable addition that provides a consistent development environment for contributors.
Positive Aspects
- The container includes all necessary tools (Python, Terraform, uv, pre-commit, etc.)
- Appropriate VS Code extensions are included for AWS, Python, and GitHub
- Host requirements are specified (4 CPUs minimum)
- Universal container image is used as the base
- All CI checks are passing
Issues to Address
- The post-creation command contains an error:
pip install -y uvshould bepip install uv(pip doesn't use the -y flag) - Documentation updates are needed:
- DEVELOPER_GUIDE.md states 'there is no dedicated development container' - this should be updated
- README.md should mention the dev container option
- Instructions for using the dev container should be added
Recommendation
This PR should be improved with the documentation updates and fix for the pip command before merging.
