```shell
aws-vault exec --prompt ykman ${AWS_VAULT_PROFILE_USING_MFA} -- aws s3 ls
```

An alternative to manually supplying the prompt driver as a CLI argument to `aws-vault` is setting the [`mfa_process`](#mfa_process) parameter in your `.aws/config` for the profiles that should use a YubiKey to generate tokens. Example:

(Note: Remember to swap out the name of the OATH account used in `mfa_process` below with the name you gave it during [YubiKey setup](#setup))

```ini
[profile jon]
mfa_serial = arn:aws:iam::123456789012:mfa/jonsmith
mfa_process = ykman oath accounts code --single arn:aws:iam::123456789012:mfa/jonsmith
```

Further config:
- `AWS_VAULT_PROMPT=ykman`: to avoid specifying `--prompt` each time
- `YKMAN_OATH_CREDENTIAL_NAME`: to use an alternative ykman credential
