I have a job flow with keep-alive set, on which I want to run several bootstrap actions. One such action is a script that builds and installs Python 3.3.

However the elastic-mapreduce CLI only allows for bootstrap actions to be run during job flow creation.

Is there some way to modify the environment after it's already created?

No, unfortunately bootstrap actions can only be run before Hadoop starts and before the node begins processing data as explained in the bootstrap actions documentation.

Amazon is pretty open regarding new features though, so if you have a solid use case, I would advise to post it on their forums, and they might just turn it into a feature :)
