Agent Skills: kaizen-research

Weekly Friday early-morning external + internal scan for emerging functionality, agentic trends, tools, and feature/UX improvements in the AgentCore Public Stack repo. Tracks AWS Bedrock + AgentCore announcements, Strands Agents releases, FastMCP (used by externally hosted MCP servers), the aws-samples/sample-strands-agent-with-agentcore reference repo, the MCP ecosystem (including MCP Apps + extensions), frontier model announcements, agent-harness patterns (including opencode (anomalyco/opencode) as an open-source coding-agent harness reference scanned through tooling, cost-effectiveness, and context-engineering lenses — releases-first, light touch), agentic UI/UX patterns (MCP Apps, Vercel AI SDK, assistant-ui, NN/g AI research, Linear/Cursor/Anthropic product blogs), and LibreChat as a parallel open-source agentic-platform reference (releases-first, light touch). Audits internal signals (recent commits, open PRs, CI failures, version-pin lag, dormant skills). Outputs a dated research doc + queues ideas in `docs/kaizen/review-queue.md` for that same morning's `kaizen-review-prep` (runs ~2 hours later) to rank into decisions. Opens a PR into `develop`. **Out of scope**: security advisories / Dependabot / CodeQL — those have dedicated tooling and don't need a weekly kaizen lens. Triggers: "kaizen research", "weekly research scan", "external scan", "what should we look at this week".
