AWS Bedrock AgentCore Skill

AWS Bedrock AgentCore

Build production-grade AI agents on AWS infrastructure.

Quick Start

import boto3
from agentcore import Agent, Tool

# Initialize AgentCore client
client = boto3.client('bedrock-agent-runtime')

# Define a tool
@Tool(name="search_database", description="Search the product database")
def search_database(query: str, limit: int = 10) -> dict:
    # Tool implementation
    return {"results": [...]}

# Create agent
agent = Agent(
    model_id="anthropic.claude-3-sonnet",
    tools=[search_database],
    instructions="You are a helpful product search assistant."
)

# Invoke agent
response = agent.invoke("Find laptops under $1000")

AgentCore Components

AgentCore provides these primitives:

| Component | Purpose | |-----------|---------| | Runtime | Serverless agent execution (framework-agnostic) | | Gateway | Convert APIs/Lambda to MCP-compatible tools | | Memory | Multi-strategy memory (semantic, user preference) | | Identity | Auth with Cognito, Okta, Google, EntraID | | Tools | Code Interpreter, Browser Tool | | Observability | Deep analysis and tracing |

Lambda Tool Integration

# Lambda function as tool
import json

def lambda_handler(event, context):
    action = event.get('actionGroup')
    function = event.get('function')
    parameters = event.get('parameters', [])
    
    # Parse parameters
    params = {p['name']: p['value'] for p in parameters}
    
    if function == 'get_weather':
        result = get_weather(params['city'])
    elif function == 'book_flight':
        result = book_flight(params['origin'], params['destination'])
    
    return {
        'response': {
            'actionGroup': action,
            'function': function,
            'functionResponse': {
                'responseBody': {
                    'TEXT': {'body': json.dumps(result)}
                }
            }
        }
    }

Agent Orchestration

from agentcore import SupervisorAgent, SubAgent

# Create specialized sub-agents
research_agent = SubAgent(
    name="researcher",
    model_id="anthropic.claude-3-sonnet",
    instructions="You research and gather information."
)

writer_agent = SubAgent(
    name="writer", 
    model_id="anthropic.claude-3-sonnet",
    instructions="You write clear, engaging content."
)

# Create supervisor
supervisor = SupervisorAgent(
    model_id="anthropic.claude-3-opus",
    sub_agents=[research_agent, writer_agent],
    routing_strategy="supervisor"  # or "intent_classification"
)

response = supervisor.invoke("Write a blog post about AI agents")

Guardrails Integration

from agentcore import Agent, Guardrail

# Define guardrail
guardrail = Guardrail(
    guardrail_id="my-guardrail-id",
    guardrail_version="1"
)

agent = Agent(
    model_id="anthropic.claude-3-sonnet",
    guardrails=[guardrail],
    tools=[...],
)

AgentCore Gateway

Convert existing APIs to MCP-compatible tools:

# gateway_setup.py
from bedrock_agentcore import GatewayClient

gateway = GatewayClient()

# Create gateway from OpenAPI spec
gateway.create_target(
    name="my-api",
    type="OPENAPI",
    openapi_spec_path="./api-spec.yaml"
)

# Create gateway from Lambda function
gateway.create_target(
    name="my-lambda-tool",
    type="LAMBDA",
    function_arn="arn:aws:lambda:us-east-1:123456789:function:my-tool"
)

AgentCore Memory

from agentcore import Agent, Memory

# Create memory with multiple strategies
memory = Memory(
    name="customer-support-memory",
    strategies=["semantic", "user_preference"]
)

agent = Agent(
    model_id="anthropic.claude-3-sonnet",
    memory=memory,
    tools=[...],
)

# Memory persists across sessions
response = agent.invoke(
    "What did we discuss last time?",
    session_id="user-123"
)
