AWS launches Agent Registry for runtime discovery of MCP tools and agents
AWS introduced Agent Registry, a managed catalog service for Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, agents, and agent skills. Instead of hardcoding every tool into an orchestrator, agents can now search an approved, versioned catalog at runtime and build a client from the returned descriptor. A reference sample demonstrates a Discover → Instantiate → Execute loop using Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Gateway and AgentCore runtime, with Anthropic Claude Sonnet as the foundation model.
