In this post, we demonstrate how you can extend the conversational memory of Kiro CLI by implementing a custom Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that integrates with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Memory. You can use Kiro CLI to interact with AI agents of Kiro directly from your terminal. Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Memory is a fully managed service that allows AI agents to retain information from past interactions, creating more intelligent and context-aware conversations. By implementing a custom MCP server, you can provide Kiro CLI with tools to store and retrieve conversation context, monitor memory usage, and manage the underlying Bedrock Agent Core Memory infrastructure.

In this post, we show three ways to implement Programmatic tool calling (PTC) on Amazon Bedrock: a self-hosted Docker sandbox on ECS for maximum control, a managed solution using Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Code Interpreter, and an Anthropic SDK-compatible path through a proxy for teams that prefer that developer experience.

In this post, you learn how to prompt Amazon Nova 2 Lite for content moderation using structured and free-form approaches, grounded in the MLCommons AILuminate Assessment Standard. The prompting techniques use the AILuminate taxonomy as an example, but they work equally well with your own custom moderation policy. You can swap in your own category definitions and the prompt structure stays the same. We also benchmark the content moderation capabilities of Amazon Nova 2 Lite against several foundation models (FMs) on three public datasets.

In this post, you will learn how to set up the Confluence Cloud integration with Quick. This includes creating a knowledge base for semantic search, setting up Actions to query and manage Confluence pages, and organizing resources in Quick Spaces. Quick integrates with your current enterprise technology stack, from internal knowledge repositories and corporate intranets to business-critical applications and AWS data services.

In this post, you will implement four Lambda-based custom code evaluators for a financial market-intelligence agent, register each with AgentCore, and run them in on-demand and online modes. You will also see how to combine custom code-based evaluators with built-in evaluators and how to call other AWS services for grounded fact-checking, PII detection, and real-time alerting.

In this post, we walk through how to configure document-level ACLs for your S3 knowledge base in Amazon Quick. You will learn how to set up and verify an ACL configuration that enforces document-level permissions across chat and automated workflows.

In this post, you learn how to combine Stream’s Vision Agents open-source framework with Amazon Bedrock and Amazon Nova 2 Sonic to build real-time voice agents that can be production-ready in minutes. You’ll learn how the integration works under the hood, walk through code examples, and explore advanced capabilities like function calling, automatic reconnection, and multilingual voice support.

In this post, you will configure Chrome enterprise policies to restrict a browser agent to a specific website, observe the policy enforcement through session recording, and demonstrate custom root CA certificates using a public test site. The walkthrough produces a working solution that researches Amazon Bedrock AgentCore documentation while operating under enterprise browser restrictions.

This post demonstrates how to build a documentation extraction and model fine-tuning pipeline that addresses challenges when processing the complex financial documents. By combining Pulse AI’s advanced document understanding capabilities with the powerful AI services of Amazon Bedrock, organizations can achieve enterprise-grade accuracy and extract contextually relevant financial insights at scale.

In this post, we demonstrate how to build a secure, complete LLM fine-tuning workflow that integrates Unity Catalog with Amazon SageMaker AI using Amazon EMR Serverless for preprocessing. The solution shows how to securely access governed data, maintain lineage across services, fine-tune the Ministral-3-3B-Instruct model, and register trained artifacts back into Unity Catalog. With this approach, you can continue using your existing services while preserving central governance, tracking data lineage without compromising security or compliance requirements.
