This article demonstrates how to add agentic AI capabilities to legacy applications without modifying source code using Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Gateway and Kiro powers.
- AgentCore Gateway converts REST APIs to MCP-compatible tools automatically from OpenAPI specs
- Gateway acts as MCP server, eliminating custom code for API-to-MCP conversion
- Kiro powers provide domain-specific guidance for building AI agents deterministically
- Strands Agent SDK used to create terminal-based AI agent as MCP client
- Authentication managed via Cognito OAuth tokens between agent and Gateway
- Pattern enables "Move to AI" modernization without infrastructure management
- Next steps include deploying to AgentCore Runtime, adding memory, and observability
This approach allows organizations to unlock AI capabilities in existing applications through a managed, code-free integration layer.
