This article announces extended Model Context Protocol (MCP) support for Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Gateway, enabling enterprise-grade MCP deployments with centralized governance and control.

  • Extended MCP tool schema support with output definitions and behavioral annotations
  • MCP prompts and resources now available as first-class primitives
  • Dynamic listing for runtime discovery of MCP servers based on user identity
  • Streaming HTTP support for real-time progress updates during tool execution
  • Session management for stateful multi-turn workflows across tool invocations
  • Elicitation support for mid-execution user approval and input collection
  • OAuth 2.0 on-behalf-of token exchange for zero-trust identity propagation
  • Centralized credential management, observability, and security enforcement

AgentCore Gateway provides a single managed endpoint aggregating MCP capabilities across an organization, eliminating duplicate infrastructure burden while enabling fine-grained access control and compliance requirements.
