Deep-dive into Amazon Bedrock AgentCore platform design, service selection, deployment, and production operations. This skill should be used when the user asks to "design an AgentCore architecture", "deploy agents on AgentCore", "configure AgentCore Runtime", "set up AgentCore Memory", "use AgentCore Gateway", "configure AgentCore Identity", "set up AgentCore Policy", "plan agent observability", "evaluate agent quality", "move agent PoC to production", or mentions AgentCore, AgentCore Runtime, AgentCore Memory, AgentCore Gateway, AgentCore Identity, AgentCore Policy, AgentCore Evaluations, AgentCore Code Interpreter, AgentCore Browser, A2A protocol, or multi-agent orchestration on AWS.
Claude Skills are markdown + scripts loaded into Claude Code; scanned with the same pipeline.
We found this by crawling public sources and nobody has attested to it. That is how most of the registry gets here, and it is not a mark against the artifact — it only means no authenticated act of publication is on record. An artifact can be the vendor's own and still appear here.
1 critical finding reported by agent-audit-kit. The composite score alone does not reflect this — read the per-scanner reports below.
Claude Skills install to a single target, no runtime picker.
nerlo install -- 'aws-samples/sample-claude-code-plugins-for-startups (agentcore)'
Manual alternative: copy the skill folder into ~/.claude/skills/ so Claude Code loads it on next launch.
cp -r -- 'aws-samples/sample-claude-code-plugins-for-startups (agentcore)' ~/.claude/skills/
Install respects the composite badge: Clean proceeds, Caution prompts for confirmation, and Flagged is refused. Write operations require an API token.
3 of 11 scanners examined this package. The rest do not apply to it — language, ecosystem and packaging decide which analyzers can say anything, and a scanner that cannot examine an artifact reports nothing rather than passing it.

Findings in files this artifact installs stand as reported; a model re-read the rest and said which ones it believes are false positives. This is a second opinion published beside the evidence, not a correction to it: the per-scanner reports above are unchanged, every dismissed finding is still listed there at its original severity, and the score and the Flagged badge are computed from those raw severities alone. Nothing below moved them.
Out of 98 findings across every scanner that examined this package. None of the 1 finding rated critical by their scanner were dismissed.
These findings are in files this artifact installs and are not placeholder values. No false-positive basis can be corroborated for such a finding, so this review never dismisses one; they were not sent to the model and stand at their scanner's severity.

Critical configuration and marketplace integrity issues identified.
The artifact contains a critical configuration issue within its Multi-Cloud Platform (MCP) settings, located in `plugins/aws-dev-toolkit/.mcp.json`. A high-severity finding indicates a potential integrity or security concern related to its marketplace metadata in `.claude-plugin/marketplace.json`. Additionally, multiple medium-severity findings suggest potential autonomy abuse, privacy concerns, and further MCP-related issues.
Concern level assessed by the review: Critical. This is the review's scale, not the registry badge.
Reviewed by gemini-2.5-flash. The model sees the findings, not your code, and cannot change a score.
