AWS DevOps Agent expands with custom SRE agents and MCP/A2A protocols

Posted on: Jun 15, 2026

AWS DevOps Agent now supports custom SRE agents, bring-your-own sub-agents, and headless access via MCP and A2A protocols. These capabilities enable teams to automate recurring SRE workflows, extend DevOps Agent by connecting it to other agents, and access its capabilities from the tools they already use, including Kiro, Claude, and other coding assistants.

With custom SRE agents, teams can create and schedule agents within Agent Spaces that run on a cadence. For example, create a daily database health report that checks for slow queries and parameters that need tuning, or build an agent that reviews logs from the past 24 hours and flags anomalies. In headless mode, developers can invoke DevOps Agent from the tools and agents they already use via A2A or MCP protocols. For example, the Kiro power for AWS DevOps Agent lets developers check production health and investigate issues without leaving their IDE. Teams can also connect their own sub-agents built with Amazon Bedrock or third-party frameworks via A2A to extend DevOps Agent capabilities.

AWS DevOps Agent also introduces chat enhancements, incident-skip support based on customer-defined rules, enhanced knowledge with memories and Git-managed skills, human labeling and customer-created dashboards for tracking task quality, and is available in five new Regions.
