Anthropic Claude Sonnet 5.5 is available on Amazon Bedrock. The model is described as a smarter, more efficient upgrade from Sonnet 5, stronger for coding and completing well-scoped tasks.[^1]

Amazon Web Services notes the aws-ai-ml skill is compatible with any coding agent that supports the Model Context Protocol. Listed compatible agents include Kiro, Claude Code, and Codex.[^5]

Proof-of-concept attacks have been demonstrated that exploit trust gaps in the Model Context Protocol, a standard for AI agent communication inside internal networks.[^2] Recorded incidents exploiting the protocol occurred between 2025 and 2026.[^3]

Visa has developed a Trusted Agent Protocol designed to provide merchants with verified origin, intent and context for incoming AI agent traffic.[^4]
