Build custom code-based evaluators in Amazon Bedrock AgentCore
Amazon Bedrock AgentCore now lets you build custom evaluators—here's how to deploy them across financial agents in production.
Why it matters
AWS is expanding Bedrock's agent evaluation capabilities, allowing enterprises to deploy custom code-based validators at scale. This addresses a real production need: ensuring AI agents meet domain-specific safety and accuracy standards before runtime.

Publisher excerpt: In this post, you will implement four Lambda-based custom code evaluators for a financial market-intelligence agent, register each with AgentCore, and run them in on-demand and online modes. You will also see how to combine custom code-based evaluators with built-in evaluators and how to call other…
