How-To How to actually use this
What changed: You can now evaluate whether an agent correctly selects and follows a skill using Strands Evals and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Evaluations.
How to use it:
- Define your domain-specific skill as reusable, portable instructions for your agent.
- Run the agent against a test scenario where the correct skill selection and instruction sequence are known.
- Use Strands Evals to measure whether the agent picked the right skill and followed its steps.
- Use Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Evaluations to get structured feedback on skill adherence.
Good for: developers testing if agents follow defined procedures correctly.
