AWS Agent Registry, a centralized catalog for agents and related resources, added support for custom metadata fields that organizations can define to include attributes like team ownership and data classification. A schema can be set once per registry and extended for different resource types, with validation ensuring metadata compliance on record creation and updates.

Users benefit from improved search and governance through filtering capabilities on custom metadata fields via multiple interfaces including AWS Console and CLI. This feature is deployed across major AWS Regions and aids large organizations in managing hundreds of agents and associated components systematically.
