## Summary

AWS has introduced a new feature in Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, the Consent portal, which simplifies the process of managing user consent for accessing services like GitHub and Slack on behalf of end-users. Previously, customers had to build their own session binding infrastructure using three-legged OAuth (3LO) flow. Now, users can authenticate with their organization's identity provider (IdP), review available services, and grant consent directly through a managed web portal called the Consent portal. This new capability is particularly useful for agents accessed via IDEs like Kiro or Visual Studio Code and MCP clients such as Claude Code. The portal handles browser redirects and session binding while storing tokens in its vault. This release aims to streamline security practices for AI applications, reducing the need for developers to manage complex infrastructure.
