Discovering the registry
As a consumer, you can discover MCP servers, agents, skills, and other resources that have been approved and published to the registry. Amazon Agent Registry supports three discovery modes on its data plane — natural-language search, paginated browsing of the approved-record catalog, and bulk retrieval by record ID — plus a Model Context Protocol (MCP) endpoint that MCP-compatible clients can invoke directly. This section covers how to use each mode.
Important
Amazon Agent Registry stores record metadata as publishers provide it and doesn’t verify the packages, repositories, or endpoints that records reference. Before your agent installs, downloads, or connects to anything a record references, validate it against sources you trust. For more information, see Validate record metadata before you act on it.
