AWS has launched Strands Harness, an open-source, Apache 2.0 licensed framework for building multi-model AI agents supporting Amazon Bedrock, Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, and local models. It features built-in context and token management controls to reduce inference costs, reports 28% lower token usage than comparable tools, and supports portable deployment across Linux containers including Amazon ECS, Google Cloud Run, and Cloudflare Containers.
