Dell Technologies said its competitive advantage with AI agents comes from codifying internal company knowledge into agents, not from using specific AI models. It reported spending close to two years running fully autonomous agents inside its own business. Dell’s advice is that companies must change their operating model and keep proprietary knowledge in-house when adopting agents to avoid simply applying automation to the same workflows.

Smartsheet launched a generally available MCP Server so AI assistants can use a standardized protocol to read, write, and manage Smartsheet work-management data through 40+ tools. The server is offered at a Commercial US endpoint (https://mcp.smartsheet.com) and uses Streamable HTTP with MCP spec versions 2025-06-18 and 2025-03-26. Teams can now connect Smartsheet to Amazon Quick and Kiro so agents can update task statuses and project structure via natural language (or code workflow hooks) using live Smartsheet data instead of generating reports in separate tools.

Amazon Bedrock AgentCore and Amazon Quick were presented as a setup that lets supply chain teams ask conversational questions and have AgentCore orchestrate MCP tool calls across live ERP and other systems to reach an approved action. The example walkthrough shows a process that takes “45–60 minutes across five systems” down to “three prompts” handled “in minutes,” with one concrete impact result including “$750K at risk” and “three days of supply.” The change is that managers get consolidated, cross-system answers and recommendations in chat and the Activity Feed, with tool calls gated for named human approval instead of manual stitching and context switching.

Engineering teams using AI to write software are finding the SDLC bottleneck has shifted from coding to later testing stages that still require test creation and maintenance. Datadog bought Propolis earlier this year and says its approach can generate agent-written, goal- and output-oriented tests, while reporters note Anthropic engineers are shipping 8 times as much code as before. As a result, platforms like Datadog are moving testing from mostly human-written scripts toward AI-driven test generation tied to observability data like logs and traces.

AWS Agent Registry was used with a refactored Python sample to let an orchestrator discover model-context protocol (MCP) servers and agent-to-agent (A2A) agents at runtime instead of hardcoding tool endpoints. The sample configures a cross-Region Amazon Bedrock model ID using Anthropic Claude Sonnet. This changes deployments by requiring new tools/agents to be registered and approved in the registry before the orchestrator can use them, avoiding orchestrator code changes and redeploys.

Faros AI’s new report and the article’s proposed “decision review” approach say AI reviews are increasingly merging PRs without human line-by-line review, while the human debate over what was decided and why is still missing. The report found a 76.3% increase in pull requests merged without review since the prior April report, and the article adds that many companies already run AI reviews on 50% to 80% of PRs. Review shifts from checking code lines to recording intent, acceptance criteria, and debated decisions (with humans owning unresolved trade-offs), so teams retain accountability and shared context without reading every line of AI-written code.

Strategy Mosaic integrated with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore so a Strands agent can answer customer-360 questions by querying Mosaic’s semantic layer over linked Amazon Redshift and Amazon Aurora models. The setup is based on Strategy One from March 2026, when Mosaic access through the MCP server became available by default. Queries are planned into per-source SQL with joins and metric definitions executed inside Mosaic (not the agent prompt), with OAuth token identity passed end-to-end so row- and object-level security applies per user.

AtScale, AWS Bedrock AgentCore, and a Strands agent were used to implement a Customer 360 semantic-layer pattern on AWS with AtScale as the semantic model instead of a graph or data-virtualization approach. The walkthrough is based on the AtScale C2026.7 release. The agent now plans and runs dimensional queries with the joins and metric definitions enforced inside the semantic layer, exposing the model over SQL, XMLA, and MCP with identity-driven row-level access control.

The author analyzed 18 days of Cloudflare logs, plus MCP telemetry, to see which “AI-friendly” website files were actually fetched by different bot types. ClaudeBot fetched the sitemap 122 times in that period (30 September to 17 October 2026), while no verified AI or search crawler fetched llms.txt in 17 days. The findings shift attention from extra AI-specific files toward making the main page content readable and correctly rendered, with robots.txt/sitemaps helping mainly with indexing and change detection rather than AI citation or training.

OpenAI’s newest models are getting a new home in plain sight: starting soon, GPT-6 Astra will be available on Google Cloud via Alphabet’s Model Garden, alongside smaller GPT-6.1 Sol and GPT-6 Luna variants. OpenAI’s pricing is the headline economics—Astra sits at one price point, with Sol and Luna coming in at roughly 5× and 100× less per token—while the deployment options underline why this matters to enterprises. Google customers will also be able to run the models on Confidential Compute later, and route them through offerings like Antigravity and Gemini Agent, turning “access to a model” into something closer to an operations workflow.
