Welcome to my blog, where I share my writings as well as my weekly newsletter where I cover all things AWS and open source related. The majority of this blog will be technical, hands on with the occasional leadership piece.
I am always looking for great open source projects to feature and dive deep into, so if you are workingon something you are really excited about, please get in touch and I would love to feature that work within the newsletter or as a dedicated blog post.

AI Scion is an experimental multi-agent orchestration testbed designed to manage concurrent LLM-based agents running in containers across your local machine and remote clusters. It enables developers to run groups of specialized agents with isolated identities, credentials, and workspaces, allowing for a dynamic and evolving graph of parallel execution of tasks such as research, coding, auditing, and testing. - link [tool] - ( Added: 2026-03-28 12:50:21 )

This is what I read about and tried this week.
AI A graph-based tool routing library for LLM agents. Instead of asking your LLM “what tool should I use next?” at every step, Self-Healing Router models your tools as a weighted directed graph and uses Dijkstra’s algorithm for deterministic routing. When a tool fails, edge weights update to infinity and the path recomputes automatically. The LLM is only called as a last resort — when no feasible path exists.

Brooks proved in 1975 that adding more programmers to a late project makes it later because communication overhead grows faster than output.

As we say at AWS, security is our top priority. This is why I have been spending time thinking about how to manage what our agentic AI tools can do. After publishing a previous post on this topic (Getting Kiro CLI to use short lived AWS credentials), this post takes a look at another approach you can take. Vincent reminded me about an awesome open source tool called aws-vault that helps developers move to using short lived, temporary credentials.

Agentic AI tools like Kiro IDE and Kiro CLI are pretty awesome. You provide the right context, the right prompt, and away they will go. After a period of time, you can now review the output.
Early on developers understood the power, but also the potential harm that could be cause (and we began to read stories like this one. Most developer tools now provide capabilities that allow you as a developer to have fine grain control of what they can and more importantly, should never do.
