LangChain Agent on Bedrock
Table of Contents
Overview:
This post provides a comprehensive technical walkthrough for constructing LangChain agents on AWS Bedrock using uv package management and foundation models such as Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, and Google Gemma via the Bedrock Converse API. It compares lightweight ReAct agents ( create_agent ) designed for single-purpose tasks against feature-rich deep agents ( create_deep_agent ). Furthermore, the guide details short-term memory checkpoints and demonstrates optimizing Model Context Protocol (MCP) tool execution via "Code Mode", presenting tools as sandbox-executed code wrappers to preserve data privacy, enable control loops, and decrease token waste by up to 98.7%.

Agent vs Deep Agent
They aren’t competing things; they’re two layers of the same stack. LangGraph is the graph runtime. LangChain’s create_agent is a minimal agent harness on top of it. Deep Agents1 is a more opinionated harness on top of create_agent — same building blocks, but with filesystem, sub-agents, context management, and skills bundled in.
LangChain Agent (create_agent)
- Runs a fixed ReAct cycle (think → tool → execute → observe → think) and requires only a model name and a list of tools.
- You add behaviour through middleware, and the middleware parameter is a complete replacement: only the middleware you specify is used, nothing is added automatically like in
create_deep_agent, so if you needTodoListMiddlewareyou must add it explicitly. - Good for short, focused tasks: a support bot calling a few tools, a structured-output extractor, etc.
Deep Agent (create_deep_agent, from the deepagents package)
- The same core tool-calling loop everyone hand-rolls, but with the planner, the filesystem, the subagents, and the sensible defaults built in.
- Out of the box you get a todo/planning tool, a virtual filesystem (
read_file,write_file,edit_file…), atasktool for spawning subagents, context summarisation for long runs, skills, and memory. For memory, MemoryMiddleware loads AGENTS.md files into the system prompt at agent startup, and the agent can update its own memory files that persist across threads. - It is model-agnostic and backend-pluggable, so the filesystem can be in-state, a persistent store, or a real sandbox.
- Good for long-horizon work — research, coding, multi-step analysis — where the agent needs to plan, offload context to files, and delegate.
Use Deep Agents when you want the full harness — planning, context management, delegation — out of the box. Use LangChain’s
create_agentwhen you want a lighter harness without the bundled middleware. Drop to LangGraph when the agent loop itself isn’t the right shape and you need a custom graph. A sensible middle ground is to usecreate_agentand pull in just the Deep Agents middleware you need (e.g.FilesystemMiddleware) without the subagent overhead.
Initialise and invoke agent:
from langchain.agents import create_agent
agent = create_agent(model=model)

Let’s simulate the conversation using the AIMessage:
from langchain.messages import AIMessage
response = agent.invoke(
{'messages': [HumanMessage(content="What is the capital of Australia?"),
AIMessage(content="The capital of the Canberra"),
HumanMessage(content="Then, why Sydney is most popular?")
]}
)
pprint(response)
{'messages': [HumanMessage(content='What is the capital of Australia?', additional_kwargs={}, response_metadata={}, id='b4081e27-087f-4cdc-9730-2f0ff620189f'),
AIMessage(content='The capital of the Canberra', additional_kwargs={}, response_metadata={}, id='8deaa254-c474-4546-8968-0751396a1669', tool_calls=[], invalid_tool_calls=[]),
HumanMessage(content='Then, why Sydney is most popular?', additional_kwargs={}, response_metadata={}, id='e7886218-5827-4603-b342-1e537cec3592'),
AIMessage(content="You're right to ask that! It's a common point of confusion. Here's why Sydney is so popular despite Canberra being the capital:\n\n* **Historical Reasons:** Initially, after Federation in 1901, there was a dispute between Sydney and Melbourne about which city should be the capital. To avoid choosing either, a neutral site was selected – Canberra. Sydney was already a very established and large city at the time, and had served as the seat of government for the colony of New South Wales.\n* **Size & Population:** Sydney is by far the largest city in Australia, both in terms of population and geographic size. It’s simply a major hub.\n* **Economic Importance:** Sydney is a major financial and economic center, attracting businesses and investment.\n* **Cultural and Tourist Appeal:** Sydney boasts iconic landmarks like the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge, beautiful beaches, a vibrant arts scene, and a generally appealing lifestyle. It's a popular tourist destination.\n* **Recognition & Branding:** Due to its prominence over the years, Sydney is often the first place people think of when they think of Australia, even though it's not the capital.\n\n\n\n**Essentially, Canberra is the *political* center, while Sydney is a *major urban, cultural, and economic* center.**", additional_kwargs={}, response_metadata={'ResponseMetadata': {'RequestId': 'a7508a4b-6d28-4cc9-bff0-03b841d8844c', 'HTTPStatusCode': 200, 'HTTPHeaders': {'date': 'Fri, 06 Nov 2026 23:34:32 GMT', 'content-type': 'application/json', 'content-length': '1506', 'connection': 'keep-alive', 'x-amzn-requestid': 'a7508a4b-6d28-4cc9-bff0-03b841d8844c'}, 'RetryAttempts': 0}, 'stopReason': 'end_turn', 'metrics': {'latencyMs': [7689]}, 'model_provider': 'bedrock_converse', 'model_name': 'google.gemma-3-12b-it'}, id='lc_run--01a1b336-a3c4-755d-9166-0d7e2d2625f8-0', tool_calls=[], invalid_tool_calls=[], usage_metadata={'input_tokens': 39, 'output_tokens': 275, 'total_tokens': 314, 'input_token_details': {'cache_creation': 0, 'cache_read': 0}})]}
To avoid the latency, you can use streaming:
for token, metadata in agent.stream(
{'messages': [HumanMessage(content="What is the capital of Australia?"),
AIMessage(content="The capital of the Canberra"),
HumanMessage(content="Then, why Sydney is most popular?")
]},
stream_mode="messages"
):
if token.content:
print(token.content, end="", flush=True)
You've hit on a really common question! It's true that Sydney is far more well-known internationally and often comes to mind when people think of Australia. Here's why, despite Canberra being the official capital:
* **Historical Reasons:** Initially, after federation, there was disagreement about which city should be the capital. Melbourne and Sydney were the two biggest contenders. To settle the argument, a new city, Canberra, was purpose-built as a compromise.
* **Larger Population & Economy:** Sydney is Australia's largest city and has a much larger population than Canberra. It's a major economic hub, a global financial center, and a significant port.
* **Iconic Landmarks:** Sydney boasts world-famous landmarks like the Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge. These are instantly recognizable and heavily promoted in tourism marketing, making Sydney synonymous with Australia in the global imagination.
* **Lifestyle & Culture:** Sydney is known for its beaches, vibrant culture, diverse population, and outdoor lifestyle. This makes it a more appealing destination for tourists.
* **Media & Representation:** Sydney is a major media hub, and often features prominently in films, TV shows, and other media portraying Australia.
Essentially, while Canberra is the seat of government, Sydney has become the face of Australia for many people around the world.
To generate structured output, you can use pydantic:
from pydantic import BaseModel
class CityInfo(BaseModel):
name: str
country: str
agent = create_agent(model=model,
system_prompt="You are a explore",response_format=CityInfo)
question = HumanMessage(content="What is the capital of Australia?")
response = agent.invoke(
{"messages": [question]}
)
response
CityInfo(name='Canberra', country='Australia')
print(f'{response["structured_response"] = }',
f'{response["structured_response"].name = }',
f'{response["structured_response"].country = }',
sep="\n"
)
response["structured_response"] = CityInfo(name='Canberra', country='Australia')
response["structured_response"].name = 'Canberra'
response["structured_response"].country = 'Australia'
Tool call
You have to find tool supporting model. For example,
%%bash
aws bedrock list-foundation-models --region ap-southeast-2 \

MCP
Anthropic’s engineering post Code execution with MCP: Building more efficient agents2 covers a scaling problem. As an agent connects to more MCP servers, a growing share of its context window goes to tool definitions and intermediate results instead of the user’s task. The fix is to stop presenting MCP tools as direct function calls. Instead, present them as a code API that lives on a filesystem. The agent writes a short program, runs it in a sandbox, and sees only the output that program chooses to show.
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard for connecting AI agents to external systems. Without it, every agent–tool pairing needs a custom integration. With it, a developer implements MCP once and the agent can use the whole ecosystem of MCP servers. Since MCP launched in November 2024, the community has built thousands of servers, SDKs exist for all major languages, and MCP has become the de facto standard. That success causes the problem: agents now commonly have hundreds or thousands of tools across dozens of servers.
The Problem: Two Sources of Token Waste
Two patterns make heavily connected agents slow and expensive.
| # | Pattern | What happens | Consequence |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Tool definitions overload the context window | Most MCP clients load every tool’s name, description, parameters and return type into the prompt up front | With thousands of tools, the model processes hundreds of thousands of tokens before it reads the request |
| 2 | Intermediate results flow through the model | Each tool’s output is placed in the context, and the model must re-emit that data as input to the next tool | Large payloads pass through the model repeatedly, and very large ones can exceed the context limit and break the workflow |
Tool definitions overload the context: In the traditional setup, the MCP client describes each tool to the model in detail: what it does, which parameters are required or optional, their types, and what comes back. One Google Drive “get document” tool or one Salesforce “update record” tool is small. Multiply that by every tool on every connected server, though, and the definitions alone can dominate the context. That raises cost (more input tokens per request) and latency (more to process before the first useful token).
Intermediate results consume additional tokens: For example, in a task: “Download my meeting transcript from Google Drive and attach it to the Salesforce lead.” With direct tool calling:
- The model calls the Drive tool, and the full transcript comes back into the context.
- The model then calls the Salesforce tool and has to write the entire transcript out again as an argument.
So the transcript passes through the model twice. For a two-hour sales meeting, that can mean roughly 50,000 extra tokens. Accuracy suffers too: the more data a model copies verbatim between calls, the more likely it is to make a mistake.
The Solution: Present MCP Servers as Code
Code execution environments are now common for agents. So instead of injecting tool schemas into the prompt, the MCP client can generate a small library of code wrappers, one per tool, and place them on the filesystem the agent can browse. Each wrapper is a thin, typed function that forwards its arguments to the matching MCP tool through a shared client helper.
graph TD
R[servers/] --> GD[google_drive/]

GD --> GD2[get_sheet]
GD --> GDI[index / package entry]
SF --> SF1[update_record]
SF --> SF2[query]
SF --> SFI[index / package entry]
The agent then works the way a developer exploring an unfamiliar codebase would:
- List the servers directory to see which integrations exist, for example Google Drive and Salesforce.
- Open only the tool files the task needs, such as “get document” and “update record”, to learn their inputs and outputs.
- Write a short program that calls Drive, stores the transcript in a variable, and passes that variable to Salesforce.
- Run the program in the sandbox and receive only a brief confirmation.
The transcript moves from Drive to Salesforce inside the execution environment and never enters the model’s context.

participant U as User
participant M as Model (context window)

participant G as Google Drive
participant S as Salesforce

M->>X: List servers, read 2 tool files
X-->>M: 2 small interface definitions
M->>X: Run a short script
X->>C: get document
C->>G: Forward call
G-->>X: Transcript (stays in sandbox)
X->>C: update record (transcript variable)
C->>S: Forward call
S-->>X: OK
X-->>M: "Done" (a few tokens)
M-->>U: Done
Anthropic reports that this approach cut token usage in their example from about 150,000 tokens to about 2,0003, a 98.7% reduction in both time and cost.
| Dimension | Direct tool calls | Code execution with MCP |
|---|---|---|
| Tool definitions in context | All of them, loaded up front | Only the files the agent opens |
| Intermediate data | Passes through the model on every step | Stays in the sandbox unless explicitly printed |
| Multi-step workflows | One model round-trip per tool call | One script covers many calls |
| Risk of copy errors | Grows with payload size | Data is passed by variable, not re-typed |
| Example token usage | ~150,000 | ~2,000 |
| Infrastructure needed | MCP client | MCP client plus a secure sandbox |
Same idea elsewhere: Cloudflare published similar findings under the name “Code Mode”4. The shared insight is that LLMs are good at writing code, so letting them drive MCP servers through code plays to that strength.

Progressive disclosure
Models are good at navigating filesystems. When tools are files, the model can read a definition at the moment it needs it instead of holding every definition all the time. This is progressive disclosure: start with a high-level view, then drill down only where the task requires it.
For servers with very many tools, suggestion is adding a search_tools capability. Given a keyword such as “salesforce”, it returns only the relevant tools. A detail level parameter lets the agent choose how much to load:
| Detail level | What it returns | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| Name only | Tool names | Quick check of what exists |
| Name + description | Names with a one-line summary | Picking the right tool |
| Full definition | Complete input and output schemas | Just before calling the tool |
Context-efficient tool results
Large datasets can be filtered and transformed in the sandbox before anything reaches the model. For example, a 10,000-row spreadsheet, with direct tool calling, all 10,000 rows land in the context and the model filters them by reading. With code execution, a script keeps only the rows whose status is “pending”, prints the count, and shows the first five as a sample. The model sees five rows instead of ten thousand.
The same pattern covers aggregations (totals, averages, group-bys), joins across data sources, and pulling out a few fields from large records, all without bloating the context window.
More powerful and context-efficient control flow
Loops, conditionals and error handling are normal programming constructs. Without code, they have to be faked by chaining individual tool calls through the agent loop. Take the task of waiting for a “deployment complete” message in Slack:
| Approach | How it works | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Direct tool calls | Model calls “get channel history”, reads the result, calls a sleep tool, then repeats | Every iteration is a full model round-trip |
| Code execution | One script polls the channel every few seconds in a loop and prints a single message when found | The model is involved once, at the start and the end |
Running branches in the sandbox also improves time-to-first-token latency. The execution environment evaluates the conditions directly, so the agent doesn’t have to wait for the model to reason through each if/else.
Privacy-preserving operations
With code execution, intermediate results stay in the execution environment by default. The model sees only what the program explicitly logs or returns, so data you don’t want to share with the model can move through the workflow without ever entering its context.
For more sensitive workloads, the agent harness can tokenise personal data automatically. Suppose customer contact details are imported from a spreadsheet into Salesforce:
- The script reads each row (name, email, phone) and sends it to Salesforce.
- The MCP client intercepts the data and replaces each sensitive value with a placeholder such as
[EMAIL_1]or[PHONE_1]before anything could reach the model. - If the agent logs the rows, it sees only the placeholders.
- When a placeholder appears in a later tool call, the MCP client swaps the real value back in from its private lookup table.

The real names, emails and phone numbers go from Google Sheets to Salesforce without ever passing through the model, which also stops the agent from accidentally logging or reasoning over them. The same mechanism can enforce deterministic security rules about where data may flow to and from.
State persistence and skills
When the sandbox has filesystem access, the agent can keep state across operations. It can write intermediate results to files, such as a CSV export of a thousand Salesforce leads, and a later run can pick up where the earlier one stopped. Long jobs become resumable and progress becomes trackable.
The agent can also save its own working code as reusable functions. Once it has solved something like “export a Google Sheet to CSV”, it can store that implementation in a skills folder and import it in future runs instead of rewriting it.
This links to Anthropic’s Agent Skills5: folders of reusable instructions, scripts and resources that help a model with specialised tasks. Adding a SKILL.md file next to a saved function turns it into a structured skill the model can discover and use.

Over time, the agent builds a toolbox of higher-level capabilities and grows the scaffolding it needs to work effectively.
Trade-offs
Caution: Code execution adds complexity of its own. Running model-generated code safely needs a secure execution environment with proper sandboxing, resource limits and monitoring. That brings operational overhead and security considerations that direct tool calls avoid.
The benefits (lower token cost, lower latency, better tool composition) should be weighed against those implementation costs:
| Scenario | Direct tool calls | Code execution |
|---|---|---|
| A handful of tools, small payloads | ✅ | ➖ |
| Hundreds or thousands of tools | ❌ | ✅ |
| Large documents or datasets | ❌ | ✅ |
| Loops, polling, branching logic | ❌ | ✅ |
| Sensitive data (PII) | ❌ | ✅ |
| No sandbox infrastructure available | ✅ | ❌ |

Best Choice – Sri Lanka
Your list of favourite destinations includes UK (English‑speaking), France, Germany, and Sri Lanka.
You or your traveller already know Sinhala, the main language used in Sri Lanka (along with Tamil).
This means you’ll be able to navigate, talk to locals, and enjoy the culture without constantly relying on a third‑party interpreter or having to learn a new language on the spot.
Why choose Sri Lanka?
| Factor | Sri Lanka | France | Germany |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary language | Sinhala (plus Tamil) – matches your language skills | French – you need a translator or rely on English | |
| Ease of communication | High – you speak the local language | Moderate – many tourists speak English, but native interactions are richer in local language | |
| Cultural experience | Relaxing island vibe, world‑class wildlife, historic temples, unique biodiversity | Rich European culture, art, architecture (needs language bridge) | |
| Travel flexibility | Good infrastructure for English‑speaking tourists but less reliance on English | Good infrastructure for English‑speaking tourists but primary language is different | |
| Return to “non‑English” feel | Truly non‑English oriented, but still accessible to you | Mostly non‑English but you’d be speaking English curiously |
So, visiting Sri Lanka will give you a genuinely non‑English speaking environment while still allowing you to communicate comfortably. Enjoy the beaches, the tea fields, the national parks, and of course the delicious cuisine that can be talked about without a language barrier!
Summary
MCP gives agents one protocol for connecting to many tools and systems. Once too many servers are connected, though, tool definitions and intermediate results consume too many tokens and agents become less efficient.
These problems look new (context management, tool composition, state persistence), but software engineering already has answers for them. Code execution applies those established patterns to agents:
- Import only what you need: progressive disclosure of tool definitions.
- Process data where it lives: filter, aggregate and join in the sandbox.
- Use real control flow: loops and conditionals instead of chained tool calls.
- Keep sensitive data out of the model: default isolation plus PII tokenisation.
- Save and reuse what works: files for state, functions and skills for capability.
Anthropic encourages developers who implement this approach to share their findings with the MCP community.
