WHAT IT DOES

What delegateToL2Detective does on Bedrock Agent Core Operations Hub

AI agents invoke delegateToL2Detective to trigger actions in Bedrock Agent Core Operations Hub. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why delegateToL2Detective needs a policy

This tool triggers execution in an external autonomous agent system. It is not merely reading data — it initiates an agent workflow (L2 Detective) that could perform further automated operations including self-healing infrastructure changes.

From the tool's definition 'Delegates a systemic infrastructure failure to the L2 Detective agent for root cause analysis' and 'triggers external operations' by invoking another autonomous agent (L2 Detective) to perform analysis and potentially remediation.
