Agent identity, policy & registry Partial match
AgentCore Identity and Policy map to Agent Identity (GA), which gives each agent an IAM principal, and Agent Gateway (preview) for central tool and model access control.
- Agent Identity uses standard Google Cloud IAM, so permissions are granted with IAM roles per agent.
- Central policy enforcement through Agent Gateway was still in Private Preview as of Apr 2026.
