Unlike one-shot command execution, interactive shells maintain state across commands — environment variables, working directories, and running processes persist for the lifetime of the session. Each runtime session supports up to 10 concurrent shell sessions. See [Interactive Shells (Terminals)](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/bedrock-agentcore/latest/devguide/runtime-get-started-command-shell.html). + +### Step Functions integration with AgentCore harness + +AWS Step Functions now integrates natively with AgentCore harness, enabling teams to embed agent reasoning steps directly into production workflows. Within a workflow, run multiple harnesses in parallel or sequence, and wrap them with human approval, error handling, or conditional routing steps. Create a new harness inline from the Step Functions visual builder, or reference an existing one with per-invocation overrides to model, system prompt, and tools. Available in all AWS Regions where AgentCore harness is supported. See [Invoke Amazon Bedrock AgentCore harness with Step Functions](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/bedrock-agentcore/latest/devguide/harness-step-functions.html). +
