I Built My Own Agent Control Plane So You Don't Have To (But You Probably Will Anyway)

Last month, I watched a startup I know spend three weeks trying to move their Claude-based agent to AWS Bedrock. Three weeks. Not because the agent logic was complicated, it wasn't. But because their entire infrastructure assumed Claude was the runtime. Credentials were hardcoded....
