Descripción

**Component:** cdk (AgentCore runtime) / docs

## Describe the bug

On a fresh account, the first deploy can fail creating `AWS::BedrockAgentCore::Runtime` with a message that reads like a service quota problem but is not:

```
Resource handler returned message: "Limit exceeded for resource of type
'AWS::BedrockAgentCore::Runtime'. Reason: Failed creating service linked role.
Rate limit exceeded from IAM (Service: BedrockAgentCoreControl, Status Code: 402,
Request ID: ...)" (HandlerErrorCode: ServiceLimitExceeded)
```

AgentCore is auto-creating its service-linked role (`AWSServiceRoleForBedrockAgentCoreGatewayNetwork`) on first use and the IAM call is rate-limited. `ServiceLimitExceeded` plus "Limit exceeded" sends you looking at Service Quotas, where there is nothing to find.

The failure also cascades: the Runtime failure cancels sibling resources mid-create, which is how [#866](https://github.com/aws-samples/sample-autonomous-cloud-coding-agents/issues/866) was found. So one transient IAM rate limit produced a rolled-back stack that then could not be deleted without `--retain-resources` surgery.

## Expected behavior

A fresh-account deploy either provisions the service-linked role deterministically, or fails with a message that names the actual cause and the one-line remedy.

## Current behavior

Deploy fails at the Runtime with `ServiceLimitExceeded`, rolls back, and the operator has no indication that a service-linked role is involved.

## Reproduction steps

1. Fresh AWS account with no `AWSServiceRoleForBedrockAgentCoreGatewayNetwork` — confirm with:
```bash
aws iam list-roles --path-prefix /aws-service-role/bedrock-agentcore.amazonaws.com/
```
(empty)
2. `mise //cdk:bootstrap && mise //cdk:deploy -- --require-approval never`
3. Observe the Runtime `CREATE_FAILED` above.

Pre-creating the role fixes it permanently — the next deploy succeeded first try, 100 resources, Runtime `READY`:

```bash
aws iam create-service-linked-role --aws-service-name bedrock-agentcore.amazonaws.com
```

## Possible solution

Either or both:

1. **Declare the dependency in the stack.** An `AWS::IAM::ServiceLinkedRole` for `bedrock-agentcore.amazonaws.com` that the Runtime depends on, so CloudFormation orders and retries it instead of relying on an implicit first-use side effect. Worth checking whether CFN tolerates the role already existing — an account that has used AgentCore before will already have it, and `AWS::IAM::ServiceLinkedRole` fails rather than adopting a pre-existing role, so this likely needs a custom resource or a documented context flag.
2. **Document it** as a QUICK_START troubleshooting row. Cheap, and useful even with option 1, since the misleading error will keep appearing in older stacks and other regions.

Option 2 is already covered by [#868](https://github.com/aws-samples/sample-autonomous-cloud-coding-agents/pull/868), which adds the row while fixing the rollback wedge. Filing this so option 1 is tracked separately rather than lost in a PR description.

## Environment

- Node v22.23.2 (mise) · mise 2026.7.0 macos-arm64 · Region `us-east-1`
- Commit `12c9b63f`
- Related: [#866](https://github.com/aws-samples/sample-autonomous-cloud-coding-agents/issues/866) (the rollback wedge this triggered), [#868](https://github.com/aws-samples/sample-autonomous-cloud-coding-agents/pull/868) (docs row)

Línea de trabajo

Comienza por los puntos de entrada de CDK utilizados por `mise //cdk:bootstrap` y `mise //cdk:deploy -- --require-approval never`; después, inspecciona cómo se aprovisiona AgentCore Runtime. Reproduce el fallo en una cuenta nueva y determina cómo debería comportarse el aprovisionamiento cuando la service-linked role no existe o ya existe. Se considera terminado cuando un deploy desde cero gestiona la rol de forma determinista o informa de la causa real y de la solución, sin depender del trabajo de documentación de PR #868.
