description	Send replies back to the external service connected via this connector. Use when responding to messages received through the custom connector.
license	Apache-2.0
metadata	{"author":"thinkwork","version":"1.0.0"}

Tools

• send_reply — Send a reply message back to the external service. Takes the external_thread_id from thread metadata and the message text to deliver.

Usage

• When responding to messages from this connector, always use send_reply to deliver the response back to the external service.
• The thread metadata contains the connector_id and external_thread_id needed for routing.
• Keep replies concise and formatted appropriately for the external service.
• If EXTERNAL_API_URL or EXTERNAL_API_KEY is not set, inform the operator rather than silently failing.

Context

Requires two environment variables on the AgentCore Lambda:

• EXTERNAL_API_URL — Base URL of the external service's API
• EXTERNAL_API_KEY — Authentication key for the external service

Configure these via the Thinkwork admin panel under Connector Settings.
