Automatic AWS Credential Initialization for Bedrock

What: When using AWS Bedrock, credentials are now validated and refreshed automatically at startup.

How to use:

# Configure custom AWS auth commands in ~/.claude.json
{
  "awsAuthRefresh": "aws sso login --profile my-profile",
  "awsCredentialExport": "aws configure export-credentials --profile my-profile"
}

# Or skip auto-initialization if not needed
export CLAUDE_CODE_SKIP_BEDROCK_AUTH=1
claude

Details:

  • Runs at startup when CLAUDE_CODE_USE_BEDROCK is set and CLAUDE_CODE_SKIP_BEDROCK_AUTH is not set
  • First attempts standard AWS SDK authentication via STS GetCallerIdentity
  • Falls back to custom awsAuthRefresh or awsCredentialExport commands if needed
  • Includes workspace trust checks before executing custom commands
  • Provides visual authentication feedback
  • Evidence: New uhQ() initialization function at line 465179, called during startup at line 475285 in pretty-v2.0.24.js
