What
When Bedrock or Vertex request signing cannot get AWS credentials, you now get one clear message instead of a raw SDK rejection.
Details
- The provider chain is awaited inside a try/catch and any failure is rewrapped as a typed error with a fixed message.
Evidence
Failed to resolve AWS credentials from the credential provider chain.
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
