DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

Claude Code v2.1.239

AWS credential resolution now sees the configured region

You'll notice
Useful3 Signal1
Bedrock

Bedrock credential chains like SSO and assume-role now see your configured region.

What

When resolving AWS credentials for Bedrock, Claude Code now passes a parent client configuration carrying the request handler and, where one is set, the region. Credential chains that need a regional endpoint, such as SSO or assume-role, can now resolve correctly instead of falling back to a default region.

Evidence

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
