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.

AWS Bedrock control-plane SDK vendored into the bundle

Not switched on
Useful1 Signal3
AWS Bedrock

A full AWS Bedrock management SDK is bundled but no code in the build calls it.

About a hundred Bedrock control-plane commands are vendored in with no call site in this build.

What

The bundle now carries a full Bedrock management client with roughly a hundred commands (guardrails, evaluation jobs, model customization, import and invocation jobs, inference profiles, provisioned throughput, marketplace endpoints and the automated reasoning policy family) plus paginators and schema definitions. This is management API surface, separate from the Bedrock runtime used for inference, and no code in this build calls it.

Evidence

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