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.

Details
  • Set CLAUDE_CODE_USE_ANTHROPIC_AWS=1 to enable the provider
  • Requires ANTHROPIC_AWS_WORKSPACE_ID (or workspaceId in constructor)
  • Optionally set ANTHROPIC_AWS_BASE_URL or let it derive from AWS_REGION / AWS_DEFAULT_REGION (pattern: https://aws-external-anthropic.{region}.api.aws)
  • Supports AWS SigV4 request signing via @aws-sdk/credential-providers
  • Supports explicit credentials via awsAccessKey + awsSecretAccessKey, AWS profile, or a custom providerChainResolver
  • Set CLAUDE_CODE_SKIP_ANTHROPIC_AWS_AUTH=1 to skip authentication (for development/testing)
  • Fast mode is not available on this provider (same as Bedrock, Vertex, and Foundry)
