Source Intelligence

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.

Details
  • Set CLAUDE_CODE_USE_MANTLE to enable the Mantle provider
  • Additional env vars: ANTHROPIC_BEDROCK_MANTLE_BASE_URL, ANTHROPIC_BEDROCK_MANTLE_API_KEY, CLAUDE_CODE_SKIP_MANTLE_AUTH
  • Uses bedrock-mantle as the service name with SigV4 authentication
  • Supports explicit AWS credentials or the standard AWS credential provider chain
  • Base URL pattern: https://bedrock-mantle.{region}.api.aws/anthropic
  • Mantle endpoints added to all model deployment configurations
  • Provider detection centralised into a single function that handles Mantle alongside existing providers (Bedrock, Vertex, Foundry)
  • The ANTHROPIC_BEDROCK_MANTLE_API_KEY is treated as sensitive and masked in logs
Evidence

Provider configuration (search for "Amazon Bedrock (Mantle)", "CLAUDE_CODE_USE_MANTLE", "bedrock-mantle")

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