-**Bedrock model access (main model):** Configuring `ANTHROPIC_MODEL` and IAM credentials is not enough. Your AWS account must be able to **invoke** that model in Amazon Bedrock: follow [Request access to models](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/bedrock/latest/userguide/model-access.html) (Marketplace permissions on first use, Anthropic first-time use where required, valid payment method for Marketplace-backed models). Always use an inference profile ID such as `us.anthropic.claude-opus-4-8`: a bare foundation-model ID cannot be invoked with on-demand throughput and Bedrock rejects it with `ValidationException`. IAM must also grant the model — see [Model configuration](../docs/guides/DEVELOPER_GUIDE.md#model-configuration) for the full layering. If the CLI stops with a message that the model is not available on your Bedrock deployment, fix model access in the console or switch `ANTHROPIC_MODEL` to an entitled profile, then retry.

 **Pre-flight check model**: Claude Code runs a quick safety verification using a small Haiku model before executing each tool command. On Bedrock, the default Haiku model ID may not be enabled in your account, causing the check to time out with *"Pre-flight check is taking longer than expected"* warnings. The agent sets `ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_HAIKU_MODEL` to a known-available Bedrock Haiku model ID to avoid this. If you see pre-flight timeout warnings, verify that this model is enabled in your Bedrock model access settings.
