What's Wrong?
When ”CLAUDE_CODE_USE_BEDROCK” is set to "1" and no model is specified in settings.json, the default model is set to us.anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929-v1:0, but it should be global.anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929-v1:0.
I believe this is because AWS changed the prefix rule starting with Sonnet 4.5.
What Should Happen?
Default model should be global.anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929-v1:0
