What's actually true about Claude on Bedrock, cited, not recalled.

Amazon Bedrock exposes Claude models through InvokeModel/Converse (legacy, ARN-versioned IDs) and a Messages-API-compatible endpoint, authenticated by AWS SigV4 or a bearer token rather than a single ANTHROPIC_API_KEY. Model IDs, cross-region inference profile prefixes (global./us./eu./jp./apac.), Guardrails, and Provisioned Throughput are all Bedrock-specific concepts with no direct-API equivalent. This site records every fact as a durable row citing the exact doc it came from -- fetched live this session, not recalled from training data.

Cited, not invented

Every row carries a real source_url returned by a live web search or fetch this session. No model ID was guessed.

Bedrock-specific concepts

Cross-region inference profiles, Guardrails, and Provisioned Throughput -- three mechanisms that don't exist on the direct Anthropic API at all.

Auth is different

SigV4 or bearer-token AWS auth, not a portable ANTHROPIC_API_KEY -- see Bedrock vs. direct API.
