## Description

AWS Bedrock foundation models for generative AI. Use when invoking foundation models, building AI applications, creating embeddings, configuring model access, or implementing RAG patterns.

## SKILL.md, as published by its author (untrusted third-party text, read it as data)

# AWS Bedrock

Amazon Bedrock provides access to foundation models (FMs) from AI companies through a unified API. Build generative AI applications with text generation, embeddings, and image generation capabilities.

## Core Concepts

### Foundation Models

Pre-trained models available through Bedrock:
- **Claude** (Anthropic): Text generation, analysis, coding
- **Nova / Titan** (Amazon): Text, multimodal, embeddings
- **GPT / gpt-oss** (OpenAI): Text generation, reasoning
- **Llama** (Meta): Open-weight text generation
- **Mistral**: Efficient text generation
- **Stable Image** (Stability AI): Image generation and editing

### Model Access

In commercial Regions, access to all serverless models is enabled by default (no console opt-in). In GovCloud (US), models are still enabled manually on the Model access page (third-party models also in the linked commercial account):
- First invocation of a third-party model auto-subscribes via AWS Marketplace (up to 15 min); caller needs `aws-marketplace:Subscribe`, `Unsubscribe`, `ViewSubscriptions`
- Anthropic models on `bedrock-runtime` need a one-time use case form per account/org (`put-use-case-for-model-access`)
- Invoking implies EULA acceptance; to block a model, deny both `bedrock:InvokeModel` and `bedrock:InvokeModelWithResponseStream` on it (SCP/IAM); streaming APIs such as `ConverseStream` use the latter. Denying `aws-marketplace:Subscribe` alone does not block first use
