# PRD #175: Amazon Bedrock Provider Support **Status**: Implemented **Created**: 2025-10-22 **Completed**: 2025-11-02 **GitHub Issue**: [#175](https://github.com/vfarcic/dot-ai/issues/175) **Priority**: Medium --- ## Problem Statement Users with AWS credits, AWS-centric infrastructure, or enterprise AWS agreements cannot leverage their existing AWS investments to use AI models in dot-ai. This creates barriers to adoption for: - **Enterprise AWS customers** with existing credits or committed spend - **Organizations** with AWS-only security/compliance policies - **Teams** wanting centralized AWS billing for AI services - **Users in AWS regions** with better latency to Bedrock endpoints Currently, dot-ai requires direct API keys for Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, etc., forcing users to manage separate billing relationships and credentials even when these same models are available through AWS Bedrock. ## Solution Overview Add Amazon Bedrock as a standard provider option (`AI_PROVIDER=amazon_bedrock`), following the same simple pattern as Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, and other existing providers. Users access Bedrock models through AWS credentials and specify Bedrock model IDs directly. ### Key Design Principles 1. **Simplicity**: Amazon Bedrock is just another provider choice - no new concepts or environment variables 2. **Consistency**: Uses existing `AI_PROVIDER` pattern that users already understand 3. **Direct Model IDs**: Users specify Bedrock model IDs directly (e.g., `anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929-v1:0`) 4. **AWS SDK Integration**: Leverages AWS SDK credential chain for flexible authentication ### User Experience ```bash # Existing behavior (unchanged) - Direct Anthropic API AI_PROVIDER=anthropic ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-... AI_MODEL=claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929 # Native model ID # New: Claude via AWS Bedrock AI_PROVIDER=amazon_bedrock AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=AKIA... AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=... AWS_REGION=us-east-1 AI_MODEL=anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929-v1:0 # Bedrock model ID # New: Llama via AWS Bedrock AI_PROVIDER=amazon_bedrock AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=AKIA... AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=... AWS_REGION=us-east-1 AI_MODEL=meta.llama3-70b-instruct-v1:0 # Bedrock model ID ``` --- ## User Stories ### Primary User Stories 1. **As an AWS enterprise customer**, I want to use Claude models through Bedrock so I can leverage my existing AWS credits and centralized billing - **Acceptance**: Can set `AI_PROVIDER=amazon_bedrock` and use AWS credentials to access Claude models 2. **As a DevOps engineer**, I want to use Llama 3 models through Bedrock so I can access open-source models without managing separate API keys - **Acceptance**: Can deploy with `AI_PROVIDER=amazon_bedrock AI_MODEL=meta.llama3-70b-instruct-v1:0` and access Llama models 3. **As a security-conscious organization**, I want all AI traffic to go through AWS so I can enforce VPC endpoints and AWS security controls - **Acceptance**: All model requests use AWS SDK with standard AWS security configurations 4. **As a cost-conscious user**, I want to use Amazon Titan models through Bedrock so I can optimize costs with AWS-native models - **Acceptance**: Can use Titan models via `AI_PROVIDER=amazon_bedrock AI_MODEL=amazon.titan-text-premier-v1:0` ### Secondary User Stories 5. **As a multi-cloud user**, I want consistent configuration patterns for accessing models across platforms - **Acceptance**: Same provider selection pattern (`AI_PROVIDER`) works for future Azure/GCP platform integrations 6. **As a developer**, I want to use Bedrock model IDs directly without translation complexity - **Acceptance**: Can specify `AI_MODEL=anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929-v1:0` and system uses it directly --- ## Technical Approach ### Architecture Decision: Treat Amazon Bedrock as Standard Provider **Decision**: Add Amazon Bedrock as a standard provider (`amazon_bedrock`) in the existing provider architecture, following the same pattern as Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, etc. **Date**: 2025-11-02 (Finalized during implementation) **Rationale**: - **Simplicity**: No new environment variables or configuration concepts - just another provider choice - **Consistency**: Follows exact same pattern as all existing providers (`AI_PROVIDER=amazon_bedrock`) - **User Experience**: Users already understand provider selection - no learning curve - **Maintenance**: Minimal code changes - add to model config, add switch case, done - **Vercel SDK Integration**: SDK's `createAmazonBedrock()` handles all Bedrock complexity **Implemented User Experience**: ```bash # Standard provider pattern - just like any other provider AI_PROVIDER=amazon_bedrock AI_MODEL=global.anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-20250514-v1:0 AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=AKIA... AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=... AWS_REGION=us-east-1 ``` **Key Design Principles (As Implemented)**: 1. **No Model ID Translation**: Users provide Bedrock model IDs directly (e.g., `global.anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-20250514-v1:0`) 2. **No Platform Abstraction**: Amazon Bedrock is just another provider, not a "platform layer" 3. **AWS SDK Handles Credentials**: AWS credential chain works automatically (env vars, ~/.aws/credentials, IAM roles) 4. **Follows OpenRouter Pattern**: Same simplicity as existing `openrouter` provider **Architecture Evolution During Implementation**: - **Original PRD Proposal**: Use `AI_PLATFORM=aws` environment variable with platform abstraction layer - **Implementation Feedback**: User questioned "Why do we need platform-config.ts?" and "Would it make sense to use AI_PROVIDER instead?" - **Final Decision**: Treat Bedrock as just another provider - much simpler, follows established patterns - **Result**: No `AI_PLATFORM`, no `platform-config.ts`, no model translation - just `AI_PROVIDER=amazon_bedrock` **Alternatives Rejected**: 1. **Platform abstraction with `AI_PLATFORM`** (original PRD approach): - Would add unnecessary new environment variable - Would require model ID translation layer - Creates more complex mental model for users - Adds maintenance burden for translation mappings - **Rejected during implementation based on user feedback** 2. **Creating separate `BedrockProvider`** (PR #174 approach): - Duplicates functionality already in Vercel SDK - Breaks the unified provider pattern - Requires maintaining parallel implementations ### Implementation Components #### 1. Model Configuration **File**: `src/core/model-config.ts` (modify) Add Amazon Bedrock to the provider list with default model: ```typescript export const CURRENT_MODELS = { // ... existing providers ... amazon_bedrock: 'anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929-v1:0' } as const; ``` #### 2. AI Provider Factory **File**: `src/core/ai-provider-factory.ts` (modify) Add special credential handling for Bedrock (AWS SDK uses credential chain, not API keys): ```typescript // Special handling for Amazon Bedrock - AWS SDK handles credentials automatically if (providerType === 'amazon_bedrock') { // Use dummy API key for Bedrock - AWS SDK will handle actual authentication // AWS credentials checked at runtime by AWS SDK (env vars, ~/.aws/credentials, IAM roles) apiKey = 'bedrock-uses-aws-credentials'; } else { // Standard API key lookup for other providers // ...existing code... } ``` #### 3. Vercel Provider **File**: `src/core/providers/vercel-provider.ts` (modify) Add static import and `amazon_bedrock` case to the provider switch statement: ```typescript // Add to imports at top of file import { createAmazonBedrock } from '@ai-sdk/amazon-bedrock'; // Add case in initializeModel() switch statement private initializeModel(): void { try { let provider: any; switch (this.providerType) { case 'openai': provider = createOpenAI({ apiKey: this.apiKey }); break; case 'anthropic': provider = createAnthropic({ apiKey: this.apiKey }); break; // ... existing cases ... case 'amazon_bedrock': // NEW: Amazon Bedrock provider // AWS SDK automatically uses credential chain: // 1. Environment variables (AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_REGION) // 2. ~/.aws/credentials file // 3. IAM roles (EC2 instance profiles, ECS roles, EKS service accounts) provider = createAmazonBedrock({ region: process.env.AWS_REGION || 'us-east-1', }); break; default: throw new Error(`Cannot initialize model for provider: ${this.providerType}`); } // Model instance creation - same for all providers this.modelInstance = provider(this.model); } catch (error) { throw new Error(`Failed to initialize ${this.providerType} model: ${error}`); } } ``` **Key Points**: - Single `createAmazonBedrock()` function handles all Bedrock model families (Anthropic, Llama, Titan, Mistral) - Users provide Bedrock model IDs directly via `AI_MODEL` environment variable - AWS SDK credential chain handles authentication automatically - Follows same pattern as all other providers in the switch statement #### 4. Credential Management **AWS Credential Chain**: 1. Environment variables: `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`, `AWS_SESSION_TOKEN` 2. AWS credentials file: `~/.aws/credentials` 3. IAM role (EC2/ECS/Lambda) - handled by AWS SDK automatically **Validation**: Early validation of credentials before attempting model calls. --- ## Supported Models (Phase 1) ### Priority 1: Anthropic Claude - **Models**: Sonnet 4, Haiku 4 - **Rationale**: Top performer in evaluations, proven for K8s workflows - **Tool Support**: Full tool calling and agentic behavior ### Priority 2: Meta Llama 3 - **Models**: Llama 3 70B Instruct -

Centralize model ID mapping in single configuration file - Add validation to detect unsupported model IDs early - Document how to use native Bedrock model IDs directly - Monitor AWS Bedrock model catalog changes ### Risk 2: Feature Parity Gaps **Risk**: Some Bedrock models lack tool calling or other features **Mitigation**: - Test tool calling on all models before marking milestone complete - Document feature support matrix clearly - Provide clear errors when unsupported features are used - Consider model-specific capability detection ### Risk 3: AWS Credential Complexity **Risk**: AWS credential chain is complex, users get confused **Mitigation**: - Provide clear setup guide with examples for each auth method - Add detailed error messages for credential issues - Include troubleshooting section for common AWS errors - Consider credential validation tool/command ### Risk 4: Cost Surprises **Risk**: Bedrock pricing differs from direct API, users surprised by costs **Mitigation**: - Document pricing differences clearly - Link to AWS Bedrock pricing calculator - Log token usage consistently for cost tracking - Consider adding cost estimation in debug output ### Risk 5: Regional Availability **Risk**: Not all models available in all AWS regions **Mitigation**: - Document model availability by region - Provide clear error when model unavailable in selected region - Suggest alternative regions in error messages - Test in multiple common regions (us-east-1, us-west-2, eu-west-1) --- ## Dependencies ### External Dependencies - **AWS Bedrock Access**: Users must enable Bedrock in their AWS account - **Model Access**: Users must request access to specific models in AWS console - **Vercel AI SDK**: `@ai-sdk/amazon-bedrock@^1.0.0` package - **AWS SDK**: Compatible AWS credentials and region configuration ### Internal Dependencies - **AI Provider Factory**: Must support platform routing - **VercelProvider**: Must be extended for Bedrock initialization - **Integration Test Infrastructure**: Must support AWS credential configuration - **Documentation System**: Must be updated with new configuration patterns ### Blocked By - None (independent feature addition) ### Blocks - Future Azure OpenAI integration (will reuse platform pattern) - Future GCP Vertex AI integration (will reuse platform pattern) --- ## Future Enhancements (Out of Scope for Phase 1) ### Phase 2: Additional Platforms - Azure OpenAI Service integration (`AI_PLATFORM=azure`) - GCP Vertex AI integration (`AI_PLATFORM=gcp`) - Platform-specific optimizations (VPC endpoints, etc.) ### Phase 3: Advanced Bedrock Features - Cross-region inference profiles - Provisioned throughput support - Model evaluation and fine-tuning integration - Guardrails integration ### Phase 4: Enhanced Auth Methods - IAM role assumption support - Cross-account access configuration - STS temporary credentials - AWS SSO integration ### Phase 5: Platform-Specific Features - AWS CloudWatch integration for logging - AWS X-Ray tracing integration - Cost allocation tags - Service quotas monitoring --- ## Open Questions ### Resolved 1. **Implementation Pattern**: Should Bedrock be handled via switch case or separate conditional? - **Decision (2025-11-02)**: Use `amazon_bedrock` as provider type in switch statement - **Rationale**: Follows established pattern of provider overrides (`openrouter`) - **Impact**: Simplified code, better consistency, single case handles all models 2. **Architecture Approach**: Should we use `AI_PLATFORM` abstraction or treat Bedrock as standard provider? - **Decision (2025-11-02)**: Treat Bedrock as standard provider (`AI_PROVIDER=amazon_bedrock`) - **Rationale**: User feedback revealed over-engineering - simpler to follow OpenRouter pattern - **Impact**: No new env variables, no model translation, minimal code changes 3. **Model ID Format**: Should users provide native model IDs or Bedrock-specific IDs? - **Decision (2025-11-02)**: Users provide Bedrock model IDs directly (e.g., `global.anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-20250514-v1:0`) - **Rationale**: No translation layer needed - users specify what they want - **Impact**: Simpler implementation, clearer user experience 4. **Credential Priority**: What order should credential sources be checked? - **Decision (2025-11-02)**: Use AWS SDK standard credential chain - **Implementation**: Env vars → ~/.aws/credentials → IAM role (AWS SDK default order) - **Impact**: Consistent with AWS best practices 5. **Titan vs Direct API**: For models available both direct and on Bedrock, which should be default? - **Decision (2025-10-22)**: Native API remains default, Bedrock opt-in via provider selection - **Impact**: Backward compatibility preserved, users explicitly choose Bedrock ### Future Considerations 6. **Region Fallback**: Should we automatically try alternate regions if model unavailable? - **Current Behavior**: Fail fast with AWS SDK error - **Future Enhancement**: Could suggest alternative regions in error messages 7. **Multi-Model Testing**: Should we validate all Bedrock model families (Llama, Titan, Mistral)? - **Current State**: Claude Sonnet 4 validated - **Future Work**: Expand testing to other model families based on user demand --- ## Progress Log ### 2025-11-02 - Amazon Bedrock Provider Implementation Complete ✅ **Architecture Simplification**: - **Original PRD Proposal**: Platform abstraction layer with `AI_PLATFORM=aws` + model ID translation - **Implementation Feedback**: User questioned "Why do we need platform-config.ts?" and suggested using `AI_PROVIDER` instead - **Final Decision**: Treat Bedrock as standard provider (`AI_PROVIDER=amazon_bedrock`) - much simpler - **Result**: No `AI_PLATFORM`, no `platform-config.ts`, no model translation - just another provider choice **Implementation Summary**: **Core Changes**: -
