    Sorry you have to deal with this. You can stay on Amazon Bedrock. Here is what to change before January 8, 2027:

1. Find the model ID. Search your code and settings for anthropic.claude-opus-4-1-20250805-v1:0, with or without a us. prefix.
2. Pick a newer Claude model. Anthropic names claude-opus-4-8 on its own API. Check that an Active Opus model runs in your Region.
3. Test, then switch. Run your usual prompts. Check output and cost before January 8.
