Slightly confusing docs for Amazon Bedrock setup

[cklingspor]

Question

Hey team,

I think the docs for Amazon Bedrock could be slightly improved:
https://opencode.ai/docs/providers/#amazon-bedrock

Currently the page mainly explains how to set up Bedrock using an API key. A couple of clarifications could help users get started more easily.

My suggestion on how to improve:

1. Add a direct link to the AWS documentation on creating API keys:
   https://docs.aws.amazon.com/bedrock/latest/userguide/api-keys.html

2. In the Environment Variables (Quick Start) section:
   https://opencode.ai/docs/providers/#environment-variables-quick-start

   With the correct IAM permissions configured, users do not need to run the /connect command. They can go directly to /models, which will show a list of available models. However, this is not apparent imho.

   This works even without explicitly requesting model access as described in the docs.

   

If helpful, I can also share a sample IAM policy that grants the required permissions?

Could you guide me on how to configure Amazon Bedrock in Opencode? All I have are the AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY.

This is already a good starting point: https://opencode.ai/docs/providers/#amazon-bedrock. As a prerequisite you need the AWS CLI installed: Take a look at the Get Started and Configure the AWS cli sections: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/getting-started-prereqs.html
