AWS Bedrock Claude Adaptive Thinking
====================================
Cookbook example demonstrating adaptive thinking with output_config on AWS Bedrock.
For Claude 4.6 Bedrock models, use adaptive thinking with the effort parameter
to control thinking depth. Valid effort values:
- "low": Most efficient, significant token savings
- "medium": Balanced approach with moderate savings
- "high": Default, high capability for complex reasoning
- "max": Absolute maximum capability (Opus 4.6 only)
Prerequisites:
- Set AWS credentials via environment variables or boto3 session
- Ensure you have access to Claude 4.6 models in your AWS region
