## Problem
When `claude-agent-acp` runs against a Bedrock or Vertex deployment
where the
enterprise enforces **short model aliases** in `availableModels` (e.g.
`claude-opus-4-6`), session creation fails immediately with:
```
API Error (claude-opus-4-6): 400 The provided model identifier is invalid.
Try switching to us.anthropic.claude-opus-4-5-20251101-v1:0.
```
### Root cause
`applyAvailableModelsAllowlist` rewrites each allowlisted model's
`value` to the
user's literal entry (the short alias), and that value is what gets
passed to
`query.setModel()`. The provider API rejects short aliases — it requires
provider-specific IDs such as `global.anthropic.claude-opus-4-6-v1[1m]`.
The `modelOverrides` map — which exists precisely to translate aliases
to
provider IDs — was never consulted during allowlist resolution. So even
with a
correct `modelOverrides` configured (via `settings.json` or
`CLAUDE_MODEL_CONFIG`),
the alias still reached the API unchanged.
This is reproducible on the Amazon-internal Toolbox Claude distribution,
which
regenerates `~/.claude/settings.json` on every launch with
`availableModels`
pinned to short aliases — so editing `settings.json` cannot work around
it.
### Trace (with temporary debug logging)
```
settings.model = "global.anthropic.claude-opus-4-6-v1[1m]" (desired)
getAvailableModels currentModel.value = "claude-opus-4-6" (WRONG)
calling query.setModel("claude-opus-4-6") (rejected)
```
## Fix
`applyAvailableModelsAllowlist` now accepts `settings.modelOverrides`.
When an
allowlist alias has an override mapping, the **overridden provider ID**
becomes
the surfaced model value, so `setModel` passes an ID the provider
accepts.
After the fix:
```
getAvailableModels currentModel.value = "global.anthropic.claude-opus-4-6-v1[1m]"
calling query.setModel("global.anthropic.claude-opus-4-6-v1[1m]")
```
and `acpx claude exec "what model are you using?"` responds normally:
> I'm running on Claude Opus 4.6 with a 1M token context window.
## Testing
- Added a regression test (`maps allowlist aliases through
modelOverrides to
provider IDs`) under the existing `availableModels allowlist from
settings`
suite.
- Full suite: `411 passed | 17 skipped`.
- `npm run check` (eslint + prettier) clean.
- `tsc` build clean.
- Manually verified end-to-end via `acpx` against a Bedrock-routed
Toolbox
Claude binary.
