## Background: Amazon Bedrock Guardrails
AWS Bedrock Guardrails enables configurable safety and compliance
controls for generative AI applications:
- Evaluates both user inputs and model responses against policies.
:contentReference[oaicite:8]{index=8}
- Can block or filter content based on harmful categories, denied
topics, PII, or hallucination criteria.
:contentReference[oaicite:9]{index=9}
- Guardrails are applied during inference API calls by specifying
`guardrailIdentifier` and `guardrailVersion` in the request.

Relevant AWS documentation:
- User Guide:
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/bedrock/latest/userguide/guardrails.html
- How Guardrails Works:
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/bedrock/latest/userguide/guardrails-how.html
- API Reference (GuardrailConfiguration):
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/bedrock/latest/APIReference/API_GuardrailConfiguration.html
Some AWS environments enforce IAM policies that require a guardrail to
be specified on every Bedrock API call (via a `StringEquals` condition
on `bedrock:GuardrailIdentifier`). Without this, Zed returns
`AccessDenied` and Bedrock models are completely unusable in those
environments.
This adds two optional settings, `guardrail_identifier` and
`guardrail_version`, to the Bedrock provider config. When set, a
`GuardrailStreamConfiguration` is attached to every `converse_stream`
request. When unset, behaviour is identical to before.
```json
{
"language_models": {
"bedrock": {
"guardrail_identifier": "arn:aws:bedrock:us-east-1:123456789012:guardrail/abc123",
"guardrail_version": "DRAFT"
}
}
}
```
`guardrail_version` defaults to `"DRAFT"` if omitted.
Release Notes:
- agent: Added `guardrail_identifier` and `guardrail_version` settings
for AWS Bedrock, enabling use in environments where IAM policies require
a guardrail on all model requests
