Fix status: documented_behavior Workaround (not a fix): CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_BEDROCK_CONTENT_TYPE_GUARD=1 (non-streaming fallback) Misleading approaches: - Setting the guard env var as a fix — requests then fall back to slower non-streaming Other error fragments: - expected "application/vnd.amazon.eventstream" - API Error: Truncated event message received Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor): - https://code.claude.com/docs/en/errors#bedrock-streaming-response-has-an-unexpected-content-type (official_docs, unknown, documented_behavior): Docs: gateway transforming the binary eventstream is the cause; guard added v2.1.208, replacing 'Truncated event message received'.
