## Title

    [claude-code] [BUG] [bedrock] Subagent `sonnet` alias ignores ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_SONNET_MODEL and sends an invalid `us.` profile ID (regression of / same as #73556)

## Body

    ## Observed symptom
    [BUG] [bedrock] Subagent `sonnet` alias ignores ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_SONNET_MODEL and sends an invalid `us.` profile ID (regression of / same as #73556)
    
    - [x] I have searched [existing issues](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues?q=is%3Aissue%20state%3Aopen%20label%3Abug) and this hasn't been reported yet - [x] This is a single bug report (please file separate reports for different bugs) - [x] I am using the latest version of Claude Code
    
    On Amazon Bedrock, when a subagent requests the `sonnet` alias, Claude Code ignores `ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_SONNET_MODEL` and sends a built-in, region-prefixed profile ID (`us.anthropic.claude-sonnet-5-5`). Bedrock rejects that ID with a 400 error, and the subagent dies before its first tool call. The alias can come from agent frontmatter (`model: sonnet`) or from the Agent tool's `model` parameter.

    ). Bedrock rejects that ID with a 400 error, and the subagent dies before its first
    tool call. The alias can come from agent frontmatter (
