Proposed fix: [Amazon Bedrock] Context-window overflow has no single error code — model-specific messages ('Input is too long for requested model', 'input length and `max_tokens` exceed context limit'

Recommended action: Detect overflow by substring across all known variants (and the stopReason model_context_window_exceeded), then compact/truncate; keep the list in one place and extend it when adding model families. Consider CountTokens before sending. Option: Use a combined overflow matcher [evidence: documented_workaround] Steps: 1. Match any of the substrings from both frameworks (case-sensitive as given). 2. Also treat stopReason=model_context_window_exceeded as overflow. 3. Trigger compaction and retry once. Expected: Overflow handled uniformly across Bedrock models. Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): untested.
