You have two main options for configuring AWS credentials:
You have three options for configuring AWS credentials:

1. **AWS Access Keys (Recommended for Development):**
1. **Bedrock API Key:**
- Create a Bedrock-specific API key in the AWS Console. This is a simple service-specific authentication method.
- See the [AWS documentation on Bedrock credentials](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_credentials_bedrock.html) for instructions on creating an API key.

🚨 CRITICAL: Invalid AWS documentation link and non-existent feature

This documentation describes a "Bedrock API Key" authentication method that does not exist in AWS Bedrock. AWS Bedrock uses standard AWS authentication methods (IAM credentials, profiles, or roles) - there is no service-specific API key.

The linked URL (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_credentials_bedrock.html) does not exist in AWS documentation.

Additionally, I found no corresponding code in the Kilo Code codebase to support a "Bedrock API Key" authentication method.

Please verify this feature exists before documenting it, or remove this section if it was added in error.

It exists and works, and that link does indeed work.

2. **AWS Access Keys (Recommended for Development):**
- Create an IAM user with the necessary permissions (at least `bedrock:InvokeModel`).
- Generate an access key ID and secret access key for that user.
- _(Optional)_ Create a session token if required by your IAM configuration.
2. **AWS Profile:**
3. **AWS Profile:**
- Configure an AWS profile using the AWS CLI or by manually editing your AWS credentials file. See the [AWS CLI documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-configure-profiles.html) for details.
