feat: implement Bedrock v2 client

[priyansh4320]

Why are these changes needed?

The current Bedrock client (api_type: "bedrock") uses the legacy ModelClient interface, which returns flattened ChatCompletion responses. This limits access to rich content types and creates inconsistencies across providers.

# Create Bedrock V2 client directly
client = BedrockV2Client(
    aws_region=os.getenv("AWS_REGION", "eu-north-1"),
    aws_access_key=os.getenv("AWS_ACCESS_KEY"),
    aws_secret_key=os.getenv("AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY"),
)

# Make a request
response = client.create({
    "model": "qwen.qwen3-coder-480b-a35b-v1:0",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Explain quantum computing in 2 sentences."}],
})

# Verify it's a UnifiedResponse
print(f"Response type: {type(response)}")
print(f"Is UnifiedResponse: {isinstance(response, UnifiedResponse)}")
print(f"\nProvider: {response.provider}")
print(f"Model: {response.model}")
print(f"\nText content: {response.text}")
print(f"\nUsage: {response.usage}")
print(f"Cost: ${response.cost:.6f}" if response.cost else "Cost: N/A")

Feature Comparison: V2 vs Legacy Client

Bedrock V2 Client Features (autogen/llm_clients/bedrock_v2.py)

✨ New Features in V2

1. Rich Content Preservation

   • Returns UnifiedResponse with typed content blocks (TextContent, ImageContent, ToolCallContent, GenericContent)
   • Preserves all response metadata and provider-specific information
   • Forward-compatible with unknown content types via GenericContent

2. Structured Outputs Support

   • Full support for response_format with Pydantic models or JSON schemas
   • Implements structured output via internal tool calling (__structured_output tool)
   • Schema normalization and $ref resolution for Pydantic models

3. Direct Property Access

   • response.text - Direct text access
   • response.get_content_by_type("image") - Type-based content filtering
   • response.get_tool_calls() - Tool call extraction
   • response.cost, response.usage, response.provider - Rich metadata

4. Enhanced Type Safety

   • Pydantic-based models with validation
   • Enum-based roles (UserRoleEnum)
   • Type hints throughout

5. Backward Compatibility

   • create_v1_compatible() method for legacy format
   • Works with existing AG2 agent system

6. Improved Developer Experience

   • Cleaner API design
   • Better error messages
   • Consistent interface across providers

🔄 Shared Features (Both V1 and V2)

1. AWS Authentication

   • Multiple credential methods (access key, session token, profile, IAM role)
   • Environment variable support
   • Same credential handling as V1

2. Retry Configuration

   • total_max_attempts, max_attempts, mode parameters
   • Exponential backoff (standard, adaptive, legacy modes)
   • Identical to V1

3. Model Parameters

   • temperature, top_p, max_tokens (base params)
   • top_k, k, seed, cache_seed (additional params)
   • additional_model_request_fields for model-specific features
   • Same as V1

4. Tool Calling

   • Bedrock Converse API tool support
   • Tool definition formatting
   • Tool result handling
   • Same underlying implementation (shared utilities)

5. System Prompt Support

   • supports_system_prompts parameter
   • Model-aware system message handling
   • Same as V1

6. Image Support

   • Multimodal input (images in messages)
   • Image output (image content blocks)
   • Base64 and URL formats
   • V2 has better output handling with ImageContent blocks

7. Cost Calculation

   • Custom pricing via price parameter
   • Fallback to hardcoded model pricing
   • Same pricing database

8. Streaming Warning

   • Both warn that streaming is not supported
   • Both disable streaming if requested

Legacy Bedrock Client Features (autogen/oai/bedrock.py)

📦 V1-Only Characteristics

1. Response Format

   • Returns ChatCompletion (OpenAI-compatible format)
   • Flattened structure loses rich content information
   • Text-only content in message body

2. Limited Structured Output Support

   • Has response_format support (lines 151, 273-291, 337-361, 463-522)
   • Uses same internal __structured_output tool approach
   • BUT: Returns as text in flattened ChatCompletion format

3. Message Retrieval

   • message_retrieval() returns list of Choice.message objects
   • Requires manual parsing to extract content

4. No Rich Content Blocks

   • Images returned but not as typed blocks
   • Tool calls in OpenAI format (flat dict)
   • No content type filtering

Code Review Findings

✅ Strengths

1. Excellent Code Organization (autogen/llm_clients/bedrock_v2.py:1-793)

   • Clear separation of concerns
   • Well-documented with extensive docstrings
   • Logical method grouping

2. Comprehensive Testing (test/llm_clients/test_bedrock_v2.py:1-1049)

   • 1049 lines of tests covering all major features
   • Good use of fixtures and mocks
   • Tests for edge cases and error conditions
   • Protocol compliance tests

3. Shared Utility Reuse (autogen/llm_clients/bedrock_v2.py:66-74)

   • Reuses functions from legacy client: calculate_cost, convert_stop_reason_to_finish_reason, extract_system_messages, format_tool_calls, format_tools, oai_messages_to_bedrock_messages
   • Avoids code duplication
   • Maintains consistency

4. Documentation (website/docs/user-guide/models/amazon-bedrock.mdx:40-138)

   • Clear comparison between V1 and V2
   • Migration guide
   • Good examples

5. Proper Error Handling

   • Import guards for optional dependencies (autogen/llm_clients/bedrock_v2.py:77-91)
   • Validation of required parameters (autogen/llm_clients/bedrock_v2.py:262-263)
   • Graceful degradation for unknown content types (autogen/llm_clients/bedrock_v2.py:609-610)

🔍 Minor Issues & Suggestions

1. Low Test Coverage (21.64%)

Issue: Codecov shows 228 lines missing coverage in bedrock_v2.py

Suggestion: The test file has 1049 lines but coverage is only 21.64%. This appears to be because integration tests (test/llm_clients/test_bedrock_v2_integration.py) require real AWS credentials and are skipped in CI. Consider:

• Adding # pragma: no cover to integration-only code paths
• Mock more edge cases in unit tests
• Document which features require integration tests

2. Duplicate Schema Normalization Code

Locations:

• autogen/llm_clients/bedrock_v2.py:318-356
• autogen/oai/bedrock.py:196-270

Issue: The _normalize_pydantic_schema_to_dict() method is duplicated between V1 and V2 clients.

Suggestion: Extract to a shared utility module to reduce duplication:

# autogen/oai/bedrock_utils.py (or similar)
def normalize_pydantic_schema_to_dict(schema: dict[str, Any] | type[BaseModel]) -> dict[str, Any]:
    """Shared normalization logic"""

3. Structured Output Logic Duplication

Locations:

• V2: Lines 301-410, 508-544, 569-613
• V1: Lines 170-361, 473-522

Issue: Structured output handling (_get_response_format_schema, _create_structured_output_tool, _merge_tools_with_structured_output, _extract_structured_output_from_tool_call, _validate_and_format_structured_output) is largely duplicated.

Suggestion: Consider extracting shared logic to a base class or utility module.

4. Response Format Handling in __init__

Location: autogen/llm_clients/bedrock_v2.py:260

Issue: Response format is stored in __init__ but can also be passed in create() params (line 439). This could lead to confusion.

Suggestion: Document the precedence clearly or remove instance-level response_format in favor of per-request specification.

5. Tool Call Response Format Inconsistency

Location: autogen/llm_clients/bedrock_v2.py:674-684

Issue: In create_v1_compatible(), tool calls are formatted as dicts, but in the main response they're ToolCallContent objects. The transformation is correct but could be more explicit.

Suggestion: Add a comment explaining the format transformation for clarity.

6. Empty Content Block Handling

Location: autogen/llm_clients/bedrock_v2.py:615-616

Issue: If response has no content, an empty TextContent is added. This is good defensive coding but worth documenting.

Suggestion: Add a comment explaining why empty text is added (to ensure response.messages[0] always exists).

7. Hardcoded Model Pricing is Outdated

Location: autogen/oai/bedrock.py:892-899

Issue: The legacy client has hardcoded prices for only 6 models, all from 2024 or earlier. V2 client references this via calculate_cost() import.

Suggestion: Add a comment in documentation encouraging use of price parameter for accurate pricing, as model prices change and new models are added frequently.

📊 Architecture Assessment

V2 Client Architecture: ✅ Excellent

• Clean separation between protocol implementation and business logic
• Type-safe with Pydantic models
• Forward-compatible design
• Proper abstraction layers

Code Reuse: ✅ Good

• Shares utilities with legacy client where appropriate
• Avoids unnecessary duplication of AWS/Bedrock-specific logic

Testing Strategy: ⚠️ Needs Improvement

• Unit tests are comprehensive
• Integration tests exist but don't run in CI (requiring AWS creds)
• Coverage metrics don't reflect actual test quality
