Follow-up bugs surfaced by the QA sweep on PR #27039
(https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm/pull/27039#issuecomment-4363363610).
1. Stop stripping output_config.effort on Bedrock + Vertex adaptive routes.
- Vertex AI Claude 4.6/4.7 accepts output_config.effort on rawPredict
(verified end-to-end against us-east5 / global). The strip helper now
no-ops for effort.
- Bedrock Converse routes output_config into additionalModelRequestFields
for anthropic base models so the requested adaptive tier (low/medium/
high/xhigh/max) actually reaches the wire instead of all collapsing to
identical thinking.
- Bedrock Invoke chat transformation (AmazonAnthropicClaudeConfig) stops
popping output_config from the post-AnthropicConfig request body.
- Bedrock Invoke /v1/messages allowlist (BedrockInvokeAnthropicMessagesRequest)
now lists output_config so the runtime allowlist filter forwards it.
2. Validate effort across Bedrock Converse so 'disabled' / 'invalid' / '' /
unsupported tiers (xhigh/max on Sonnet 4.6 or budget-mode 4.5 models)
surface as a clean 400 BadRequestError instead of 500.
3. ValueError -> BadRequestError throughout (AnthropicConfig.map_openai_params,
_apply_output_config, AmazonConverseConfig._handle_reasoning_effort_parameter).
Empty-string effort is now rejected (was silently passing the
'if effort and ...' short-circuit).
4. Floor reasoning_effort='minimal' at the Anthropic provider minimum
(1024 budget_tokens) via new ANTHROPIC_MIN_THINKING_BUDGET_TOKENS so it's
a usable tier on direct Anthropic / Azure AI Anthropic / Vertex AI Anthropic /
Bedrock Invoke (all of which 400 below 1024).
5. model_prices: dedupe duplicate supports_max_reasoning_effort key on
claude-opus-4-7 / claude-opus-4-7-20260416.
Adds regression tests across all five affected paths; existing tests asserting
the silent-strip behavior were updated to reflect the new pass-through and
clean 400 surfaces.
