The RAG-and-tool-use pair AWS launched on Bedrock in April 2024 both hit end-of-life at 08:00 UTC, after a staged wind-down: legacy in February, new customers cut off in May, hard kill in August. AWS named no replacement for either. Cohere had already pulled the originals from its own API back in September 2025 — along with command-light, base command, summarize, and its entire fine-tuning product.
