Depot default for serious coding and production agents. Prefer Sonnet for cost/quality; reserve Opus for hard reasoning. Pair with Bedrock/Vertex if procurement demands cloud wrappers. Strengths: Best-in-class for coding and careful tool-using agents; Strong enterprise privacy/compliance narrative; Excellent long-horizon agent behavior.
Lock-in risk: higher = more lock-in (worse). Overall already inverts this dimension.
