Anthropic retired claude-opus-4-20250514 on June 15, 2026, so the shipped MANAGER_LLM_MODEL default now fails with model_not_found on any fresh install that uses an Anthropic key. Swap in claude-opus-4-8, the designated replacement, across settings.py, .env.example, and the configuration guide. The commented Bedrock example moves to us.anthropic.claude-opus-4-8, the current inference profile id (the -v1:0 suffix was dropped for undated model ids).

Problem
The shipped
MANAGER_LLM_MODELdefault isanthropic/claude-opus-4-20250514. Anthropic retired that model on June 15, 2026 (deprecation schedule), so any fresh install with an Anthropic key now fails at runtime withmodel_not_foundthe first time a manager agent is invoked.DEFAULT_LLM_MODELis unaffected (Sonnet 4.5 is still active).Change
Swap the default to
anthropic/claude-opus-4-8, Anthropic's designated replacement for Opus 4. Updated everywhere the old id was pinned:settings.py,.env.example, anddocs/guides/configuration.md.The commented Bedrock example becomes
bedrock/us.anthropic.claude-opus-4-8: verified against LiteLLM's model registry, which carriesus.anthropic.claude-opus-4-8as the current US inference profile id (the-v1:0suffix was dropped for undated model ids).Mirrors the same fix submitted to buyer-agent, keeping the two repos' LLM defaults in sync.
Verification
Settings(anthropic_api_key=...)instantiates with the new default; no occurrence of the retired id remains in the repo.pyproject.tomlpins the privateiab-agentic-primitivesrepo (same reason CI on main has been failing since ~July 20); unrelated to this change, filing separately.
