note: >-
  Amazon publishes a dated document history for the Amazon Nova User Guide rather than a versioned
  API changelog — the Bedrock Runtime API version itself has stayed at 2023-09-30 since launch, so
  every change below is a MODEL or capability change, not a contract change. Amazon Nova 2 keeps a
  separate history at /nova/latest/nova2-userguide/doc-history.html.
