| Identity | email email: the pricing page states the perpetual Free Tier is 'available to users logged in as an AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) user or AWS Builder ID user', and 'Free Tier limits in the IDE are available only to Builder ID users', so the gate is a Builder ID or an IAM user under an AWS account. Whether a card is required at signup, and whether any hold is taken, is not stated in any evidence row: unknown; the record's chaining field asserts a Builder ID needs no card, but no evidence row says so. |

| Interface | cli inferred from the tooling the provider documents; not probed |

| Tooling | not stated |

| Composes with | an AWS Builder ID needs no card and no AWS spend, so this is a $0 lane to a frontier Claude model through an IDE plugin and a CLI; it composes with any repository and is the cheapest frontier-model access per unit of identity. |
|---|
| Reliability | no reliability event recorded |
|---|
| Notes | The gate is narrower than an email address: the IDE lane needs a Builder ID specifically, and IAM-user limits count at the account level. The 1,000 LOC Java upgrade is a separate quota and is the larger of the two in practice. |
