Summary
The release adds Amazon Bedrock Mantle chat-model support to init_chat_model and recognises GPT-6 structured output without explicit profiles. It also repairs invalid tool calls in create_agent and sanitises cache settings for fallback models.
Why it matters
These changes reduce provider-specific integration work and improve reliability for applications built on LangChain’s agent abstractions.
