When does this happen?

IF Sporadic 400 error 'tools.3.custom.input_examples: Extra inputs are not permitted' when using Claude Code (v2.0.42+) with AWS Bedrock through LiteLLM proxy.

How others solved it

THEN Downgrade Claude Code to v2.0.36 which does not send the unsupported `input_examples` field. Alternatively, configure a custom middleware in LiteLLM to strip `input_examples` from tool definitions, as the built-in `drop_params: true` only removes top-level unexpected fields, not nested ones.

// LiteLLM config with drop_params (does NOT fix nested fields)
litellm_settings:
  drop_params: true

// Workaround: implement custom middleware to strip input_examples
// (not shown in detail, but idea: iterate over tool definitions and remove 'custom.input_examples' key)
