  • Anthropic's Google-managed model table labels this ID '(deprecated)'. Google sets the dates and no Google retirement date was found.
  • Google model card (https://docs.cloud.google.com/gemini-enterprise-agent-platform/models/partner-models/claude/sonnet-4-5): 'Retirement date not sooner than September 29, 2026' - a minimum, not a shutdown date; that date has passed.
  • Do NOT apply the Claude API (anthropic) retirement date to this Vertex ID.
