Research direction

Start by locating the local runtime configuration handling and references to AWS_RUNTIME. Check how the value is applied during local execution versus deployment; done means AWS_RUNTIME=provided is ignored locally while the deployment setting remains unchanged.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

enhancement

This should be allowed when running locally, basically just ignoring it:
AWS_RUNTIME = provided
because setting it to anything else will change the setting in the Lambda on deploy.
