You can ask Claude to run a pre-mortem on this scenario happening and get it to recommend pre-emptive solutions.
I irregularly use a framework similar to the one by Klein, Sonkin, Paul Johnson https://leonlins.com/writing/premortem to get one AI agent to consider the problems and potential solutions to vendor lock in.
If this is for Claude specifically, feels like most common alternatives (Codex) are viable.
If this is for AI agents generally, I've been backing up local model workflows as well
