Description
Context
AWS announced support for Python 3.13 runtime in November 2024. When attempting to deploy to Localstack, however, I get the following error:
StackId: 'arn:aws:cloudformation:***:000000000000:stack/proj/00000',
EventId: '137610ba-70c5-44f1-89a1-2a906c535d2d',
StackName: 'business-analytics-serverless-local',
LogicalResourceId: 'MyLambdaFunction',
PhysicalResourceId: 'arn:aws:cloudformation:***:000000000000:stack/proj/00000',
ResourceType: 'AWS::Lambda::Function',
Timestamp: 2025-08-28T13:53:58.640Z,
ResourceStatus: 'CREATE_FAILED',
ResourceStatusReason: "An error occurred (InvalidParameterValueException) when calling the CreateFunction operation: Value python3.13 at 'runtime' failed to satisfy constraint: Member must satisfy enum value set: [nodejs20.x, provided.al2023, python3.12, java17, nodejs16.x, dotnet8, python3.10, java11, python3.11, dotnet6, java21, nodejs18.x, provided.al2, ruby3.3, java8.al2, ruby3.2, python3.8, python3.9] or be a valid ARN"
Expected Behavior
Successful deployment of Python 3.13 Lambdas.

Research direction
Start by locating the plugin's AWS Lambda runtime validation or resource deployment path and reproduce the reported Python 3.13 deployment failure. Done means a configuration using python3.13 is accepted and its Lambda deploys successfully against LocalStack.
