Anthropic announced Claude Opus 4.5, described as its most capable Claude model to date. Details are still emerging, but expect a new model identifier and behavior changes that warrant a quick A/B evaluation before switching defaults.
Flagship model upgrades often change code reasoning, tool use, and output consistency, impacting developer workflows.
Model changes can affect output formats, safety behavior, latency, and cost, which can break pipelines if untested.
