Claude Opus 4.6 and Sonnet 4.6 now offer a 1M context window at standard pricing; it is the default for Claude Code Max, Team, and Enterprise users on Opus 4.6

Standard pricing now applies across the full 1M window for both models, with no long-context premium.  Media limits expand to 600 images or PDF pages.

    🚨Claude just expanded its context window to 1M tokens > the context window increased 5× > you can load massive datasets > up to 600 images or PDFs in a single request > even entire repositories, including on the free model This means the model can now keep almost the entire [vide…

    Tons of improvements shipped with this one: - Opus 4.6 1M is now the default Opus model for Claude Code users on Max, Team, and Enterprise plans. - No more long context price increase in the API. - No beta header required in the API. - Include up to 600 images in one request.

    I expect a lot more remarkable plots like this showing how fast the frontier models are progessing. Benchmarks aren't always everything, but hillclimbing is happening so fast.
  • @nicbstme Nicolas Bustamante on x
    My prediction is that we will get bigger and bigger context window. It's mostly an engineering and cost challenge to go from 1M to 10M context window with accurate understanding. So RAG is...

    Claude Opus and Sonnet finally got 1M context window. > can load entire codebases, 1000+ pages, 600 images/pdfs pages - all at once with minimal context loss. > at this scale, GPT-5 drops to 36% accuracy, Gemini to 25%, but Claude stays at 78% we're maybe 40% to AGI now. [video]

    Who wants to be a millionaire? Now you can be (with tokens). 1M Opus included in Max and up plans!
  • @llmjunky @llmjunky on x
    Anthropic 1M context windows are now GA. FOR STANDARD PRICING I hope this sets a precedence. I'm interested to hear your experiences on pushing past the 200K mark.
  • @nummanali Numman Ali on x
    Omg they buried the lead!! 1M context is now fully included in Claude Code for Max plans - NO extra usage cost - NO cost multiplier Boys and girls is time to get cooking /model claude-opus-4-6[1m]

    This is massive Reduces coding errors as your full code base can be ingested Openclaw compaction happens less often (more memory) Outperforms all other frontier models substantially
  • @cryptopunk7213 @cryptopunk7213 on x
    let's fucking go - now anyone using claude can load an entire codebase, 600 images or entire AI agents into a *single prompt* this means claude will have: better understanding, context retrieval and memory around the things you want to talk about context window used to be

    pov: devs realizing Anthropic no longer charges extra for longer context windows. [video]
  • @chatgpt21 Chris on x
    Claude just gave us 1M token context in app not just in the API 🤯
  • @sachinyadav699 Sachin on x
    > 1M context window Load your entire codebase. Load hundreds of PDFs. Load 600 images in one request. And people still think AI is just a chatbot [video]

  • @davidcrespo @davidcrespo on bluesky
    the removal of the price premium on 1M context suggests a real innovation has happened. my understanding was the cost to process goes up with the square of the number of tokens  —  was just wondering earlier how much of agentic tooling is just a workaround for lack of long contex…
