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.

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.

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]

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

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

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…
