    Claude Opus 4.5 is an Anthropic model for software engineering, reasoning and tool-using agents, with a 200K-token context window and standard API pricing of $5 per million input tokens and $25 per million output tokens. Claude Opus 4.6 subsequently shipped on 5 February 2026; the specifications and benchmark results here remain specific to Opus 4.5.

    What changed in this review:

    • Terminal-Bench is identified as Terminal-Bench 2.0.
    • Added a reported Opus 4.1 production breach as a family-level incident, without attributing the vulnerability to Opus 4.5.
    • Capability score 66 → 76
