Noticed this just now - all of a sudden i have 1M context window (!!!) without changing anything. It's actually slightly disturbing because this IS a behavior change. Don't get me wrong, I like having longer context but we really need to pin down behaviour for how things are deployed.
You can pin to specific models with —-model. Check out their doc. See https://support.claude.com/en/articles/11940350-claude-code-.... You can also pin to a less specific tag like sonnet-4.5[1m] (that’s from memory might be a little off).
sure - but the model hasn't changed. I'm specifying it explicitly. But suddenly the context window has. I'm not using Claude Code, this is an application built against Bedrock APIs. I assume there's a way I could be specifying the context window and I'm just using API defaults. But it definitely makes me wonder what else I'm not controlling that I really should be.
Anthropic is famous for changing things under your feet. Claude code is basically alpha software with a global footprint.
