Claude Opus 4.6 launches

Anthropic released Opus 4.6 with coding and agent-task improvements and a beta million-token context window.

Why it matters

Longer context allows larger bodies of material to be handled within a single task.

The model was available in claude.ai, the API and cloud platforms; the million-token context was in beta.
