Bug Description
On Claude 2.1.76 with the Max plan, Opus 4.6 is supposed to default to 1M context window. However, my agents that use Opus by default (model:opus) still use the 200K context window, I have to change it to opus[1M] to enable the full window. This seems unintuitive considering this is now "default".
