What's Wrong?

I'm on latest version of CC

current: 2.1.76 · latest: 2.1.76

I'm using /model opusplan, which is to use Opus 4.6 for plan mode, Sonnet 4.6 for other usage, but I'm still seeing 200K context size for either mode/model. Please update to give me the full 1M as I'm expecting, after https://claude.com/blog/1m-context-ga

What Should Happen?

I'm expecting the max context available to be 1M after this change for Max plan users like I am https://claude.com/blog/1m-context-ga
