Problem Statement

Opus 4.7 is currently doing a significantly worse job on real coding tasks than Opus 4.6 did, even setting the effort level to max. It has been a real productivity killer.

Proposed Solution

At least for as long as Opus 4.7 is still not up to par, please re-enable setting Opus 4.6 as the model.
