Description

When using Claude Code with Claude Max subscription, the model picker (/model) displays Opus 4.7 as available options, but actually sets Opus 4.5.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Log in to Claude Code with Claude Max subscription
  2. Run /model
  3. Observe the picker shows:
  • Default (recommended): Opus 4.7 - Most capable for complex work
  • Opus: Opus 4.7 - Most capable for complex work
  1. Select any option
  2. Result shows "Set model to Opus 4.5"

Expected behavior

Either:

  • The picker should show the actual model that will be used (Opus 4.5), OR
  • Selecting Opus 4.7 should actually use Opus 4.7

Actual behavior

The UI displays Opus 4.7 as an option, but Opus 4.5 is set regardless of selection.

Environment

  • Claude Code version: v2.1.121
  • Subscription: Claude Max
  • OS: macOS
