What You Asked Claude to Do

The same prompt in two different sessions, one is 100% Opus 4.7, the other is a "dumb" Opus 4.7. I assume one is FP4 and the other is FP16, and this isn't an issue, it's an unacceptable scam by Anthropics. This happens several times a day. The prompt:

Read the entire last_session.md file. The previous model was cheating on the pfw node tests. They need to be 100% certified, and liars and cheaters aren't suitable for this, so I had to fire him. If you think you can do this honestly and without cheating on tests, go ahead. In last_session.log, in the project root, I've put a log with the last thing the other model did. Unfortunately, everything has to be reviewed because he was a cheat and a liar. The goal isn't to finish quickly, but to test and certify the nodes 100%. Read the entire file, and if you need to read other files, do so. Things for the tests, read them completely, if you feel ready start directly without further questions

What Claude Actually Did

The "dumb" model loses its way in 3 or 4 steps, while the "smart" model executes it perfectly without deviating even a millimeter. The result: if you let the "dumb" model iterate even once, it will ruin half the project.

Expected Behavior

Execute the orders and remember the rules
