What's Wrong?

Description

When selecting model claude-opus-4-6 via /model claude-opus-4-6, Claude Code applies a 200K token context window. Per Anthropic's model documentation, Opus 4.6 supports a 1M token context window.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Run /model claude-opus-4-6
  2. Observe the context window is 200K tokens

Expected behavior

Context window should be 1M tokens for claude-opus-4-6, matching the published model specification.

Actual behavior

Context window is set to 200K tokens.

Environment

  • Claude Code version: 2.1.231
  • OS: macOS (Darwin 25.3.0)
