What's Wrong?

When I select a model, such as opus it uses Opus 4.7 by default.

What Should Happen?

I expect Opus 5.5 to be used by default as is done on other platforms.

Still present in 2.1.284 (Claude Code)

Using 284 for both client and gateway.

BTW, as a workaround typing /model claude-opus-5-5 does work.

Also affects haiku:

❯ /model claude-haiku-5-5
  ⎿  Set model to Haiku 5.5 and saved as your default for new sessions
