Claude Opus 5 is Anthropic’s flagship model for demanding reasoning, coding, and long-horizon agentic work. It is particularly strong at end-to-end software tasks, code review and bug finding, visual analysis of charts and documents, complex office deliverables, and coordinating parallel subagents. The model maintains strong instruction following and tool use across extended tasks, while remaining effective at lower effort settings for workloads that prioritize latency and token efficiency.
All providers = every upstream serving this model supports it. Some providers = depends on which upstream handles the request. Default = the value sent when you leave the parameter unset.
