Anthropic has released Claude Opus 4.7, a significant upgrade over Opus 4.6 focused on advanced software engineering, agentic workflows, and multimodal capabilities. Key improvements include better instruction following (now more literal), higher-resolution image support (up to 2,576px long edge, ~3.75MP), improved memory for multi-session tasks, and stronger performance on coding benchmarks. Early testers report 10–14% gains on coding tasks, 3x more production task resolution on SWE-bench variants, and better reliability in long-running agentic pipelines. A new 'xhigh' effort level is introduced between 'high' and 'max'. Cybersecurity safeguards are included, with a Cyber Verification Program for legitimate security professionals. Pricing stays at $5/M input and $25/M output tokens. Available via Claude API, Amazon Bedrock, Google Cloud Vertex AI, and Microsoft Foundry. Claude Code gains a new /ultrareview command and auto mode for Max users. Developers migrating from Opus 4.6 should note a new tokenizer that may increase token counts by 1.0–1.35x.
