On February 5, 2026, Anthropic officially released its new flagship model, Claude Opus 4.6. This update was only two months after the previous version, Opus 4.5, showcasing Anthropic's extremely fast iteration speed. The core direction of this evolution focuses on "autonomy" and "task persistence."
Core Breakthroughs: 1 Million Context and Stronger "Autonomous Awareness"
Claude Opus 4.6 is no longer just a conversational tool; it is evolving into an intelligent agent (Agent) with "autonomous awareness":
Ultra-large context window: For the first time, the Opus-level model introduces an ultra-large context window of 1 million tokens (in beta), capable of easily handling entire codebases or large volumes of financial reports.
Task Persistence (Agentic tasks): The model demonstrates stronger focus when handling complex tasks, actively identifying and correcting errors, significantly reducing back-and-forth instructions between users and AI, achieving "less talking, more productivity."
Full-Process Code Evolution: It has made significant improvements in code planning, debugging, and review capabilities, making it a reliable partner for developers dealing with large codebases.
Office Power Tool: Deep Integration with Excel and PowerPoint
To truly bring AI into office scenarios, Claude Opus 4.6 brings powerful features:
Financial and Chart Automation: Upgraded existing Excel integration, allowing the AI to independently perform complex financial analysis and generate spreadsheets.
PPT Creation Preview: Introduced a research preview of PowerPoint integration, where the AI can automatically create presentations based on industry research results, handling the entire process from data organization to visual presentation.
More Features, Same Price: Pricing Remains Stable
Despite the significant performance upgrade, Anthropic maintains a highly competitive pricing plan:
Input cost: $5 per million tokens.
Output cost: $25 per million tokens.
Currently, Claude Opus 4.6 is available on the official API, claude.ai web version, and major cloud platforms, allowing users to experience this powerful "brain" focused on programming and professional office work immediately.
