Anthropic Introduces Claude Opus 4 and Sonnet 4 with Leading Coding Benchmarks and Agent Capabilities

Anthropic has released Claude Opus 4 and Claude Sonnet 4, positioning Opus 4 as the world's best coding model with 72.5% on SWE-bench and 43.2% on Terminal-bench, and Sonnet 4 at 72.7% on SWE-bench. Both models are hybrid (near-instant + extended thinking), support extended thinking with tool use in beta, parallel tool execution, and improved memory via local file access. Alongside the models, Anthropic is launching Claude Code as generally available with GitHub Actions, VS Code, and JetBrains integrations, plus four new API capabilities: code execution tool, MCP connector, Files API, and one-hour prompt caching. Pricing is unchanged from prior Opus and Sonnet tiers ($15/$75 and $3/$15 per million tokens respectively), with availability on Anthropic API, Amazon Bedrock, and Google Cloud Vertex AI.
