    Episode notes · Positive tone

    Read excerpt

    Claude Opus 5.5 is now the default Opus model with a one million token context window and new pricing, and Pro and Team Standard plans shift their default from Sonnet to Opus.

    AGENTS.md Support, Server-Side Auto Mode, and Skill Sync (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    Claude Code now reads AGENTS.md in projects without a CLAUDE.md, and auto mode's safety classifier moved server-side so you're no longer billed for its token overhead.

    Restricted Mode, a Larger Context Ceiling, and the Pentagon Ruling (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    Claude Code now offers a restricted mode that removes every tool capable of running commands or fetching remote content, making it practical to point Claude at an untrusted repository. Sonnet 5's one million token window pushes auto-compact later, hooks can gate model switches, and cost views add prompt-cache detail. Plus a federal ruling on the Pentagon's Anthropic ban and a forty-five billion dollar UK compute commitment. In this episode: (00:00) Introduction (00:45) Claude Code Updates (03:24

    Sessions That Resume Themselves (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Positive tone

    Read excerpt

    Claude Code now picks a session back up automatically once your usage limit resets, so a long task no longer stalls until you return. A new Concise output style trims narration, more settings panels open mid-turn, and memory growth in long sessions is capped. Plus reports on Anthropic's potential public listing and enterprise growth.
