Use when deciding whether to route a task to Anthropic's frontier reasoning tier (Claude Opus) — architecture, multi-file synthesis, hard debugging, security reasoning, long-horizon agentic planning — and when NOT to (mechanical work belongs on a cheaper tier). Covers the Opus capability profile: 1M-token context, the cost/latency premium, adaptive thinking, the Opus-only effort ceiling (xhigh/max), task budgets, prompt-caching minimums, and high-resolution vision. Do NOT use for picking the balanced implementation tier (use claude-sonnet), the fast/cheap tier (use claude-haiku), designing the loop the model runs inside (use autonomous-loop-patterns), or for Claude API request syntax (read the claude-api reference).
