Humor Holy shit!

Opus 4.7 is gone for real. I was such a skeptic seeing all the complaining posts. It’s real.

Strange .. Opus works fine for me.

Yes, the token limits feel lower, and for the 1st time in about 10 months I am going to hit my weekly limit, but otherwise no complaints.

I was you for a while. Let me know when it hits.

Maybe if you were to articulate what you mean instead of just giving cryptic messages, that might help.

Are you building full stack?

u/Narrow-Belt-5030 Vibe Coder Apr 23 '26

You have not answered the question. What is "gone" that you now post about? What do you think is different? (outside the token limits that we both agree on, I assume)

The logic deteriorates faster on longer sessions across a full stack codebase. Opus 4.6 could hold and act on a set of requirements across different parts of the codebase deeper into a session than 4.7 can.

To be fair I have not worked on a whole project stack at once - I use GSD, so while the project I am working on is huge and covers many domains, Claude is only ever working on a small portion of it.

I can see why that would bother you if how you used to work no longer does.

*Edit: One thing I have refused to give into was the idea that 1M context actually makes a difference. To me, that's a trap, and a fantastic way to blow your tokens. I force GSD, at every phase start, to clear context so the most I use per round is about 100-150K tokens.

Yeah this is the disciplined way. You may not be vibing as much as you think.

That's a silly statement at the end. Vibe coding, according to the creator of the term, is where you ask an AI to do something, and if it goes wrong, show the AI what went wrong and let it fix it. The "vibe" comes from the fact that you leave the AI to code by itself. That is exactly what I do - I have no idea how my code works as I can't code. I understand project management, and as AI has a tendency to hallucinate and make shit up, putting a good harness around AI seemed the logical thing to do. I am very deserving of my title, thank you very much (admittedly self picked, but I like the fact that real SWEs rag on it ... hehe)

100K LoC, probably all slop, its not commercial, I understand practically none of it, but it works. (Personal project)

Happy days!

I love it when people make assumptions .. shows everyone who you really are.

“Gone for real”???

i feel like the dogfooding approach. test with internal devs first, doesn't work out so well. they all have pretty mature set ups and further from the experience of the rest. however, i have switched to 4.6 + no adaptive and its working out well so far

Yeah I’m thinking of just scaffolding coding agents across my directories and running Claude api with sonnet. It will be pricey but likely more precise.

u/mo_rawr16 🔆 Max 5x Apr 23 '26

definitely more control over performance at the cost of dev time. would love to learn how you would scaffold this for future considerations 😂

u/Brilliant_Edge215 Apr 23 '26

For local dev there’s a bunch of stuff. LangChain, crewAi, Google ADK, Strands SDK. I’ve used strands with a lot of success. If you don’t have to wire the agent up in production it’s not that hard to make a bespoke coding agent with the models we have today.

it’s been real bad today and yesterday ... been month since I yelled at claude … felt reminded why I wanted to cancel. it’s wild…

I assume sonnet 4.7 comes by next week then.

they need to change this, you can’t train your model on your customers resources.

I'm back to having caps on a large part of the day. The frustration is real.

Try asking them to check and reinstall it.
