I haven't noticed any changes either, but I noticed that opus 4.6 is now offered as part of perplexity enterprise pro instead of max, so I'm guessing another model is on the horizon

I just finished reading the full analysis on GitHub.

Yeah, THIS is something that I've seen happen a lot. Sometimes even on Opus with max effort.

		I missed that from the long issue, thanks for pointing it out! My experience with Opus today was riddled with these to the point where it was driving me completely mental. I've rarely seen those self-contradictions before, and nothing on my setup has changed - other than me forcing Opus at --effort max at startup. I wonder if this is even more exaggerated now through Easter, as everyone’s got a bit extra time to sit down and <play> with Claude. That might be pushing capacity over the limit - I just don’t know enough about how Antropic provision and manage capacity to know if that could be a factor. However quality has gotten really bad over the holiday.
