Anybody else having problem getting Opus 4.7 to write code? I had it pick up a month-old project, some small one off scripts that I want to modify, and it refused to even touch the code.

So far it costs a lot less, because I'm not going to be using it.

> it refused to even touch the code.

???

please i beg post the prompt and the refusal

I literally can not imagine a model refusing to do something

On the contrary, I threw a multi-threading optimization task on it, that 4.5 and 4.6 have been pretty useless at handling. 4.7 bested my hand-tuned solution by almost 2x on first attempt.

This was what I thought was my best moat as a senior dev. No other model has been able to come close to the throughput I could achieve on my own before. Might be a fluke of course, and they've picked up a few patterns in training that applies to this particular problem and doesn't generalize. We'll see.

No, see, we have to leave writing code to fully identity-verified individuals working on behalf of only the largest institutions now because what if they decided to write malware?
