Strengths & weaknesses

Strengths

  • Effort is a dial, so the same model does cheap quick work and slow deep work
  • Unusually good at reading a large unfamiliar codebase before it changes anything
  • Generalises to puzzle types it has plainly never seen rather than pattern-matching

Weaknesses

  • Context felt tight for whole-repository work by the standards of its own moment
  • Verbose by default — explains its reasoning even when you only wanted the answer

SWE-bench Pro 45.89% is Scale's public-set leaderboard figure for claude-opus-4-5-20251101 — third-party, not Anthropic-reported.
