Claude 4.6 Opus is now available in Cursor!
It’s highly effective at long-running tasks and reviewing code.
Have you tried it yet?
Thank you! Cant wait to see how it does.
For anybody wondering, as I was:
- the max version is max reasoning effort, regular version is at high level (would be nice if there was a dropdown selection in cursor)
- when using max mode pricing is double except output tokens (regular is 25$, max is 37.5$ - according to anthropic pricing page, assuming cursor follows the same pricing - docs says “cost is about 2x”)
Maybe a question - when using max mode, are tokens below 200k tokens also priced at max price (double)? or does it apply only to tokens when context exceeds this limit (as anthropic page says)?
Great question @liquefy! It only applies when tokens exceed this limit (and actually dip into the extended context window)

Opus 4.5 really blew my mind, i’m very curious about the capabilities of 4.6! Awesome
Could you explain what’s the difference between Opus 4.6 (Thinking) and Opus 4.6? They both have Version: high effort . Does it mean that they are both thinking versions?
So effective, yet still so expensive 
wen 1million context window
