Claude Opus 4.7
Prior Anthropic coding champion. Still elite for agentic workflows and a strong fallback when Fable/Opus 4.8 capacity is constrained.
When to use it
Complex coding agents and careful editorial writing.
Watch-outs
Slightly behind 4.8 on newest agent benches; prefer 4.8 when available.
Benchmarks
Human preference ranking from blind pairwise chats. Higher is better; top frontier models cluster within ~50–80 Elo.
Artificial Analysis composite across agents, coding, science, and general evaluations (v4.1 weighting).
Percent of real GitHub issues resolved end-to-end. Strong signal for agentic coding usefulness.
PhD-level science questions. Separates frontier reasoning models better than saturated knowledge tests.
Harder multi-choice knowledge/reasoning suite than classic MMLU.
Frontier closed-ended academic difficulty across many domains.
