Comprehensive integration of Claude Opus 4.6 features and v2.1.32-2.1.37
releases based on Anthropic veille (8 items evaluated, score 5/5).
## Critical Updates (Phase 1)
### Opus 4.6 + Adaptive Thinking
- Extended Thinking section: Adaptive thinking replaces budget-based approach
- API syntax: thinking: {type: "adaptive", effort: "low|medium|high|max"}
- Deprecated: budget_tokens parameter no longer functional
- 8 references updated: "Opus 4.5" → "Opus 4.6" contextually
### Pricing Model
- Three-tier structure: Standard ($5/$25), 1M Context Beta ($10/$37.50),
Fast Mode ($30/$150) per 1M tokens
- Default model: Sonnet 3.5 → Sonnet 4.5
### Commands Table
- Added: /fast (toggle fast mode, 2.5x speed, 6x price, persists)
- Added: /debug (systematic troubleshooting)
## High-Value Features (Phase 2)
### Auto-Memories (v2.1.32+)
- Automatic context capture: decisions, preferences, patterns, gotchas
- Opt-in, per-project, separate from CLAUDE.md
- Comparative table: Manual CLAUDE.md vs automatic memories
### Context Management
- "Summarize from here": Right-click message → selective summarization
- More precise than full /compact
### Agent Teams Enhancements
- Hook events: TeammateIdle, TaskCompleted (events table)
- Agent frontmatter: memory field for pre-populated context
### Security
- CVE table: Claude Code v2.1.34 sandbox bypass fix
- Recommendation: Upgrade to v2.1.34+ immediately
## Contextual Additions (Phase 3)
### Xcode Integration (Feb 2026)
- Xcode 26.3 RC+: Native Claude Agent SDK support
- Same harness as Claude Code CLI
- Clarified: Agent SDK ≠ Claude Code (shared framework)
### API Breaking Changes (Opus 4.6)
- Removed: assistant-prefill (use system prompts instead)
- New: Fast mode API (speed: "fast" + beta header)
### Corrections
- PowerPoint capability: "No PPTX" → "Limited (add-in only)"
## Documentation
### Fact-Checking (Perplexity Pro)
- Opus 4.6 pricing: Verified via pricepertoken.com, eesel.ai
- Adaptive thinking: Verified syntax, effort parameter, API examples
- Fast mode: Confirmed 2.5x speed, 6x cost, persistence
- Auto-memories: Validated opt-in, per-project behavior
### machine-readable/reference.yaml
- 24 new entries: auto-memories, fast mode, debug, Opus 4.6, hooks
- Updated: 2026-02-09
### Metrics
- 14 files modified across 3 phases
- 11 sections updated in ultimate-guide.md
- Confidence: High (official sources + Perplexity validation)
