Official release notes for the Claude Platform covering API updates, model releases, SDK changes, and new features from May 2024 to May 2026. Targets developers building applications using the Claude API, Anthropic SDKs, or Claude platform services.
Insight
The release notes cover comprehensive platform updates across multiple categories. Key model releases include Claude Opus 4.7 (April 2026), Claude Sonnet 4.6 (February 2026), Claude Opus 4.6 (February 2026), Claude Sonnet 4.5 (September 2025), Claude Haiku 4.5 (October 2025), Claude Opus 4.5 (November 2025), Claude Opus 4.1 (August 2025), and Claude 4 models (May 2025). Several models were deprecated and retired including Claude Haiku 3, Claude Sonnet 3.7, Claude Haiku 3.5, Claude Opus 3, Claude Sonnet 3.5, and Claude Sonnet 4/4 (retirement June 15, 2026). The 1M token context window became generally available for Opus 4.6 and Sonnet 4.6 in March 2026 at standard Pricing. Claude Managed Agents launched in public beta (April 2026) with features including multiagent sessions, outcomes, vault credential refresh for mcp_oauth, webhooks for session and vault lifecycle events, and memory support. The ant CLI launched for command-line API interaction with YAML resource versioning. The advisor tool enables pairing executor and advisor models for strategic guidance. Extended thinking, structured outputs, prompt caching, web search, web fetch, code execution, fine-grained tool streaming, memory tool, and context editing all moved from beta to GA. Agent Skills launched for extending Claude with organized instructions and scripts for PowerPoint, Excel, Word, and PDF files. Data residency controls via the inference_geo parameter allow US-only inference. The effort parameter replaced budget_tokens for controlling thinking depth. Automatic caching for the Messages API uses cache_control field to move cache points forward. The Rate Limits API allows programmatic querying of rate limits. Claude in Amazon Bedrock and Microsoft Foundry integrations expanded availability. Official SDKs released include Python, TypeScript, Go (GA), Ruby, Java (GA), C#, and PHP.
Hành động
To use new features, include appropriate beta headers such as managed-agents-2026-04-01 for managed agents, advisor-tool-2026-03-01 for advisor tool, or output-300k-2026-03-24 for extended batch output. For model migrations, replace deprecated model IDs with current versions: claude-haiku-3 with claude-haiku-4-20250514, claude-sonnet-4 with claude-sonnet-4-6-20260217, claude-opus-4 with claude-opus-4-7-20260416. Set inference_geo parameter for data residency controls. Use cache_control field in request body for automatic caching. Include beta header for 1M context window on older models (context-1m-2025-08-07) until April 30, 2026 retirement. Access Rate Limits API at /v1/rate_limits for programmatic rate limit queries. Install ant CLI for command-line API interaction. Access Claude in Amazon Bedrock via /anthropic/v1/messages endpoint in 27 AWS regions.
Kết quả
New model releases provide improved intelligence, extended thinking, adaptive thinking, and 1M token context window support. Beta features like Claude Managed Agents, advisor tool, and Agent Skills enable advanced agentic workflows. Deprecated models return errors after retirement dates. 1M token context window works automatically for Opus 4.6 and Sonnet 4.6 without beta headers. Structured outputs guarantee schema conformance with output_config.format parameter. Fine-grained tool streaming eliminates JSON buffering. Webhooks deliver session and vault lifecycle events. Vault credential background refresh maintains mcp_oauth credentials automatically.

April 30, 2026
- We’ve retired the 1M token context window beta (
context-1m-2025-08-07) for Claude Sonnet 4.5 and Claude Sonnet 4. The beta header now has no effect on these models, and requests exceeding the standard 200k-token context window return an error.
