What problem does it solve?
Upgrading codebases, prompts, and API calls from older Claude models (Sonnet 4.0, Sonnet 4.5, Opus 4.1) to Opus 4.5 requires updating model strings, removing deprecated beta headers, and adjusting prompts for new behavioral differences, which is time-consuming and error-prone when done manually.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Cross-Platform Model String Updates: Automatically replace outdated model strings with correct Opus 4.5 identifiers for Anthropic API, AWS Bedrock, Google Vertex AI, and Azure AI Foundry.
- Deprecated Header Cleanup: Removes unsupported beta headers like the 1M context beta and adds required effort parameters for optimal Opus 4.5 performance.
- Conditional Prompt Adjustments: Applies targeted fixes for known Opus 4.5 issues including tool overtriggering, over-engineering, generic frontend outputs, and thinking sensitivity, only when users report specific problems.
- Use Case: A development team using Claude Sonnet 4.5 in their internal tooling can run this migration to update all model references, remove deprecated beta flags, and adjust prompts to avoid unnecessary tool calls or generic frontend designs.
Quick Start
Use the claude-opus-4-5-migration skill to migrate all Claude model references, API calls, and prompts in your codebase from Sonnet 4.0, Sonnet 4.5, or Opus 4.1 to Opus 4.5, including removing unsupported beta headers and applying prompt fixes for known behavioral differences.
