315315* `budget_tokens` can exceed `max_tokens` here; the [budget rules](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/build-with-claude/extended-thinking#budget-rules-and-tuning) explain this exception.

318How platforms treat the beta header differs. The Claude API and [Claude Platform on AWS](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/build-with-claude/claude-platform-on-aws) accept `interleaved-thinking-2025-05-14` on any model and ignore it where unsupported. Acceptance is not the same as effect: on models that reject `type: "enabled"` (4.7 and later) or lack manual-mode interleaving (Claude Opus 4.6), the header has no manual-mode effect; adaptive thinking interleaves automatically there.
