Family aliases updated: opus → claude-opus-4-8, sonnet → claude-sonnet-4-6 , fable → claude-fable-5 . All models include provider IDs for first_party, bedrock, vertex, foundry, anthropic_aws, mantle, and gateway. Capability flags now include effort, max_effort, xhigh_effort, adaptive_thinking, context_management, fast_mode, lean_prompt, and mid_conv_system. Evidence
