Source Intelligence

DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

Claude Code v2.1.212

Per-Turn Effort Control

The API request builder now supports a per_turn_effort capability: when the server reports it supports per-turn effort, Claude sends an outputConfig.effort field on system-turn messages. If the server rejects this (400 with "effort parameter" and "not support"), the effort field is stripped and the model is added to a permanent blocklist for the session.

Evidence

"rejected output_config.effort; latching unsupported and retrying without it." (search for "per_turn_effort")

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
