What probably matters to youSection of the release
What
Prompts and warnings tied to a specific model now look through aliases: opusplan and opusplan[1m] count as Opus, haiku counts as Sonnet. You get fewer confirmations and fewer misdirected limit warnings when running on an alias.
Details
Replaces three separate yes/no alias checks: the main-model confirmation loop now skips confirmation for aliased models, the seven-day Opus and Sonnet limit notices no longer fire when the alias already resolves to that family, and the extra-usage upsell is suppressed for aliased models.
Any model that is not one of those aliases resolves to nothing and behaves as before.
