What probably matters to youSection of the release
What
A new server-side configuration field, org_model_default.override_user_effort, lets an organization force its default effort level (effortLevel, which sets how much reasoning a model does by default) onto all its users for a given model. When this field is set to true, Claude Code's effort-level resolution uses the organization's default_effort_level instead of a user's own saved per-model effort setting.
Why
This gives organizations a way to standardize reasoning effort across their users, overriding individual preferences when the admin wants consistent behavior or cost control.
