What
Each model in Claude Code's built-in model table has an advisor rank, which affects which model Claude Code prefers when choosing one to act as an advisor. Several ranks went up:
one entry from 4 to 7
one entry from 5 to 9
one entry from 3 to 6
one entry from 3 to 4
Why
The order in which models are preferred as advisor has changed, so a different model may be picked than before.
