Unclear The further check a gateway model must pass to appear is not stated.

What

Before, the model list only showed models whose names contained "opus", "sonnet" or "haiku". When your provider is a gateway (a service that passes your requests on to models) and a further check passes, Claude Code now drops that requirement.

Why

Models a gateway offers under their own names may now show up in the model picker.
