THIS IS ACTUAL F*CKING GOLD Anthropic just dropped one of the best tricks for Claude Code. The idea: run Sonnet, Haiku and Opus 5.5 together, each one doing only the job it's best at. Better output and way fewer tokens, because every task lands on the right model. You just launch Claude Code like this: claude --model sonnet --advisor opus here's the split: → Sonnet 5 runs the session and writes the code → Haiku 5.5 explores files and docs in parallel → Opus 5.5 stays on call as advisor for the big calls → you stop burning Opus context on work that doesn't need it Opus only steps in at three moments: → before a plan locks → when the same error shows up twice → before calling it done Sonnet builds. Haiku explores. Opus reviews. JEV engineering is the same move one layer down: the forks that need no thinker (which file, which tool, retry or stop) go to JEV in milliseconds, and the big models only see the ones that split the full tree > Sonnet 5 runs the main session and edits
