Claude Code Adds Feature to Block Specific AI Model Versions

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Claude Code, a tool designed to help users interact with Anthropic's Claude models, has introduced a feature allowing users to block specific model versions. This addresses a concern where unattended code refactoring sessions might see the AI model silently switch from a more powerful version like Opus to a less capable one like Sonnet without user intervention. The new blocking capability aims to provide users with greater control over the AI models they are utilizing for their tasks. AI

IMPACT Provides users with more granular control over AI model selection during automated tasks.
