I’ve noticed significant improvement in all of these as well for the past 2 days, seems like I’ve been getting routed to Opus 5.2 already.
It’s definitely an amazing model.
The best part - super cost effective.
Thank god they’ve fixed it. Opus is so back.
First Impressions of Opus 5.2
I've had access to the model for two days, and I have a lot to say about it
1. So far, it's the best model at understanding your intent. It builds chains of reasoning from indirect cues, and it does this with great taste and care
2. Very thorough. In terms of thoroughness it reminds me of GPT-5.6 Sol, but it doesn't get carried away with unnecessary tasks. It stays on course and takes into account every nuance you've described
3. The best handling of skills, MCP, and plugins I've seen. It's the first model that calls a plugin at the right moment. It doesn't burn tokens at the start of a request exploring its working environment the way every other model does. It can call an MCP or plugin closer to the end of its work, and it has a very good sense of how and where to apply them
4. Very diligent. I gave it a list of 8 huge tasks, and unlike Opus 5 or Fable 5.1, it never once stopped to ask unnecessary clarifying questions. It got everything to a working state and carefully verified its own results
5. Computer use and browser use have been massively improved. Based on first impressions, it's even better than Astra
6. It no longer does things it wasn't asked to do. In UI tasks, Opus 5 added a lot of its own ideas and sloppy design elements. Opus 5.2, on the other hand, respects the project's overall design code and UI components and doesn't reinvent the wheel
7. Finally, the first Claude model that writes in plain, clear language. I understand it the first time
8. Very token-efficient, even within a single session. It completed a huge pile of tasks and used only 60% of the session's context window. Fable 5.1 would have compacted its context three times with that amount of work
9. The best work with subagents. The model sees the big picture and knows when to spin up a subagent to parallelize a task and speed up execution. The best delegation skills so far. Fable 5.1 is much worse at this
10. During my work, I ran into a situation for the first time where Opus 5.2 was working as a subagent for Fable 5.1. The Opus subagent pushed back on the task Fable had assigned, asked for it to be corrected, pointed out all the mistakes, and only then took the task on. Just wow!
11. Intellectually, it's at least on par with Fable and Astra, and possibly even better
So far, I'm thrilled with this model. I haven't seen a single downside

Remember when Sonnet 3.5 used to say:
“I’ve done XYZ and the application is now fully functional and production-ready. 🎉 "
Except none we built with it back then has ever really gotten there lol
Still had a super cool personality and novelty feeling and maybe better than Opus5 talking heavy Claudish.
Remember when we were all laughing at AI because it couldn't count the number of Rs in the word strawberry? Good times.

"Brazil is the country of the future... and always will be."
That line has been repeated for 80 years. It was funny for 79 of them.
Here is what the country of the future looks like in 2026:
8th largest economy on earth. 7th by purchasing power.
Largest net food exporter in the world. Feeds over a billion people.
108.2 million tonnes of soybeans exported in 2025. New record. $43.5 billion in revenue.
12% of the world's freshwater. Hydroelectric power at $30-50/MWh. Half the US cost. One-third of Europe. 87% renewable grid. The fuel is water and it's already paid for.
94% of global niobium. Second-largest reserves of rare earths. Second-largest reserves of graphite. America's largest alumina supplier. 50%+ of the territory still geologically unmapped.
Pix processes 6-7 billion transactions per month. 170 million users. 93% of the adult population. More transactions than any instant payment system in the Western Hemisphere. Brazil is two full technology cycles ahead of the US in public financial infrastructure.
Nubank: 110 million customers, $85 billion valuation, $895 million quarterly profit. Founded 13 years ago. Now the most valuable financial institution in Latin America.
Brazilian cooperatives generated R$656 billion in 2022. Agricultural cooperatives alone: R$437 billion. The top ten hit R$157 billion in 2024. Coamo is the largest company in Paraná by net revenue. No Bloomberg screen. No analyst coverage. Invisible to international capital.
Ibovespa started 2026 at 9.25x forward earnings. S&P 500 at 21x. Since then, 16 all-time records and +22% YTD. The gap is closing. Most American investors missed the move.
Farmland in MATOPIBA: $5,200/hectare. Iowa: $49,400. Both grow soybeans. Brazil harvests twice per year.
Private industrials in the South trading at 4-8x EBITDA. The identical company in Wisconsin trades at 10-15x. Same margins. Same machines. Same export customers.
1.8 million Brazilians in the United States built an invisible economy with zero institutional support. 18% self-employment rate in Massachusetts (3x the state average). Their children are graduating bilingual from American universities. They are the human infrastructure of the corridor.
R$140 billion in railway concessions just launched. 9,000+ km of new track. The logistics gap (the only structural disadvantage left) is being closed.
$565 million in US critical minerals investment committed before a bilateral deal exists. 54 countries attended Washington's minerals ministerial. China controls 90% of rare earth refining. Brazil holds the reserves that break that monopoly.
28 million hectares of degraded pastureland available for conversion. Soy yields growing 2.8% annually for 20 years (global average: 1.45%). 50+ GW of untapped hydroelectric capacity.
The country of the future was always waiting for the infrastructure to connect its assets with the capital that would develop them.
The infrastructure is being built right now.
The prophecy wasn't wrong. It was early.
Just launched: the brand new @SchoolofMotion website. Indeed one of the greatest projects we ever released.🤌 Shout out to the @SnowhouseStudio team → @thorirr, @GaluppoFernando, Darlan Santos, and Ryan French for collaborating on this.
🎉 Thrilled to unveil our latest Webflow project with @SchoolofMotion! We revamped their site to tackle inconsistent design, multiple Webflow frameworks, and confusing information architecture. The result? A stunning, interactive, and user-friendly experience. 🚀

Another beautiful website we did earlier this year. – at Sao Paulo, Brazil
Founder Coach needed a website that captured their spirit and mission.
We worked to create a simple but powerful one that reflected their values. Soft yet striking colors, clean typography, and subtle interactions help the users navigate through.

Finally found some time to properly try out @fable_motion. I was able to create this neat animation for @SnowhouseStudio in just a few hours. Super intuitive and lightweight app. Not to mention it’s beautiful UI 🤩 – at Sao Paulo, Brazil
