claude-opus-4-5-migration
Migrate prompts and code from Claude Sonnet 4.0, Sonnet 4.5, or Opus 4.1 to Opus 4.5. Use when the user wants to update their codebase, prompts, or API calls to use Opus 4.5. Handles model string updates and prompt adjustments for known Opus 4.5 behavioral differences. Does NOT migrate Haiku 4.5.
Full skill instructions
One-shot migration from Sonnet 4.0, Sonnet 4.5, or Opus 4.1 to Opus 4.5.
"high" (see references/effort.md)Identify which platform the codebase uses, then replace model strings accordingly.
Remove the context-1m-2025-08-07 beta header if present—it is not yet supported with Opus 4.5. Leave a comment noting this:

Do NOT migrate: Any Haiku models (e.g., claude-haiku-4-5-20251001).
Opus 4.5 has known behavioral differences from previous models. Only apply these fixes if the user explicitly requests them or reports a specific issue. By default, just update model strings.
Integration guidelines: When adding snippets, don't just append them to prompts. Integrate them thoughtfully:
<code_guidelines>, <tool_usage>) to organize additionsOpus 4.5 is more responsive to system prompts. Aggressive language that prevented undertriggering on previous models may now cause overtriggering.
Apply if: User reports tools being called too frequently or unnecessarily.
Find and soften:
CRITICAL: → remove or softenYou MUST... → You should...ALWAYS do X → Do XNEVER skip... → Don't skip...REQUIRED → remove or softenOnly apply to tool-triggering instructions. Leave other uses of emphasis alone.
Opus 4.5 tends to create extra files, add unnecessary abstractions, or build unrequested flexibility.
Apply if: User reports unwanted files, excessive abstraction, or unrequested features. Add the snippet from references/prompt-snippets.md.
Opus 4.5 can be overly conservative about exploring code, proposing solutions without reading files.
Apply if: User reports the model proposing fixes without inspecting relevant code. Add the snippet from references/prompt-snippets.md.
Apply if: User requests improved frontend design quality or reports generic-looking outputs.
Add the frontend aesthetics snippet from references/prompt-snippets.md.
When extended thinking is not enabled (the default), Opus 4.5 is particularly sensitive to the word "think" and its variants. Extended thinking is enabled only if the API request contains a thinking parameter.
Apply if: User reports issues related to "thinking" while extended thinking is not enabled (no thinking parameter in request).
Replace "think" with alternatives like "consider," "believe," or "evaluate."
See references/prompt-snippets.md for the full text of each snippet to add.
See references/effort.md for configuring the effort parameter (only if user requests it).
