Claude Sonnet 5 becomes default model with 1M-token context and adaptive thinking

Anthropic has promoted Claude Sonnet 5 to the default model for Pro, Team Standard, and Enterprise plans, offering top-tier coding and tool use at Sonnet-tier pricing. The model ships with a native 1M-token context window and adaptive thinking enabled by default. Additional platform updates include general availability of Claude in Chrome for direct Anthropic plans and background subagent execution so parallel tasks continue running without blocking the main session.
