Claude Sonnet 5 Release
People are discussing the upcoming release of Claude Sonnet 5 (codename Fennec), which is rumored to have a 1M context window, improved performance, reduced cost, and a more efficient code harness, while expressing concerns about accessibility limitations seen with previous models.
Fennec is the codename for the new Claude Sonnet 5 model. It’s supposed to have 1M context, be more powerful than Opus 4.5, and cost half the price. Word is it’s dropping tomorrow. That would explain pretty well why nobody’s bothering with RAG in Claude Code right now.

Fennec + Claude Code = GOAT 예정
