Claude 4.7 Opus
We recommend using Claude Opus 5. It is Anthropic's latest Opus release with the same pricing and stronger agentic capabilities.
Opus 4.7 is Anthropic's strongest model and a meaningful jump over Opus 4.6 on CursorBench. It excels at autonomous, multi-step work: it holds intent across long sessions, self-corrects when it hits friction, and writes production-ready code without hand-holding. We recommend the high thinking variant for the best results.
Strengths
- Autonomous and self-directed. Opus 4.7 drives multi-step tasks to completion without losing track of the goal, even across large codebases and long conversations.
- Creative reasoning. It approaches problems from unexpected angles, explores alternative solutions, and produces more inventive code than its predecessor.
- Strong at planning. It maps out work before executing, catches edge cases early, and builds coherent architectures across many files.
- Reliable tool use. It calls tools purposefully, chains tool results into follow-up actions, and adapts when tool output surprises it.
Limitations
- Most expensive model. Consumes usage limits faster than alternatives.
- Can over-elaborate in long sessions where brevity matters more than depth.
Tools
Opus 4.7 has access to all agent tools when used with Cursor including:
Find files by name, read directory structures, and grep for patterns.
Generate search queries and fetch results from the web.
Read file contents, including images for vision-capable models.
Suggest edits and apply them automatically.
Execute terminal commands and monitor output.
Control a browser to take screenshots, test applications, and verify visual changes. See the Browser documentation.
Generate images from text descriptions or reference images.
Ask clarifying questions while continuing to work in the background.
Retrieve rules based on type and description.

Pricing
Cursor plans include two usage pools. Opus 4.7 draws from the third-party Other Models pool, which charges at the rates below. Individual plans include at least $20 of third-party Other Models usage each month (more on higher tiers). All prices are per million tokens.
| Name | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $5 | $6.25 | $0.5 | $25 |
All Opus 4.7 prompts bill at the base per-token rates in the table above, including when context goes above 300k. There is no separate long-context multiplier for Opus 4.7. Context windows up to 1M tokens use the same rates.
Opus 4.7 supports a thinking variant for deeper reasoning. We recommend using the high thinking variant for the strongest results.
