How to Create a Custom GPT Using Claude Opus 4.6

Introducing Claude Opus 4.6

Anthropic has launched Claude Opus 4.6, the most powerful and capable model in their entire Claude lineup. Building on the foundation of Opus 4.5, this next-generation model delivers breakthrough improvements in agentic coding, extended thinking, advanced tool use, and multi-step reasoning. Opus 4.6 is purpose-built for demanding professional and enterprise applications that require the highest level of AI performance.

🏆 Claude Opus 4.6 Performance

Opus 4.6 sets new industry benchmarks across the board:

• 200K+ context window - Process entire codebases, lengthy legal documents, and multi-file projects in a single conversation
• Extended thinking - Deep chain-of-thought reasoning for complex multi-step problems
• Agentic coding mastery - Autonomous code generation, debugging, and refactoring across full repositories
• Superior tool use - Precise function calling, API orchestration, and multi-tool workflows
• State-of-the-art safety - Industry-leading alignment with reduced hallucination rates

🚀 What Makes Claude Opus 4.6 Special

Next-Gen Capabilities

• Extended thinking for deep reasoning
• Agentic coding across entire repos
• Advanced multi-tool orchestration
• Enhanced vision and document analysis

Enterprise-Ready

• Built for mission-critical applications
• Consistent performance at scale
• Advanced workflow automation
• Ideal for premium monetization

I personally experimented with it and built a custom agentic coding assistant powered by Opus 4.6. The difference is remarkable — it handled complex refactoring tasks across multiple files, reasoned through architectural trade-offs, and delivered production-quality code with minimal guidance. The extended thinking capability lets it tackle problems that previously required multiple back-and-forth exchanges in a single response.

💡 Real-World Testing Results

The agentic coding assistant demonstrated exceptional performance in autonomous code refactoring, writing comprehensive test suites, and debugging production issues across a full-stack application — all while maintaining perfect context over a 150K-token conversation spanning dozens of files. The extended thinking mode was particularly impressive for architectural decisions that required weighing multiple trade-offs simultaneously.

Claude Opus 4.6 vs Opus 4.5: What's New
