On a Max plan ($200/month), attempting to use opus[1m] is rejected with:

Opus 4.6 with 1M context is not available for your account.
Learn more: https://code.claude.com/docs/en/model-config#extended-context-with-1m

The linked documentation explicitly states:

On Max, Team, and Enterprise plans, Opus is automatically upgraded to 1M context with no additional configuration.

Error Message

Issue #23432 reports /context displaying 200k instead of 1M (a display/statusline bug). This issue is about the system actively denying 1M access at the account entitlement level. The error message confirms the account is not recognized as having 1M access — it's not just a display problem.

Description

On a Max plan ($200/month), attempting to use opus[1m] is rejected with:

Opus 4.6 with 1M context is not available for your account.
Learn more: https://code.claude.com/docs/en/model-config#extended-context-with-1m

The linked documentation explicitly states:

On Max, Team, and Enterprise plans, Opus is automatically upgraded to 1M context with no additional configuration.

This is different from #23432

Issue #23432 reports /context displaying 200k instead of 1M (a display/statusline bug). This issue is about the system actively denying 1M access at the account entitlement level. The error message confirms the account is not recognized as having 1M access — it's not just a display problem.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Be on a Max plan ($200/month)
  2. Open Claude Code
  3. Run /model opus[1m]
  4. Observe: "Opus 4.6 with 1M context is not available for your account"

Expected behavior

1M context should be available — per the documentation, Max plan includes it with no additional configuration.

Environment

  • Claude Code v2.1.97
  • macOS Darwin 25.3.0
  • Model: claude-opus-4-6
  • Plan: Max ($200/month)

Additional context

  • /model opus works fine (but gives 200k context per #23432)
  • /context shows 46.5k/200k tokens — confirming the 200k cap from #23432
  • No CLAUDE_CODE_BLOCKING_LIMIT_OVERRIDE env var set
  • CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_1M_CONTEXT is NOT set
  • The documentation says "If you don't see it, try restarting your session" — restarting does not help

Related: #23432

extent analysis

TL;DR

The issue may be resolved by verifying the account's plan entitlements and ensuring that the Opus 1M context feature is correctly enabled for the Max plan.

Guidance

  • Review the account's subscription details to confirm that the Max plan ($200/month) is active and correctly configured to include the Opus 1M context feature.
  • Check for any potential discrepancies between the account's entitlements and the documentation's stated features for the Max plan.
  • Verify that there are no environment variables (e.g., CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_1M_CONTEXT) or other settings that might be overriding the expected behavior.
  • Consider reaching out to support to investigate potential issues with the account's configuration or the Opus 1M context feature.

Notes

The issue seems to be related to the account's entitlements and configuration, rather than a display or status line bug like in issue #23432. The documentation explicitly states that the Opus 1M context feature should be available on the Max plan with no additional configuration.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Contact support to verify account entitlements and configuration, as the issue is likely related to the account's setup rather than a code or version problem.
