Three separate signals, not a quality score.
Claude Sonnet 5 is Anthropic's mid-tier Sonnet model, released June 30, 2026 and pitched as the most agentic Sonnet so far. Anthropic says it plans, drives tools such as browsers and terminals, and works on its own at a level close to Opus 4.8. Anthropic's docs now list it as a legacy model that remains available.
Anthropic's Claude Sonnet 5 model page lists a 1M-token context window and 128K max output tokens on the synchronous Messages API.

Where it fits
- Multi-step coding — implementing, debugging, and verifying changes in existing codebases
- Agents that drive browsers and terminals through multi-step tasks
- Agentic knowledge work that wants results near Opus 4.8 at a Sonnet-tier rate
- Long-context agent tasks within the documented 1M-token window
- Lowest-unit-cost bulk work such as simple classification (consider Claude Haiku 4.5)
- Pipelines that set custom temperature, top_p, or top_k — Anthropic rejects non-default values on this model
