yeah i feel it too..it's thinking has been way too shallow recently..i was on xhigh doing deep reasoning & it couldn't remember the context from previous text. Didn't push back at me at all, kept changing it's opinions to whatever i said. Also the usage dies so fast.

I feel like it's definitely slower and more frustrating,

Many people are saying it's because it now sees your whole code-base and it isn't getting ahead of itself like it used to, not sure about this.

I have started using Codex to reason with Claude, Codex doesn't touch my code but frequently audits Claude's actions and it makes me realise how dumb Claude can be!

I was genuinely shocked.

It is becoming impossible to work with Opus 4.7. The calculations Opus 4.7 is making is not adding up and hence we feel like it is hallucinating. May be they tuned down RAG, context secretively.
