Opus 5 Code Audit Test: 1M Context and Building Verification Layers
socialwithaayan · x · 2026-07-27
The thread highlights Opus 5's impressive specs in code auditing and deep research: 1M context, 90.8% on BrowseComp, and tripled problem-solving on ARC-AGI-3. However, real-world testing reveals its premium lies in volume—it reads and writes significantly more tokens (50%-65% more) than baseline models.
To counter inevitable hallucinations, the author emphasizes building a robust verification layer, sharing a prompt workflow designed to isolate claims, challenge them with counter-arguments, and trace sources.
