Claude Opus no longer falls apart on low-effort prompts — but devolves into dense 'Claudeslop'

teortaxesTex observes that Claude Opus no longer collapses when given low-effort, throwaway prompts — it keeps taking largely coherent actions. Screenshots show it autonomously debugging a 3D test fixture: isolating an ordering bug where the zoom check pinned the camera, fixing grader defects in the honest build, and gating on a 14-fixture suite. The tradeoff: those actions serve some bullshit goal, and its language collapses into extremely dense 'Claudeslop'.
