 # Changelog
 
+## 2026.9.37
+
+- Every Sonnet now gets its full native 1M context window. Claude Sonnet 5.5 175K -> 1M, Claude Sonnet 5 175K -> 1M (it was capped), Claude Sonnet 4.6 200K -> 1M; max output unchanged (Sonnet 5.5 and 5 stay at 128K). The "standing Sonnet window = 175K" rule is gone. A new resolver gives `claude-sonnet-4-6` and every later Sonnet 1M in the resolved config and in `models.json`, so a user config that still pins a Sonnet at 175K is lifted at load and future Sonnets need no patch. No beta header is needed (Anthropic serves 1M by default on these models).
+- Live probe: a 463,749-token prompt to `claude-sonnet-5-5` through the harness's Anthropic adapter completed normally; a raw 648,450-token request returned HTTP 200.
+- Folded into the family 82 exact replay (32 files); verifier checks 82.13-82.17. Roll back with `npm i -g johns-harness@2026.9.36`.

 ## 2026.9.36
 
 - Family 82 (daily model integration, 2026-09-29): Claude Sonnet 5.5 (`claude-sonnet-5-5`) ships on `anthropic`. Card data from the official model page checked 2026-09-29: $2/$10 per MTok, cache read $0.20, 5m write $2.50, 1h write $4, 1M native context and 128K max output, adaptive thinking on by default (effort `low` through `max`, default `high`; `between_tools` is the lowest setting), and non-default `temperature`/`top_p`/`top_k` are rejected. `contextWindow` stays the standing 175K Sonnet window (owner caps do not change). Live probe 2026-09-29: the default request and the `thinking: adaptive` + `output_config.effort: xhigh` request both returned 200.

 Second run of the daily model integration. One new model appeared in the authenticated provider lists since the 2026-09-28 run (Anthropic 12 -> 13: `claude-sonnet-5-5`); it is registered from its official page (checked 2026-09-29) and was wire-probed live.
 
 - **Claude Sonnet 5.5** (`claude-sonnet-5-5`, anthropic, native Messages). Source: <https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/models/sonnet-5-5/overview> (checked 2026-09-29). Fixed API id, no date suffix (Bedrock `anthropic.claude-sonnet-5-5`); released 2026-09-28. 1,000,000-token native context, 128,000 max output (300K on the Message Batches API with the `output-300k-2026-03-24` beta header), text + images in and text out, knowledge cutoff Jun 2026. Adaptive thinking is on by default: the manual-budget thinking type is not accepted, effort is `low|medium|high|xhigh|max` with default `high`, and `between_tools` is the lowest setting (turns up-front thinking off at high or below). Non-default `temperature`/`top_p`/`top_k` return 400. Pricing $2/$10 per MTok, cache reads $0.20, 5m cache writes $2.50, 1h cache writes $4, Batch API 50% off. The authenticated Models API list agrees (max_input_tokens 1,000,000; max_tokens 128,000; adaptive thinking with `enabled: false`; effort incl. xhigh/max).
-- **Context cap.** `contextWindow` ships at 175000, the standing Sonnet window (the Sonnet 5 value retained; owner caps do not change and a new model in a family keeps the latest cap of that family). `maxTokens` 128000. Sonnet 5's entry is untouched.
+- **Context window.** `contextWindow` is the full native 1,000,000 (since 2026.9.37; it first shipped at 175000). `maxTokens` 128000. See "Sonnet native 1M" below.
 - **Gates.** `supportsXhigh` gains an exact branch for `claude-sonnet-5-5` on anthropic; the Anthropic adapter's effort map accepts the id with 1:1 low/medium/high/xhigh/max (minimal -> low) and the temperature gate includes it, because non-default sampling params are 400s on this model. Adaptive thinking needs no new code: the existing `sonnet-5` substring gate already covers it. `XHIGH_MODEL_REFS` lists `anthropic/claude-sonnet-5-5` in all 12 copies, directly in front of the family 78 Opus 5.5 ref (families 78/80 refs stay contiguous).
 - **Aliases** (marker `JOHNNESS_PATCH_SONNET_55_MODEL`, a fourth `Object.assign(DEFAULT_MODEL_ALIASES, ...)` block in all 14 copies): `sonnet` -> `anthropic/claude-sonnet-5-5`, `sonnet5` -> `anthropic/claude-sonnet-5` (the previous version stays reachable). `opus`/`opus5`, the GPT-6/GPT-5.6 lines, `grok`, `astra`, `fable`, `sonnet46`, `deepseek` (Flash), `deepseek-pro`, `muse`, `gemini`, `banana`, `terra` and `image` are unchanged. On the next config load the family 79 migration moves a user alias that pins Sonnet 5 under `sonnet` to Sonnet 5.5 and gives the old model `sonnet5`; cross-line pins (e.g. `sonnet` on a Fable model) stay.
-- **Exact replay.** `scripts/patch-sonnet-5-5-model.py` with `patches/sonnet-5-5/changes.json` (29 files: catalog, `models.js`, the Anthropic adapter, 12 thinking copies, 14 alias copies). Preimage/postimage sha256, all-file preflight, `--check`, `--record`, `--dependency-only`, `--present-only`. Families 67, 78 and 80 reverse the family 82 edits before their historical hash checks (80 re-layers them after replaying its own edits); the family 67 replay fixture now replays 78, 79, 80 and 82 in order.

 - Verifier 82.1-82.12; 63.12 now expects four contract blocks. Tests: `tests/sonnet-5-5-model.test.mjs` (catalog in both the overlay and installed pi-ai, the adaptive effort/temperature wire path, 12 xhigh copies, 14 alias copies, the family 79 migration, exact replay and older-family replays). Counts pinned by `fable-51-model` (anthropic catalog 30 -> 31) and the family 79 migration fixture were updated.
 - Live probes 2026-09-29 (128 max tokens, "Answer with the single word: OK"): the default request and the harness-shaped `thinking: {type: "adaptive"}` + `output_config: {effort: "xhigh"}` request both returned HTTP 200 with `stop_reason: end_turn`.

+### Sonnet native 1M (2026.9.37)
+
+John's rule, permanent: every Sonnet model gets its full native 1M context window. The old "standing Sonnet window = 175K" is gone from the source, the patch scripts, the verifier and the daily model integration cron.
+
+- **Catalog.** `claude-sonnet-5-5` 175000 -> 1000000, `claude-sonnet-5` 175000 -> 1000000 (it was capped), `claude-sonnet-4-6` 200000 -> 1000000. Max output unchanged (128K, 128K, 64K). Sonnet 4.5 and older keep 200K (their native window). Family 61's Sonnet 5 tuple in `scripts/patch-batteries-included-defaults.py` moves with the catalog so family 61 still regenerates the exact text.
+- **Resolver.** `resolveJohnnessSonnetNativeContextWindow(providerId, modelId)` returns 1e6 for `anthropic` + `claude-sonnet-4-6` and every later Sonnet (`claude-sonnet-<major>[-<minor>][-<date>]`, major > 4 or 4.6+), so a future Sonnet is 1M without a patch. It runs first in `applyModelDefaults` (all 14 alias copies), which lifts a stale user config that still pins a Sonnet at 175K to 1M at load, and in both `models-config` copies (`applyJohnnessSonnetNativeContextWindows` after the Opus caps) for the raw snapshot that writes `models.json`. Compaction, preflight and session snapshots read the resolved window, so they follow.
+- **No beta header.** Anthropic serves 1M by default on these models (`max_input_tokens` 1,000,000 in the authenticated Models API for `claude-sonnet-5-5`, `claude-sonnet-5` and `claude-sonnet-4-6`, checked 2026-09-29; the context-windows doc says 1M models need no beta header). The harness sends only `fine-grained-tool-streaming-2025-05-14`.
+- **Live probe 2026-09-29** through the harness's own pi-ai Anthropic adapter (`completeSimple`, API key auth): a 463,749-token prompt (count_tokens) to `claude-sonnet-5-5` returned `stop: end_turn` with the correct needle answer; usage reported 463,756 total tokens. A raw 648,450-token request also returned HTTP 200 (`usage.input_tokens` 648450).
+- Folded into the family 82 exact replay (32 files: + `scripts/patch-batteries-included-defaults.py` and the two `models-config` copies). Verifier 82.13-82.17. Tests in `tests/sonnet-5-5-model.test.mjs` execute the resolver in all 16 copies and run the real `loadConfig` in three loader bundles against an isolated state dir with a stale 175K config.
+- Roll back with `npm i -g johns-harness@2026.9.36`.
