Claude 5 Sonnet
Claude 5 Sonnet is Anthropic's flagship text and vision model with a 1,000,000-token context window and extended reasoning.
Anthropic's flagship reasoning and multimodal model
Claude 5 Sonnet is a large language model developed by Anthropic, released in June 2026. It supports text generation and image understanding, with a context window of up to one million tokens and a maximum response size of 64,000 tokens. The model includes selectable reasoning modes, tool use, and Model Context Protocol (MCP) server integration, making it suited for complex, multi-step workflows.
Claude 5 Sonnet is Anthropic's current flagship offering, designed for tasks that benefit from extended context, structured tool calling, and multimodal inputs. Its large context window allows it to process lengthy documents, codebases, or multi-turn conversations in a single session. The combination of reasoning toggles and MCP support makes it particularly applicable to agentic applications, document analysis, and developer tooling.
What Claude 5 Sonnet supports
Extended Reasoning
Supports a selectable reasoning mode that allows the model to work through complex problems step by step before producing a final answer.
Large Context Window
Accepts up to 1,000,000 tokens of input in a single request, enabling full-document or large-codebase processing without truncation.
Image Understanding
Processes image inputs alongside text, supporting tasks such as document parsing, chart interpretation, and visual question answering.
Tool Use
Supports structured tool calling, allowing the model to invoke external functions or APIs as part of a multi-step response.
MCP Server Integration
Natively supports Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, enabling connection to external data sources and services within agentic pipelines.
Long-Form Text Generation
Generates responses up to 64,000 tokens, suitable for drafting detailed reports, long-form code, or extended structured documents.

Documentation & links
Parameters & options
When enabled, the model uses adaptive thinking to dynamically decide when and how much to think before responding. Adaptive thinking is on by default in Claude Sonnet 5.
Controls how much the model thinks vs. how quickly it responds. Higher effort produces better quality but uses more tokens and is slower. Recommended: High for coding and agentic work; Medium for general use; Low for short, latency-sensitive tasks. Only applies when Reasoning is enabled.
