Boris Cherny, creator of Claude Code, published 6 new tips specifically for Opus 4.7 (355↑, 84 comments on r/ClaudeAI). The core message: users are bloating context with too many installed skills, causing Opus 4.7 to eat tokens faster than 4.6. A separate 129↑ post confirms this — a user got better results after 'cleaning up my install' and removing excess skills. For Claude Code practitioners, the takeaway is that Opus 4.7 requires leaner context management than 4.6 did.
