| Priority | Confirmed change and source |
|---|---|
| High Suggested | OpenAI added project-level service-tier selection in Platform settings, with organization-level restrictions that can apply across all projects. Official release · Dated platform release notesSource date: Supporting source excerptYou can now choose which service tiers projects can use in Platform settings. Organization settings can restrict service tiers for all projects. |
| High Suggested | Anthropic added organization-level controls for web fetch and domain restrictions; disabling web fetch makes Messages API requests using that tool fail with HTTP 400. Official release · Dated platform release notesSource date: Supporting source excerptOrganization admins can now turn off web fetch for their organization on the Capabilities page of the Claude Console. With web fetch off, a Messages API request that includes the web fetch tool fails with a 400 error. |
| High Suggested | The Agents API can pre-warm an OpenAI-hosted sandbox, and hosted sandbox compute is billed during active turns rather than idle time between turns. Official release · Dated platform release notesSource date: Supporting source excerptYou can now pre-warm an OpenAI-hosted sandbox before attaching it to an Agents API session. Prewarming improves latency by creating and configuring the sandbox before a user finishes sending their message. This means the user doesn't have to wait for all this work to complete. OpenAI-hosted sandbox compute is now billed during active turns. You no longer pay for idle time between turns. |
| High Suggested | The Responses API added optional 12-hour prompt caching; cache writes cost 2.5 times the input-token price. Official release · Dated platform release notesSource date: Supporting source excerptYou can now choose 12-hour prompt caching in the API. 12-hour prompt caching keeps shared instructions, tools, and context cached longer to benefit from lower cached-input pricing, even when requests are hours apart. 12-hour cache writes cost 2.5x the input token price. |
| High Suggested | Codex app 26.1002 fixed Windows sandbox refresh failures after updates and WSL worktree creation and chat-forking failures caused by path conflicts with Windows directories. Official release · Dated platform release notesSource date: Supporting source excerptFixed Windows sandbox refresh failures after app updates. Fixed worktree creation and chat forking for WSL repositories whose paths conflicted with Windows directories. |
| High Suggested | Claude Haiku 5.5 introduces compatibility breaks for code written for Haiku 4.5, including several request options and an older computer tool that can return HTTP 400. Official release · Dated platform release notesSource date: Supporting source excerptCode written for Claude Haiku 4.5 can break on Claude Haiku 5.5. Manual extended thinking (budget_tokens), the sampling parameters temperature, top_p, and top_k, and assistant message prefill can each return a 400 error. |
| High Suggested | Anthropic released API version 2026-10-21 and new SDK and CLI major versions that use it by default; those releases also contain unrelated breaking changes and switch from MIT to Apache 2.0 licensing. Official release · Dated platform release notesSource date: Supporting source excerptThe new SDK and CLI versions also have breaking changes that don't depend on the API version, and they are licensed under Apache 2.0 instead of the MIT License. |
| High Suggested | Codex app 26.1007 introduced GPT-6.1 Sol Ultrafast for Codex and ChatGPT Work, with access limited to specified plans and disabled by default for Enterprise workspaces. Official release · Dated platform release notesSource date: Supporting source excerptUltrafast is available on Pro $500 and eligible Enterprise and Edu plans.
