## Why Included

AI Gateway now serves Claude Opus 5 with configurable reasoning, fast mode, fallbacks, and coding-agent setup; benign security tasks may still hit safeguards.

## Source Summary

Vercel AI Gateway now offers **Claude Opus 5** for long-horizon coding, visual work, and subagent coordination. **AI SDK 7** exposes reasoning from none through xhigh, while fast mode, multiple providers, and Zero Data Retention are supported.

## Practical Implication

Builders can route coding agents through the gateway, test low or medium effort before paying for higher settings, and configure ordered model fallbacks for tasks where continuity matters.
