When does this happen?

IF User implements a Claude API call without specifying model version, thinking, or streaming.

How others solved it

THEN Default to `claude-opus-4-7` as model string. Use adaptive thinking (`thinking: {type: "adaptive"}`) for complex tasks. Enable streaming for long I/O to avoid timeouts; use `.get_final_message()` to collect full response.

message = client.messages.create(
    model="claude-opus-4-7",
    thinking={"type": "adaptive"},
    stream=True
)
final = message.get_final_message()
