Claude Code 2.1.293 makes Claude Haiku 5.5 the default Haiku model
On the Anthropic API, Claude Code now uses claude-haiku-5-5 as its default Haiku model: 1M context, $0.10 per million input tokens.
Why it matters. Tasks that Claude Code sends to Haiku switch model with no config change, so recheck their cost and output quality.
