Changelog Update
Claude Sonnet 5 is Now Available on Dust
🎯 What is it?
We've added Anthropic's latest model, Claude Sonnet 5, to Dust. The claude-sonnet global agent now runs on Sonnet 5 automatically, and you can also select Sonnet 5 directly when building your own agents.
💡 Why is it useful?
You get access to the newest generation of the Sonnet model — with its improvements in reasoning, quality, and overall performance — without having to change any of your existing setups. The upgrade happens seamlessly behind the global agent.
⚙ How does it work?
The claude-sonnet global agent has been updated to point to Sonnet 5, so it's already using the new model. In the agent builder, Sonnet 5 now appears as an option in the model picker, ready to be assigned to any agent you create or edit.
✨ Concrete Use Cases
Here's how you could use it:
-
Upgrade an existing agent: Edit one of your custom agents and switch its model to Sonnet 5 to benefit from the latest improvements.
-
Quick everyday tasks: Simply use the
claude-sonnetglobal agent — it already runs on Sonnet 5, no configuration needed.
📈 Benefits for you
Access to a more capable model for your agents, improved output quality, and a smooth transition since your current configurations keep working as-is.
🚀 How to access it?
If your workspace is on a paid plan, Sonnet 5 is already available — no feature flag required. Use it through the claude-sonnet global agent, or select it in the model picker within the agent builder.
⚠ Please note: Sonnet 5 is not yet available for workspaces with EU data residency. We'll keep you informed as soon as that changes.
