Claude CodeNov 6, 2026View original changelog

Claude Code 2.1.319 reorganizes the /model picker so older models are grouped under a "More models" row instead of being listed after the current ones.

Key Takeaways

Older models move under a "More models" row in /model.
Current models stay at the top of the list.
The picker is shorter by default.
The cutoff for "older" is not defined in the release notes.
The change is part of the picker's improvement bullet, not a new command.
/model text also gets higher contrast in the same release.

A Shorter Model List

Claude Code 2.1.319 improves the /model picker. Older models are now grouped under a "More models" row, instead of being listed after the current ones. Current models stay at the top and the long tail of older ones is tucked away.

What Is Not Stated

The release notes do not say which models count as older, or whether the grouping changes keyboard selection.

Same Release, Related Polish

The release also lifts the contrast of faint gray secondary text, covered in its own entry, including details in /model.
