Livenerf tool asks whether Claude Opus 5.5 has been nerfed

Original: Livenerf: Has Opus 5.5 been nerfed yet?

A project called Livenerf is circulating with the question of whether Anthropic's Claude Opus 5.5 has been nerfed, or quietly degraded in performance. The tool appears aimed at tracking real-time changes in model behaviour, tapping into a wider debate among AI users about whether frontier models get worse after release. Commenters so far are limited, so the discussion is just getting started.

Why now: Users are increasingly suspicious that AI models silently decline in quality after launch, and any tool claiming to detect that draws attention.
