Opus is not allowed through the CC subscription
✅Solved
I'm using my OpenClaw withe the ClaudeCode subscription on the Team plan. It works perfectly fine using the Sonnet 4.5, and used to work with Opus too, but after the migration to OpenClaw (speakign of timefreame) I've noticed that when I asked it to spawn a Opus subaget it sad it can't do that because the model is not allowed. So I was bugging myself if it's because of the wrong names or what, but no matter what I try it always fails. It was suggesting to check whether I have Opus enabled, but yes, I do, because with CC and also through website I keep on using those models just fine, just the OAuth fails.
