Opus 5 overturned my claude.md… i think

Opus 5 seems to be prioritizing solving problems than following instructions. Sonnet, Opus 4.7 and 4.8 (medium) followed my ICM structures perfectly but this 5.0 (high) is doing its own thing. Like yesterday, i pointed it to my ICM structure cold and asked for the usual updates; but instead of routing, it used grep to search.🤷‍♂️

Might seem like a small thing, but it threw me off. I know they’re non-deterministic by nature, but isn’t that what the ICM architecture for? I hope this is an isolated incident and it’d be best if the fault was mine. But is there anyone here who experienced the same thing with Opus 5?

Glanced upon a couple of “escaped from sandbox” articles recently so this might be bias on my part.
