Claude Fable 5

Compare
anthropic/claude-fable-5

Anthropic's most capable generally available model, built for demanding reasoning and long-running agent work. Thinking is always on here: requests that try to disable it are rejected, so effort is the only dial. Claude Mythos 5 is the same underlying model with some safeguards lifted, and is invitation-only.
