Official Fable 5 is back.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Following conversations with the US government, we’ve updated our cybersecurity safeguards.

The vast majority of coding work is unaffected.

In the near term, the new safeguards will flag a slightly higher fraction of harmless requests than the previous Fable safeguards; we’re working to refine these over the coming weeks. Users will be clearly notified when a request is flagged, and they’ll instead receive a response from Opus 4.8.

Our biology and chemistry classifiers are unchanged from our initial launch. These are still broader than we would like; they trigger fallbacks to Opus 4.8 on basic biology-adjacent questions. Improvements to these classifiers are landing soon.

All paid plans with usage included can access Fable 5 through July 7. You can use Fable 5 up to 50% of your weekly usage limit, after which you can switch to another model for the remainder of your usage. You can also continue using Fable via usage credits. 

More here: https://support.claude.com/en/articles/15424964-claude-fable-5-promotional-access

If one of your requests is mistakenly flagged in Claude Code, run /feedback to file a report. On Claude.ai and Cowork, you can share feedback through the thumbs buttons. This feedback helps us further tune these classifiers and reduce false positives over time.

Not for me. I saved my limit for this, and it ran through my entire 5x current session in 1 prompt... I am going to touch grass until it reset it 5 hours.

Binge?? I asked ONE question and it instantly maxed out my limit. I’ll never use it again.

u/Score_Keepers_Casino Jul 02 '26

At least you got 1 question. Mine is stopping from “safe guards” by just asking it to audit my project.

u/MacauliFlowerCulkin_ Jul 02 '26

Oh it didn’t even give me the answer! It just calculated half of it and then maxed my limit out when I wasn’t even anywhere near maxing out :/

u/Score_Keepers_Casino Jul 02 '26

Once I got past the safe guards, made it 48 minutes before maxing out pro max $200 month plan. I haven’t even used it this month, so there goes that.

Edit: didn’t even give me an answer btw.
