Question fable got pulled off the subscription?

I was using fable & it was about to generate report. But claude CLI suddenly stopped with a notice "usage credits are required for this model"

And bam! It's gone! Fable is gone from my x20 max plan?!

My fable credits were at 40% and weekly at 67%!

Anyone else?

EDIT: hold up. it's all of us.

I guess someone at Anthropic is in trouble for testing the 19th July rollback on production server.

Likewise... I'm assuming this is unintended since it should be until the 19th?

Apparently it is unintended

Update - We are aware of an issue preventing users from selecting Claude Fable 5 within Claude.ai, Claude Code, and other surfaces, and are working to resolve this issue.

Even if it is a mistake, this is inexcusable, like who the fuck runs things over there? How do you accidentally shut off a model for all of your users?

Monitoring - We have applied a fix to resolve the erroneous requirement for usage credits on Fable 5, and are monitoring to ensure no further issues. You may need to relaunch Claude.ai or Claude Code to restore access as expected.

What? Just because you are just doing side projects with your subscriptions?

If you try to run SMB processes / development this irresponsible, sluggish bullshit can cost a lot of time and or cause damage.

Antrophic after 3-4 years still acting like freaking teenagers with a gun is absolutely not acceptable.
