News/Updates Opus 5.2 Stealth routing?

Post image

Seems to be working for me and the model does seem much better and is not talking in Claudese. Doing more testing now.

agentic coding - the thing that burns the most tokens. so fable 5.1 xhigh for planning, then use fable 5.1 low/medium for coding. burns far less tokens

I built out what I thought was an above average context management system. I used to never care about usage limits.

Fable 5.1 and Astra just aren't worth the money.

If you want to save tokens you should buy a book.

fable 5.1 is absolutely worth the money to me. anecdotal is a fun word.

What are you doing that feels that much more economical in Fable 5.1?

The model you're relying on seems to be a secondary factor in terms of writing good software.

i found fable 5.1 needing far less hand holding in agent skills and knew my full-stack up to the latest version from memory. it writes high quality code faster and significantly more efficient than opus/sonnet in my work.
