Claude Fable 5 launches — Mythos-class open to everyone
June 9, 2026 (PT): Anthropic released Claude Fable 5, the first GA Mythos-class model said to beat Opus 4.8, plus Mythos 5 for Glasswing partners.
Mythos-class models were limited to vetted Project Glasswing cyber-defense partners, with public access promised but undated. On June 9 (PT), Fable 5 opened to everyone.
Claude Pro and Max users get stronger capabilities at no extra cost. The caveat: about 5% of requests silently fall back to Opus 4.8, and cyber, bio, and chem domains are blocked.
