# Fable 5 (Anthropic) — Frontier Coding Model, Premium Pricing
> **TL;DR:** Anthropic's Fable 5 is the public-facing version of Mythos 5 (cybersecurity-specialized). Redeployed 01.07.2026 with restrictions after June export-control crisis. Frontier coding quality (A+ in one-shot tests), but at **39× the cost of GLM 5.2** — the most expensive frontier model per token in our benchmark data.
## Overview
| Property | Detail |
|----------|--------|
| **Vendor** | Anthropic |
| **Status** | Redeployed (restricted) — back online 01.07.2026 |
| **Original launch** | 09.06.2026, blocked 12.06.2026 |
| **Relation to Mythos 5** | Public version of Mythos 5 (cybersecurity model) |
| **Pricing** | Premium — $3.12 for 62K tokens in atomic.chat benchmark |
| **Cost per 1K tokens** | $0.050 (highest in our dataset) |
| **Quality grade** | A+ (one-shot HTML5 Canvas physics, atomic.chat) |
## Export Control Crisis (June 2026)
Fable 5 was at the center of the June 2026 export control crisis:
1. **09.06.2026:** Fable 5 public launch
2. **12.06.2026:** Blocked by Trump administration after Amazon researchers jailbroke it via prompt injection
3. **01.07.2026:** Redeployed with "massive restrictions"
See [[../../tools/anthropic-claude.md]] for full timeline and [[../policy/ai-regulation-2026.md]] for regulatory context.
## Coding Benchmark Performance (atomic.chat, 01.07.2026)
| Metric | Value |
|--------|-------|
| Tokens generated | 62,158 |
| Cost | $3.12 |
| Grade | **A+** (best in test) |
| Scenes won | All three (train derailment, mid-air collision, monster truck) |
| vs GLM 5.2 | 39× more expensive, 2 quality grades higher (A+ vs B+) |
| vs GPT 5.5 | 2.7× more expensive, 1 quality grade higher (A+ vs A) |
| vs Opus 4.8 | 5.6× more expensive (Opus grade unspecified) |
**Key finding:** Fable 5 produces the best raw output, but at a cost premium that is **hard to justify** for production use cases where B+ quality is sufficient. The 39× cost spread vs GLM 5.2 is the largest measured in our wiki.

## Positioning
Fable 5 occupies the **premium frontier** position:
| Dimension | Fable 5 | Competition |
|-----------|---------|-------------|
| Quality | **A+** (best measured) | GPT 5.5 (A), GLM 5.2 (B+) |
| Cost | **Highest** ($3.12/62K) | GLM 5.2 ($0.08/36K) |
| Access | Restricted (export controls) | GLM 5.2 open-weights (MIT) |
| Specialization | Cybersecurity (via Mythos 5 lineage) | General coding |
**The premium question:** Is A+ worth 39× the cost of B+? For most production use cases, no. For mission-critical, zero-failure-tolerance tasks — possibly. The answer depends on the cost of verification vs. the cost of generation.
## Update: Fable 5 Praxis-Test & Comeback-Details (05.07.2026)
**Everlast AI** (Leo Schmedding) liefert detaillierte Praxis-Einblicke in Fable 5 nach dem Comeback:
### Fable 5 Low vs Opus 4.8 Max
Fable 5 Low ist **günstiger, besser und schneller** als Opus 4.8 Max. Damit ist Fable 5 Low für die meisten Anwendungen das bevorzugte Standardmodell — zumindest bis zum 7. Juli 2026, in der es in normalen Plänen verfügbar ist.
### Figma MCP Praxis-Test (Marcel, Senior Developer)
**Task:** Komplettes Frontend-Design für eine native Tauri-App (Corporate LM) via Figma MCP.
| Metrik | Wert |
|--------|------|
| **Zeit** | 1,5 Stunden |
| **Effort** | Ultra Code (parallele Agenten in Figma) |
| **Basis** | Nur Code, keine Screenshots |
| **Output** | Cover, Foundations, Flows, App Shell, Empty/Befüllte States |
**Highlights:**
- Erkannte Tauri-Applikation (macOS + Windows) ohne explizite Nennung
- Erkannte Satoshi Font → Hinweis, Inter in Figma durch Satoshi zu ersetzen
- 1:1 Übernahme der Kernscreens aus Webapp-Code
- Früher: Designteam Wochen/Monate → Fable 5: 1,5 Stunden
### Fallback zu Opus 4.8 deaktivierbar
Standardmäßig wird bei "normalen" Coding-Aufgaben zu Opus 4.8 geforwarded. **Deaktivierbar:** Claude Settings → Fähigkeiten → "Modell wechseln, wenn eine Nachricht markiert wird" → ausschalten. Chat wird dann pausiert statt weitergeleitet — verhindert Token-Verschwendung.
### Hixfield Integration
Fable 5 kann über **Hixfield MCP** für Erklärvideos genutzt werden (Hixfield Explainer).
### Community-Feedback (durchwachsen)
- Einige: Fable 5 vor dem US-Ban besser als nach Wiederkunft
- AI Arena (seriös): Fable 5 nach Re-Release in einigen Bereichen **besser** (Dokumente, Creative Writing)
- Für den Massenmarkt: Keine großen Sprünge mehr spürbar
- Prognose: Anthropic könnte $500/$1.000 Plan einführen
### Remote Labor Index — Fable 5 CAD-Stärke
Der Remote Labor Index (240 Freelance-Projekte: Grafikdesign, Architektur, CAD, Video, Audio, Data Analysis, Webdevelopment) zeigt: **CAD ist ein riesen Use Case für Fable 5**. Der "Remote Turing Test" wird 2026 als bestanden prognostiziert.
### Claude Science — Medikamentenentwicklung
Anthropic steigt offiziell in **Drug Development** ein (Claude Science). Nachdem Mathematik, Physik und Coding "gelöst" sind, kommt Biologie/Medikamentenentwicklung als nächste Disziplin.
### Vertikalisierung — Claude Produkt-Linie
**Bestehend:** Claude Code, Claude Cowork, Claude Design, Claude Finance, Claude Science
**Ausstehend:** Claude HR, Claude Analytics, Claude Marketing, Claude Sales, Claude Legal, Claude Logistics, Claude CAD, Claude R&D, Claude Accounting
**Trend:** Vertikalisierung von KI-Anwendungen.
