› On the evening of 9 November 2026, Anthropic released two models at once: Claude Fable 5.2 and Claude Mythos 5.2.
› It is the same underlying model in two versions.
› Fable 5.2 is the one anyone with a paid Claude plan or an API key can use, with extra safety classifiers for cybersecurity and biology.
› Mythos 5.2 ships without those blocks and only goes to vetted security teams and life-science researchers.
