Anthropic replaces claude-fable-5 with claude-fable-5-1 and adds new claude-mythos-5-1 at the same $10 input / $50 output per MTok price point

notable

Anthropic removed the catalog entry for claude-fable-5 (input $10/MTok, output $50/MTok, context 1M tokens, described as "Next-generation intelligence for long-running agents") and simultaneously added claude-fable-5-1 (input $10/MTok, output $50/MTok, context 1M tokens, described as "For demanding reasoning and long-horizon agentic work") and a second new model claude-mythos-5-1 (input $10/MTok, output $50/MTok, noted "limited availability"). Both new models received batch-tier SKUs at input $5/MTok and output $25/MTok. Headline pricing was held flat. The addition of a second distinct model slug — mythos alongside fable — suggests Anthropic is differentiating its frontier portfolio, relevant to competitive positioning against OpenAI and Google on the model-capability axis.
