Anthropic restored access to Claude Fable 5 worldwide on 1 July after the US government lifted export controls that had forced a full suspension on 12 June. Mythos 5 came back only for a set of approved US organisations. The retrained safety filter that blocks the reported bypass also flags more harmless coding and debugging requests, which are redirected to Opus 4.8.
What changed
