Bug Description
I don't have access to fable5 anymore, despite not changing anything after yesterday's trial and still having tokens on my max plan.
what is happening?

There's an issue with the selected model (claude-fable-5). It may not exist or you may not have access to it. Run /model to pick a different model.

(I'm on the latest CC version, and it worked yesterday).

The United States will lose. China will create millions of copies, and another community will make one equal to or even better than Fable 5. Anthropic will lose...

Fable 5 & Mythos 5 have been disabled for all users. Anthropic was forced to do this by the US government:
