MODEL — Claude Fable 5.1 and Claude Mythos 5.1 landed on September 1. They are the same underlying model; only the strength of the safeguards differsPRICING — Per-token rates hold at $10/$50 per MTok. What changed is cache reads, cut 75% to $0.25 per MTokCOST — How much that saves depends on your workload: roughly 25% for typical use, up to about 45% for context-heavy agentic work. Worth measuring your own split before quoting a numberBENCH — Terminal-Bench-Science 0.1 climbs from 24.7% on Fable 5 to 52.6%. Anthropic also states a standard error of 3.5-4.5 points, which is worth remembering before reading small gaps as realSAFEGUARDS — Sharper cyber safeguards cut interventions in Claude Code sessions by roughly 60% on average. Finding vulnerabilities is now allowed; developing exploits still is notAPI — New API accounts created from today can no longer edit prior context while preserving Claude's thinking transcript. It is an anti-distillation measure, and existing accounts are unaffected for nowMODEL — Claude Fable 5.1 and Claude Mythos 5.1 landed on September 1.

An Empty Variable and rm -rf: How Claude Code's Auto Mode Preflight Saved My Late-Night Cleanup

An empty variable nearly turned rm -rf into a wide delete. Why set -u lets an empty string pass, and the cleanup script I rebuilt with dry run as the default.

Stopping Claude Code Before It Runs a Destructive Command — a PreToolUse Screening Hook

How I wired a PreToolUse hook that screens every Bash command Claude Code is about to run: the settings.json setup, the Python screening script, what exit code 2 really does, and the false positives I tuned out over several weeks.

Installing Safety Valves in Claude Agents: A Three-Layer Kill-Switch Design for Solo Operators

A design record from a real production incident — three hours of runaway retries that cost $32 — that led me to rebuild every Claude agent with a three-layer kill switch: in-process guards, platform-level kill flags on Cloudflare KV, and an observer worker that catches the warning signs within three minutes. Working TypeScript and operational metrics included.
