Fable is a lot like Opus at its best. It's simply more reliable and feels a bit smarter. For my use cases, using it feels very nice, and notably better than Opus. It needs less direct guidance to get reasonable looking code and I don't have to watch it as closely.

For context, my Claude Code working style is quite heavy on discussion "to align" before implementing anything. We also use a good amount of Markdowns.

Oh yeah, it also is has way less "phrasing quirks" and is a clearer communicator. Opus 4.8 was a bit of loon with some of its writing styles. I had mostly straightened it out, but not entirely. It would use the most ridiculous flair at times.
