The Fable 5 Harness. Free. One email, no payment.
How I still use Claude Fable 5 after it was removed.
Fable left my subscription on July 7. Before it did, I turned its judgment into files a cheaper model can load and run. The harness is the exact prompts and the method, and you can run it on your own account.
What's inside
The 4 prompts
Rebuild-a-system, the brain extraction, the war-game order, and the skill-upgrade loop. Copy-paste ready.
The CLAUDE.md wiring
The exact block that loads the banked judgment into every future chat, on every model, automatically.
The folder structure
Handover doc, war-games, domain briefs, ledger. Where each piece lives and why.
The honest answer
What this actually gets you after the frontier model is gone, and the one part that will miss it most.
