How to read this profile

The visual layer above carries the decisions. These notes preserve the model, ranking, coverage, and family context behind the numbers.

Claude Fable 5.1 ranks #1 of 229 on the public leaderboard with a score of 82.74/100. It does not yet have enough sourced coverage for a verified position.

Claude Fable 5.1 is a proprietary model with a 1M context window. It uses an explicit reasoning mode, which can improve complex problem solving while adding latency and token use.

Generally available on the Claude API as `claude-fable-5-1` and across Anthropic, Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure. Fable 5.1 allows defensive vulnerability discovery, while exploit generation and some dual-use cyber work still route to Opus models. Eligible enterprise customers can use zero data retention until Enterprise Frontier Safeguards rolls out in phases beginning later in fall 2026.

Official exact-value snapshot from Anthropic's September 2026 Claude Fable 5.1 and Claude Mythos 5.1 launch page and system card, supplemented by Cursor's live CursorBench 3.2 table. We store only exact protocol matches, including the highest published effort where several settings are shown. OSWorld 2.0 uses the strict pass rate and records the paired partial score in provenance. Independent LiveBench and Vals evidence now clears the provisional external-consensus gate; the verified rank remains withheld until more weighted benchmark categories clear their coverage thresholds.

Claude Fable 5.1 sits in the Claude Fable family with Claude Fable 5. Its explicit predecessor is Claude Fable 5. 18 of 408 tracked benchmark slots currently have displayable evidence. Missing categories stay blank.

Its strongest eligible category is Agentic at #2, while its lowest eligible position is Knowledge at #2. particularly useful for coding agents, browser research, and computer-use workflows.

Frequently asked questions

How does Claude Fable 5.1 perform overall in AI benchmarks?

Claude Fable 5.1 ranks #1 out of 229 models on the public BenchAlign leaderboard, with a score of 82.74/100. Its evidence status is Estimated, and this profile shows 18 source-displayable benchmark rows. The label describes evidence depth, not a provider quality claim; inspect category rows before choosing a workload.

Is Claude Fable 5.1 good for knowledge and understanding?

Claude Fable 5.1 ranks #2 out of 56 eligible models for knowledge and understanding, with a public category score of 97/100. That places it in the current top ten for this category. Check the underlying rows before treating the aggregate as a workload guarantee.

Is Claude Fable 5.1 good for coding and programming?

Claude Fable 5.1 ranks #2 out of 147 eligible models for coding and programming, with a public category score of 79.4/100. That places it in the current top ten for this category. Check the underlying rows before treating the aggregate as a workload guarantee.

Is Claude Fable 5.1 good for reasoning and logic?

Claude Fable 5.1 has source-displayable benchmark coverage for reasoning and logic, but the public category table does not assign it a rank there. The individual rows remain available for inspection. A missing category position means the evidence threshold was not met; it does not convert the model's unmeasured work into a zero.

Is Claude Fable 5.1 good for agentic tool use and computer tasks?

Claude Fable 5.1 ranks #2 out of 142 eligible models for agentic tool use and computer tasks, with a public category score of 76.4/100. That places it in the current top ten for this category. Check the underlying rows before treating the aggregate as a workload guarantee.

Which sibling models are related to Claude Fable 5.1?

Claude Fable 5.1 belongs to the Claude Fable family. Related tracked variants include Claude Fable 5. A sibling link indicates shared lineage or a documented configuration relationship; it does not mean the variants have identical pricing, context limits, benchmark evidence, or deployment behavior. Compare before switching.

Does Claude Fable 5.1 have full benchmark coverage on BenchLM?

No. Claude Fable 5.1 currently has 35 source-displayable rows across 408 tracked benchmark slots. The profile exposes published, non-generated evidence and leaves missing categories blank until an exact evaluation is available. Coverage describes how much was measured; it is not a penalty added to an individual benchmark result.

What is the context window size of Claude Fable 5.1?

Claude Fable 5.1 has a documented context window of 1M. That figure is the maximum combined prompt and retained-conversation space reported for this exact model; it is not the maximum output length. The profile keeps output limits separate because providers often publish those limits independently.
