Anthropic suspends access to Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5
The company confirmed a service disruption affecting claude.ai, API, Claude Code, and Claude Cowork. The incident started on June 13, 2026, at 00:50 UTC.
This disruption comes on the heels of recent access policy changes to fifth-gen models. Anthropic had announced it would move Fable 5 to a paid credit model, removing it from Pro, Max, and Team subscriptions after June 23.
Users are currently reporting issues accessing both models. Anthropic’s status page confirms the problem and advises monitoring the company’s website for updates.
