Claude Mythos 5
An invitation-only model sharing Claude Fable 5's specifications and pricing, offered for defensive cybersecurity work through Project Glasswing.
Last verified August 21, 2026 · 3 sources
Claude Mythos 5 is the unusual entry in the model line-up: same specifications as Claude Fable 5, same price, but not generally available. It is offered in limited availability to approved customers through Project Glasswing, scoped to defensive cybersecurity workflows.
What is different about it
Almost nothing technically — Anthropic’s documentation says it “shares Claude Fable 5’s specs and pricing.” The difference is entirely in access and intended use.
What it does not do
- No self-serve sign-up. Access is invitation-only, arranged through an Anthropic, AWS or Google Cloud account team.
- Not available on the Claude apps or Claude Code.
- Not a general-purpose upgrade over Fable 5. If you are not doing defensive security work, Fable 5 is the same model with an ordinary onboarding path.
Its predecessor is already deprecated
claude-mythos-preview is deprecated, with claude-mythos-5 as the migration target. That is worth
noting on its own: a preview model that was itself invitation-only still went through a documented
deprecation with a published migration guide.
