That tweet says: > Opus 5 can silently fallback to Opus 4.8 (without any notice) on the serverside if you hit a guardrail But https://support.claude.com/en/articles/16049681-why-claude-s... says (emphasis mine): > These checks cause Claude to _visibly_ fallback from Opus 5 to Opus 4.8 [...] You'll see a notice explaining that the model switched, and the response will be labeled with the model that answered. So who is right? I know for Fable I am visibly told, is this tweet trying to say it is silent against what Anthropic is saying? | ||

So, announcing the fallback is better than doing it silently, but the fact that Fable falls back frequently for the kind of work I do (a lot of security oriented stuff lately, but it falls back on seemingly random stuff, sometimes, too), means I reach for it less. Getting interrupted mid-task makes it much less valuable. If I have any suspicion I'm going to hit the guardrails, I'll use something else. | ||

Is some random guy on Twitter right, or official support docs that explicitly describe this scenario? | ||
