Fable 5 is the biggest step up I’ve felt in our models since Opus 4.5 back in November. After 4.5 came out I uninstalled my IDE when I realized that I’d been doing 100% of my coding in a terminal for a few weeks. With Fable, it’s felt like Claude has stepped up from being a coding agent to a thought and design partner in building the product. Fable has judgement, taste, and dimensionality in a way that previous models didn’t, leading me to trust it more with the most complex work. I think the first time I had this realization was when I asked Fable to debug something. It is the first model I have used that was so methodical and precise, taking measurements and adding logs then verifying that it truly fixed the issue before declaring victory. There’s nothing in claude code’s prompting telling the model to do that, it’s just part of its personality. It really has this “big model smell” that I haven’t felt before.

Desktop Mode is here, one of the most loved WordPress plugins, and it's getting better every day. 🚀 #WordPress #WPDev #WebDevelopment #OpenSource #Productivity #WordPressPlugins #WebDesign #NoCode #Tech #Developer
This is a WordPress Admin. Look again if you don't believe me. I can't stop thinking about this project that brings a new look to what the WordPress Admin "means", with personalization and multi-tasking at its core. How is this admin look possible? It's the WordPress desktop-mode plugin. It's about reimagining the WordPress admin area as a desktop, allowing full customizability. Drag and drop images from the media into an article you're writing is just one of the things that stood out to me, but you can already spot a new plugins screen and a different way of seeing how posts are connected together. Try it out if you're curious (link below)

Seeing a number of benchmarks showing Opus is the best model for long-running work. Five tips for running Opus autonomously for hours/days: 1. Use auto mode for permissions, so Claude doesn’t ask for approval 2. Use dynamic workflows, to have Claude orchestrate hundreds/thousands of agents to get a task done 3. Use /goal or /loop, to nudge Claude to keep going until it’s done 4. Use Claude Code in the cloud, so you can close your laptop (easiest way is the desktop or mobile app) 5. Make sure Claude has a way to self-verify its work end to end: Claude in Chrome browser extension for web, iOS/Android sim MCP for mobile, a way to start the full web server or service for backend work
Can coding agents stay coherent over a 1 billion token budget? Can they build Slack from scratch? Rewrite a JAX codebase in PyTorch? Build a C compiler in Rust? Enter SWE-Marathon: a benchmark for autonomous long-horizon software work.

As part of #radicalspeedmonth at @automattic, we're working with @glomenar of connecting a Telegram bot to the local Studio app on your computer. It's come a long way in the first two weeks, here's a quick walkthrough of how it works. Next up is releasing it publicly. 🚀
