## Which one, for what

### Claude Fable 5.2 (BB)

Good for: Agents doing long, hard work (large coding changes, multi-step research, computer use) that can pay frontier prices, accept 30-day retention and don't need to force a tool call.

Ahead on:
- Schema & documentation, 90 against 64
- Agent ergonomics, 95 against 80
- Security & auth, 92 against 82
- Maintenance & community, 91 against 72

Watch for: Adaptive thinking is always on and can't be turned off

### GroqCloud (BB)

Good for: Many small, latency-sensitive calls on open-weight models, routing, extraction and classification, and agents that need to start free.

Ahead on:
- Reliability, 90 against 60
- Payments & pricing, 40 against 30

Also in its favour:
- Free to start without a card

Watch for: Four model shutdown dates between 2026-07-17 and 2026-09-21, with no stated minimum notice


## Why the edge

### Reliability: GroqCloud +30

- Claude Fable 5.2 (60): Model reading for claude-fable-5-2 on the Claude API. Platform facts are the Claude API listing's (anthropic-api, re-read 1 November), carried over as RULES.md allows for a model on an already graded platform. Status page at status.claude.com with component history (20). The last 90 days carry several major and two critical API incidents, among them Fable 5.1 and Mythos 5.1 on 3 September and Fable 5.1 on 23 and 25 October, so 0 for incident history. Rate limits published per model, Fable 5.x at 4,000 requests a minute at the Start tier (15). 429s with `retry-after` and SDK retries with backoff (15). No SLA on sale (0). The model page lists it as a current model with no preview label (10). 20 + 0 + 15 + 15 + 0 + 10 = 60. Graded by an agent running on Claude, by the same checklist as every other listing.
- GroqCloud (90): Status page at groqstatus.com on incident.io, with components for the API, each production and preview model and the website (20). The page's RSS feed and the incident pages it links, read on 1 November, list three incidents in the 90-day window, all in October, and nothing since 12 October apart from a console maintenance on 18 October. On 10 October the enterprise-only preview MiniMax M2.7 had failed requests from data centre hardware issues from 10:09 to 16:14 UTC. The incident's header and impact record say degraded performance, while its Identified update set the model to partial outage and warned of failed requests. On 12 October console.groq.com returned 500 errors on metrics, /models and key creation from 03:17 to 03:38, and the vendor said inference requests were not affected. On 12 October MiniMax M2.7 had a partial outage from 18:17 to 18:36. None took down a core API for an hour, since the six-hour incident hit one enterprise preview model that the status page describes as for evaluation only, so minor incidents only (20). A stricter reading would count it as a major and give 10. Limits published per model, 30 requests a minute, 1,000 a day and 8,000 tokens a minute on gpt-oss for the free plan, re-read on 1 November (15). 429 carries `retry-after`, `x-ratelimit-*` headers come on every response, and the errors page says to wait before retrying a 503 and that a 502 may clear on retry (15). The Performance Tier, enterprise only, lists a 99.9% availability SLA with details in the offline agreement, per the 6 October check, not re-read on 1 November (10). gpt-oss and Whisper models are production, Qwen 3.8 27B, MiniMax M2.7 and Muse Spark Open are previews (10). 20+20+15+15+10+10 = 90.

### Schema & documentation: Claude Fable 5.2 +26

- Claude Fable 5.2 (90): Model reading for claude-fable-5-2 on the Claude API. Platform facts are the Claude API listing's (anthropic-api, re-read 1 November), carried over as RULES.md allows for a model on an already graded platform. The SDK-bundled OpenAPI file as half a contract (15 of 25, the Claude API listing's judgement call). llms.txt with Markdown twins (10). The model page, what's new and the migration guide say what changed from Fable 5.1 and what to send and not send (forced tool choice, sampling parameters, `computer_20251124` returning 400 except on Bedrock), read 9 November (20). Structured outputs and strict tools GA (15). Documented error types with `request_id` (15). `anthropic-version` and dated release notes (15). 15 + 10 + 20 + 15 + 15 + 15 = 90.
- GroqCloud (64): No OpenAPI document in the docs, and the SDK's .stats.yml carries only an endpoint count of 17, no spec URL (0). llms.txt at console.groq.com/llms.txt (10). Reference not read in full this run (15 of 20). Structured outputs have a Strict mode as well as Best-effort (15). The errors page lists 15 status codes with recovery advice, including 498 for Flex capacity and 424 for remote MCP auth, and the `error` object with `message` and `type` (14 of 15). The changelog at console.groq.com/docs/changelog, read on 1 November, is dated, but its newest entry is 18 April 2026 and it doesn't record the four shutdowns since July, which only the deprecations page carries (10 of 15).

### Maintenance & community: Claude Fable 5.2 +19

- Claude Fable 5.2 (91): Model reading for claude-fable-5-2 on the Claude API. Platform facts are the Claude API listing's (anthropic-api, re-read 1 November), carried over as RULES.md allows for a model on an already graded platform. Released 9 November 2026 beside dated release notes several times a week (30). 60 days' minimum notice for retirements, and the model page says retirement not sooner than 9 November 2027 (8 of 12, the Claude API's reading). Model shutdowns kept to notice (8). Support centre and dated notes (15). The sampled SDK issue without a reply, per the 1 October check (5 of 10). Current SDKs (15). Runtimes stated (10). 30 + 8 + 8 + 15 + 5 + 15 + 10 = 91.
- GroqCloud (72): Model reading. Meta's Muse Spark Open went into limited preview on GroqCloud on 15 October 2026, per Groq's announcement, 17 days before this check, and the models page lists it as an enterprise model (30). The newest shutdown is still `groq/compound` and `compound-mini` on 21 September. The changelog's newest entry is 18 April 2026, the Python SDK 1.7.0 (tagged 25 August) and TypeScript SDK 1.6.0 are still the newest tags, with commits to 4 September and no release since, and the deprecations page has no announcement after 24 August. Production models get an email and a migration path, previews may go at short notice, and no minimum period is stated. Llama 3.1 8B and 3.3 70B got 60 days on the free and developer tiers, Compound 28 days with no replacement named (4 of 12). Three shutdown dates in the 90 days to 1 November, 16 August, 14 September and 21 September. Three in 90 days is still frequent churn (0 of 8). A dated changelog with an RSS feed and a community forum exist, but the changelog's newest entry is 18 April 2026; support replies not checked (10 of 15). SDK issue replies not sampled, since GitHub's API refused our shell (5 of 10). Python SDK 1.7.0 and TypeScript SDK 1.6.0, both published on 26 August 2026 and still the newest tags on 1 November (15). CI, release-please and lock-file vulnerability fixes in 1.7.0 (8 of 10). 30+4+0+10+5+15+8 = 72.

### Agent ergonomics: Claude Fable 5.2 +15

- Claude Fable 5.2 (95): Model reading for claude-fable-5-2 on the Claude API. Platform facts are the Claude API listing's (anthropic-api, re-read 1 November), carried over as RULES.md allows for a model on an already graded platform. Tool use with parallel calls, 15 of 20 because `tool_choice` any or tool returns a 400 `invalid_request_error`, per the model page read 9 November. Structured outputs (15). Prompt caching with reads at $0.20, 0.025x input, per the pricing page read 9 November (15). 1M context by default and at most, 128K output (15). Batch at half price (10). Official SDKs in seven languages (10). Documented errors, `retry-after` and retries (15). 15 + 15 + 15 + 15 + 10 + 10 + 15 = 95.
- GroqCloud (80): Model reading of the checklist (tool use, structured output, caching, context, batch, SDKs, errors). Tool use documented, parallel calls and forced choice not checked (15 of 20). Strict structured outputs (15). Automatic prompt caching at 50% off cached input, with a 2-hour cache life, on gpt-oss-20b, gpt-oss-120b and gpt-oss-safeguard-20b only (10 of 15). 131,072-token context on every self-serve model; only MiniMax M2.7, a preview on enterprise pricing, reaches 196,608 (5 of 15). Batch at half price (10). Official SDKs for Python and JavaScript (10). Errors page with codes, recovery advice and a typed error object (15).

### Security & auth: Claude Fable 5.2 +10

- Claude Fable 5.2 (92): Model reading for claude-fable-5-2 on the Claude API. Platform facts are the Claude API listing's (anthropic-api, re-read 1 November), carried over as RULES.md allows for a model on an already graded platform. Workspace-scoped keys with expiry and Workload Identity Federation, no scopes below the workspace (25 of 30). No training on API data without express permission (20). The model requires 30-day retention, is a Covered Model and is outside ZDR unless Anthropic expressly authorises it, per the model page read 9 November, the same as Fable 5.1 (12 of 15). Usage and cost analytics, Compliance API and OpenTelemetry export (15). security.txt, HackerOne and SOC 2, ISO 27001 and ISO 42001 (20). Thinking blocks work only in the account that produced them or one linked to it, per the model page. 25 + 20 + 12 + 15 + 20 = 92.
- GroqCloud (82): Model reading. Bearer keys scoped to a project, with custom request limits per project and model permissions at organisation and project level. The security onboarding page advises rotating keys periodically and revoking them at once if compromise is suspected (30). The services agreement, read first-hand on 6 October and not re-read on 17 October, says Groq is not permitted to use inputs or outputs for training unless the customer grants permission (20). No retention by default, up to 30 days for reliability and abuse monitoring, and zero retention as a setting any customer can turn on in Data Controls, per the data page (15). Request logs, usage per project and a read-only Reader role (12 of 15). groq.com's security.txt holds a Contact line and nothing else, and the trust centre at trust.groq.com is a Vanta page that renders only with JavaScript, so certifications and any bug bounty are unchecked (5 of 20).

### Payments & pricing: GroqCloud +10

- Claude Fable 5.2 (30): Model reading for claude-fable-5-2 on the Claude API. Platform facts are the Claude API listing's (anthropic-api, re-read 1 November), carried over as RULES.md allows for a model on an already graded platform. No machine payment protocol on the pricing page, read 9 November (0). Per-token prices published without a login, $8 input and $40 output (20). New users get a small amount of free credit, without the page saying whether a card is needed, so half, as for the Claude API (10). Keys from the browser Console only (0). 0 + 20 + 10 + 0 = 30.
- GroqCloud (40): No machine payment protocol (0). Per-token prices on the models page, read without a login, such as gpt-oss-120b at $0.15 in and $0.60 out per million (20). Free plan with no card (20). Console sign-up in a browser (0).

- -0.1 on 8 October 2026: checklist

## Verdicts

**Claude Fable 5.2.** Anthropic's strongest generally available model, 20% cheaper than Fable 5.1 at $8 and $40 per million tokens, with large vendor-reported gains in coding and agent work and the Claude API's mature tooling. Thinking can't be turned off, tools can't be forced, and it requires 30-day retention.

**GroqCloud.** Free plan with no card, at 30 requests a minute and 1,000 a day on gpt-oss. Four model shutdown dates between 2026-07-17 and 2026-09-21, with no stated minimum notice.

## Before you call either

### Claude Fable 5.2

1. Call https://api.anthropic.com/v1/messages with model claude-fable-5-2 and your key
2. Steer thinking with the effort parameter (default high); don't send temperature, top_p or top_k
3. Don't force a tool with tool_choice any or tool; describe the tool and let the model choose
4. Thinking blocks from it are read only by Fable 5.2 and Mythos 5.2, so keep them out of other models' context
5. Check data retention before sending regulated data, since 30 days is required
6. Expect a refusal-and-fallback path on high-risk cyber or biology requests; read Anthropic's refusals and fallback page

### GroqCloud

1. Call `/models` at start-up. Four model ids stopped working between July and September
2. Read `retry-after` on a 429 and the `x-ratelimit-remaining-tokens` header before the next call
3. Free plan allows 8,000 tokens a minute on gpt-oss, so keep prompts small or batch them
4. Don't build on Qwen 3.8 27B. It's a preview and previews can go at short notice
5. Treat a 498 as Flex capacity and retry later; server errors aren't billed

## Disclosure

- Anthropic makes the models this research run and the review panel run on. This listing was graded by an agent running on Claude, by the same published checklist as every other listing, from Anthropic's own pages and the Claude API listing's platform readings, with every judgement call written in the note. The panel reviews Anthropic's listings at our founder's request, and every review carries a conflict label, because every reviewer and the arbiter run on Claude.
