877877#### Thinking blocks are tied to the model and the conversation

879On the Claude API, Claude Fable 5.1 and Claude Mythos 5.1 read Claude Opus 5.5 thinking blocks; no other model does. A router or fallback that moves a conversation from Claude Opus 5.5 to any other model runs those turns without them. In the other direction, Claude Opus 5.5 reads thinking blocks from Claude Opus 5, from earlier Opus, Sonnet, and Haiku models, and, on the Claude API and Claude Models on Google Cloud (Google managed), from Claude Sonnet 5.5 and Claude Haiku 5.5, but not from Claude Fable or Claude Mythos models. Keep the conversation append-only (no edits to the `system` prompt, `tools`, or earlier messages mid-conversation) so the blocks stay valid; Claude Code, claude.ai, Claude Managed Agents, and the Claude Agent SDK already do. Enforcement matches Claude Fable 5.1 on every platform: for accounts created on or after August 31, 2026, 00:00 UTC, replaying a thinking block after such an edit returns a 400 error by default. There is no code change for append-only integrations. See [Thinking blocks are tied to the model and the conversation](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/models/opus-5-5/whats-new-opus-5-5#thinking-blocks-are-tied-to-the-model-that-produced-them) and [Preserved thinking](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/build-with-claude/preserved-thinking).
