Unclear It is not clear whether fable52 can be typed anywhere you choose a model, such as the model setting.

What

Fable 5.2 shows up in two places where you choose a model:

  • Alias: fable52 was added to the list of model alias names (short names you can type instead of a full model ID), after fable51. It matches the Fable 5.2 model ID in the system prompt.
  • Model picker: the /model picker now groups less common options behind a 'More models' row you can expand or collapse. With screen-reader mode on, the row is announced as 'More models, expanded' or 'More models, collapsed'. This replaces a separate 'more models' toggle.
  • Highlighting: the Fable 5.2 label is the one shown in the Claude colour.
  • Fast-mode note: the line about fast mode is shortened to 'Switching models can turn it off.' It used to say 'Switching to other models turns off fast mode.'

Why

You can pick Fable 5.2 by its short name or find it highlighted in /model, while rarely used models stay out of the way until you open the 'More models' row.
