For primary quotes and complete technical detail, see HN Claude/Codex/Fable's original report linked above.
Developer Action Items
- โ Verify the claim on the official Claude / Codex page (or HN Claude/Codex/Fable), not from this recap alone.
- โ Name the surface that moved โ API, policy, model, hardware, or commercial terms โ before you Slack the thread.
- โ Assign one owner a day to read the primary material and decide: this-sprint, this-quarter, or noise.
- โ Do not change production on day-one coverage. Watch the vendor changelog and one independent write-up first.
