Claude Fable 5 completes multi-day agent runs with fewer manual checkpoints, self-corrects through verification loops, and catches bugs prior models missed—available now on GitLab Duo Agent Platform.
Summary
Reduces iteration cost on high-stakes tasks (multi-file refactors, incident triage, IaC definitions) by delivering first-shot correctness on complex problems. Teams can assign harder problems to agents and check results asynchronously instead of babysitting execution.

Implementation verdict
Replaces manual checkpoint/re-prompting workflows in existing GitLab Duo agent setups. Requires GitLab Duo Agent Platform access (free trial available, included in Premium/Ultimate tiers). Start with your hardest unsolved problem to validate capability—routine tasks won't show the difference. Worth trying now if you're already on GitLab; marginal friction for existing users.
