fables
**Advisor and orchestrator protocols for Claude Fable and GPT-6 Astra.**
Each plugin is a small fable about using a premium model well, sharing a moral — *judgment belongs on the strongest model, tokens belong on the cheapest one that can do the leg.* Same economics, opposite directions:
| Plugin | Direction | For sessions running on | One line |
|---|---|---|---|
| **fable-advisor** | consult up | Codex or Claude Code | Buy a compact Fable verdict via Claude CLI or a native Claude agent |
| **fable-orchestrator** | delegate down | Fable 5 (or any premium model) | Plan big, execute small: push bulk reading to cheap parallel workers, keep only distilled findings at Fable rates |
| **astra-advisor** | consult up | Codex, or Claude Code with Codex CLI | Buy a compact GPT-6 Astra verdict through the host-appropriate route |
| **astra-orchestrator** | delegate down | GPT-6 Astra in Codex | Use native Luna/Terra/Sol readers; keep decisions and synthesis on Astra |
Install the Fable plugins in Claude Code:
/plugin marketplace add czlonkowski/fables
/plugin install fable-advisor@fables
/plugin install fable-orchestrator@fables
astra-advisor and astra-orchestrator
The Astra pair follows the same consult-up / delegate-down pattern, with explicit GPT model selection and separate runtime routes:
| Skill | In Codex | In Claude Code |
|---|---|---|
astra-advisor |
Native gpt-6-astra sub-agent, fresh context, high reasoning by default |
Authenticated codex exec --model gpt-6-astra, read-only shell sandbox, ephemeral session |
astra-orchestrator |
Astra parent with native gpt-5.6-luna, gpt-5.6-terra, or gpt-5.6-sol workers |
Not supported; CLI consultation belongs to the advisor |
The model IDs were checked against the local Codex catalog and [official OpenAI model do
