README
The Fable Five
Five skills written by Claude Fable 5, the smartest model Anthropic has ever shipped, before it leaves your plan.
You can't keep the model. You can keep its playbook. Each skill is Fable's own working method written down as a manual, so every model that comes after (Opus, Sonnet, whatever's next) reads it and holds itself to the same standard.
The five
| Skill | Job | Fires when |
|---|---|---|
The Bouncer (bouncer) |
Pre-ship security check. Nothing goes live without getting checked at the door. | You deploy, publish, or say "is this safe?" |
The Foundation (foundation) |
Starts projects so they still make sense in a month. Skeleton before features. | Any new project or build begins |
The Architect (architect) |
Asks the questions that change the build, then writes a plan a smaller model can execute solo. | "Plan this", or any multi-step feature |
The Straight Shooter (straight-shooter) |
Your plan critiqued with the yes-man switched off. Verdict first, then the math. | "What do you think?", "Be honest" |
The Lie Detector (lie-detector) |
Catches "fixed!" when it isn't. Reproduce, prove the fix ran, re-run, paste output. | Any fix claim, any "should work now" |
Install (the easy way)
Open Claude Code (or Claude Cowork) and say:
Install the skills from https://github.com/tenfoldmarc/fable-five for me
Install (manual)
git clone https://github.com/tenfoldmarc/fable-five.git /tmp/fable-five && \
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && \
cp -R /tmp/fable-five/bouncer /tmp/fable-five/foundation /tmp/fable-five/architect /tmp/fable-five/straight-shooter /tmp/fable-five/lie-detector ~/.claude/skills/
That's it. The skills trigger automatically when their moment comes, or you can call them by name: "run the bouncer on this", "architect this feature", "straight shooter: here's my offer."
Note for Claude (or any AI agent) doing this install
