# claude-fable-5-skills

10 battle-ready Agent Skills for Claude Fable 5 and 5.1 — the first skill collection designed around how Claude Fable 5 actually behaves, not how older models needed to be babysat. Fable 5.1 (released 2026-09-01) runs Fable 5 prompts unchanged; the skills fold in its documented behavior differences.

See [README.md](README.md) for the full list and design principles. Each individual skill lives in its own folder: `skills/<name>/SKILL.md`.

## The 10 skills

- `skill-refactorer` — audits pre-Fable-5 skills/prompts (and Fable 5 skills now running on 5.1), deletes capability-compensation scaffolding, keeps real guardrails
- `act-when-ready` — stops over-planning and re-deriving settled facts at high effort
- `effort-calibrator` — picks the right effort level per workload
- `no-gold-plating` — prevents diffs bigger than the ask, including test files out of proportion to the change
- `grounded-progress` — ties status reports to tool-result evidence
- `scope-guard` — separates diagnosis from unrequested state changes
- `subagent-orchestration` — patterns for parallel delegation, fresh-context verifiers, and batched tool calls
- `markdown-memory` — file-based lesson memory with maintenance discipline
- `autonomous-continuation` — keeps unattended runs from stalling
- `regrounding-summary` — final reports readable by someone who saw none of the work
