Capabilities
About Claude Mythos 5
Anthropic's access-gated frontier model for approved Project Glasswing cybersecurity defenders and biomedical research organizations. Shares the same underlying architecture as Claude Fable 5 but operates with safety classifiers lifted in specific domains: cybersecurity safeguards are removed for all Glasswing participants, while biology safeguards are additionally removed for approved biology-track participants. Succeeds Claude Mythos Preview with significantly reduced pricing ($10/$50 per MTok input/output vs. $25/$125 for Mythos Preview), a 1M-token context window, 128k max output tokens, adaptive thinking always on (raw chain of thought never returned), vision, tool use, structured outputs, and the effort parameter for controlling thinking depth.
