Fable 5 is back in Cursor now:
Claude Fable 5 is available again in Cursor.
It leads all models on CursorBench, but is the most expensive per task.
Cursor has brought back Anthropic's Claude Fable 5 for general use inside its IDE after a brief suspension, giving developers direct access to the model that currently tops the platform's CursorBench for complex agentic tasks while also carrying the highest per-task cost of any option available.

It leads all models on CursorBench, but is the most expensive per task.
The model now integrates with Cursor's full toolset including agent features and semantic search, letting users tackle multi-file problems that previously sat out of reach for other models on the platform.
Claude Fable 5 runs at roughly double the price of comparable models and can hit around twenty dollars per task in practice, leaving teams to weigh whether the performance edge justifies the added expense from the shared API pool.
Many users are excited about Claude Fable 5 returning to Cursor and leading CursorBench because of its strong performance and usefulness, while some object to the high cost per task.
No Digg Deeper questions have been answered for this story yet.

@cursor_ai Composer 2.5 is actually insane.

@cursor_ai I thought they banned it from coding?

@cursor_ai it will still available past July 7?

@cursor_ai That's why you use it for architecting and then the amazing Composer 2.5 for building and GPT 5.5 for checking the work. Best workflow, for ME.

@benln Available in cloud agents?

@colin_digital @cursor_ai no you can use it

@cursor_ai Not worth a sub yet. Fell back to Opus 4.8 on a routine audit. Pretty useless.

@colin_digital @Mayuu_France @cursor_ai SOME coding tasks

@Mayuu_France @cursor_ai Maybe…I haven’t seen any updates since they announced it would fall back to Opus for coding

@cursor_ai The price section of the chart has been expanded to include prices up to 20 dollars. Let’s see which models will be added there in the future.

@colin_digital @cursor_ai They did. It falls back to Opus for code. Its just Opus in an overpriced dress.

@skunky @cursor_ai Ok cool, thought so

@cursor_ai my $20 plan looking at all these new releases

@cursor_ai FINALLY

@cursor_ai Will it show as an option in cursor iOS? I see it on desktop but not on mobile.
