Fable Advisor
Get a focused second opinion from Claude Fable 5.1 without substituting the host
tool's model.
Route by tool
In Claude Code, delegate to the native fable-advisor agent. Do not launch
another Claude Code process.
Elsewhere, run this exact shape from this skill's directory so the request
reaches standard input:
node scripts/ask_fable.mjs <<'REVIEW'
the review request
REVIEW
State the decision, the evidence behind it, and any constraint that changes the
verdict. Name the paths that matter: the reviewer has read-only access and
checks load-bearing claims itself.
Return Fable's answer without rewriting it. If claude is missing or
unauthenticated, surface the error and ask the user to install it or sign in.
Never review in its place.
