Fable 5.1 ships, and the meters go back to zero
Launch day and refill day, same sentence. The product note is also the apology.
Summary: On 1 Sep 2026 @ClaudeDevs said that with Fable 5.1 out that day, 5-hour and weekly limits had been reset for all users.

What landed
On 1 Sep 2026, @ClaudeDevs posted: “With Fable 5.1 out today, we’ve also reset 5-hour and weekly limits for all users.”
No root cause in the post. The reset is tied to the model release, not to a named outage.
Why it matters
A full 5-hour and weekly reset is a real capacity event. Pairing it with a launch makes the refill look like a gift and like a correction at the same time.
Satire margin
New model. Old meters. Both announced in twelve words.
