New Claude app strings, Fable 5 coming back only with verification

Anthropic is preparing to put Fable 5 behind a separate usage-credit system billed outside existing plans, with credits added only after identity verification, according to new Claude app strings. The company previously said identity verification was unrelated to Fable and limited to flagged accounts, but the new verification language appeared alongside Fable 5 credit changes, tightening regulations.
