ClaudeAI users advised to use Fable as advisor, not primary model

A Reddit user is advising the ClaudeAI community on how to optimize their use of different Claude models, particularly Fable. The user suggests that Fable should be used as an "advisor" rather than the primary model for all tasks to manage costs and performance. They detail a setup where Opus 5.5 handles the main thread, Fable 5.1 acts as an advisor for critical decision points, and Sonnet 5.5 or Opus are used for subagent tasks, with escalation protocols in place.
