Reading this really makes me wish that I had a slightly better workflow. I'm really soley dependent of Fable to the point that I don't use other models, and I've already sort of hit a point where I'm running into usage limits every week. I am really living on borrowed time — when Anthropic finally collapses their 50% usage increase at the end of August, I'll definitely be forced to switch my workflow. When that happens, I have a hard time imagining that I'll be sticking with a single model on a single provider.
I've been using GPT-5.6 Luna for everything at this point. It is more than enough to do all the work I need to do. You have to lead it by the nose, but if you know where you're going it works really, really well.
IMO it's kinda fun to mess around with these multi-model workflows. I've been using paseo to orchestrate everything.
Boy you should try model routing, I dont think using Fable for all the tasks makes sense to me
Sol is basically at the same level, but with better usage. You're not dependent on Fable. You could switch the next minute and hardly experience quality differences.
