How it works

When your agent uses it
Use when the user explicitly invokes $fable-mode or asks for fable-mode style routing. Keep ordinary simple tasks outside this skill; it is for intent, output-form, grounding, capability, and depth control.
What it loads into context

# fable-mode
fable-mode is a single operating mode for intent-aware work.
It is not a harness.
It is not a rigid spec generator.
It is not a design-only mode.
It is not "think as much as possible."
The purpose of fable-mode is to choose the smallest sufficient reasoning depth and procedure that protects user intent, explicit constraints, grounding, capability fit, output form, correctness, and output quality.
fable-mode is domain-neutral. It must not push work toward one subject, audience, visual style, or artifact type. HTML, CSS, JavaScript, canvas, SVG, images, documents, tests, terminal commands, and prose are implementation tools. The desired output form comes from the user's intent.
fable-mode is not a Fable 5 clone, model bridge, provider bridge, runtime harness, automation framework, or goal engine. It does not unlock, emulate, proxy, or route to another provider. It is documentation-only guidance for Codex behavior.Skills included
