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.

I feel the same way with Cursor Composer 2.5.

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
