I was looking forward to using Fable for cybersecurity work, but kept getting bumped to Opus… Signed my org up for CVP, went through the trouble of procuring a separate team plan from our main org as Anthropic can only disable cyber safeguards for an entire org and not individual users…

After months of trouble dealing with KYC and procurement I finally got CVP for my security org and today I found out that CVP (which is what removes cyber safeguards) does not apply to Fable…

So yeah, unless you’re a Project Glasswing member, there’s no using Fable (which with Glasswing is Mythos) for security work… Absolutely useless…

Didn’t they just sign some “we must use AI for cyber defense before the bad guys do” and then they artificially cap us by not allowing Cyber-unlocked Fable…

Sigh…

“Treat the agents like coworkers” - I’m working on this exact problem with daevix.com

Unique identity, dedicated and isolated compute, all ingress and egress monitored and audited as if I suspected the coworker (the agent) was secretly a DPRK spy.

I’ve heard from people inside Google that they’re prohibited from using anything but their own models. AlbertaTech on YT, ex-Google working on YT said in a video that right before she quit someone had threatened to quit if they couldn’t get access to Claude Code

Amazing news!

The one thing I wish they’d support is multiple zones and an RBAC system to grant certain users access to specific zones. If they’d offer that they’d be a serious contender to replace Cloudflare and AWS/GCP DNS

Not really, and neither does the doc it links to. It explains the difference between a personal agent (that acts as you) and a multiplayer agent (that has its own identity).

But they walk all this back by saying that for PRs in GitHub it uses the upstream Claude for GitHub app - that is one installation of a GH app, which means one identity, one list of repos it can access. In the audit logs it will be impossible to see if it was Claude Tag from Channel Y or Claude Tag from channel X.

Arguably that’s a limitation of the abysmal state of machine identities in GH.

Agent identity and attribution continues to be important, but current systems makes it oh so difficult.

I’d be curious how they’ve solved the attribution/provenance/identity problem here. Are instances of Claude Tag, across channels, sharing the same identity? Can I grant one instance access to a range of AWS roles and another instance access to other roles?

During an incident, how do I know which Claude Tag called AWS?

I would love to see a forge that consists of composable components, self-host able with federated identities and maybe a few centralized indexers

The approval part is really interesting - No problems with timeouts or operators not being around to approve?

Ah yes, the API will accept requests that doesn’t include the client attestation (or the fingerprint from src/utils/fingerprint.ts. At least it did a couple of weeks back.

They are most likely using these as post-fact indicators and have automation they kicks in after a threshold is reached.

Now that the indicators have leaked, they will most likely be rotated.

What signing?

Are you referencing the use of Claude subscription authentication (oauth) from non-Claude Code clients?

That’s already possible, nothing prevents you from doing it.

They are detecting it on their backend by profiling your API calls, not by guarding with some secret crypto stuff.

At least that’s how things worked last week xD

We were not. I reached out to the team at BerriAI to offer my assistance as a security professional, given that they requested help from security experts.

Very interesting!

I’ve got an internal tool that we use. It doesn’t do the deterministic classifier, but purely offloads to an LLM. Certain models achieve a 100% coverage with adversarial input which is very cool.

I’m gonna have a look at that deterministic engine of yours, that could potentially speed things up!

Well, the head of reliability did leave a month or two ago zD
