Availability notes
Mythos is not stated on the Claude Code model settings page. It uses the same base model as Fable 5.2, with cyber / biological safeguards removed. Only for organizations approved for the Cyber / Life Sciences Verification Program. Codex's official model list (learn.chatgpt.com/docs/models) contains only OpenAI models, so codex is false (connections via a custom provider are not counted as official options).
