I'm experimenting with large-ish software projects using Claude Fable. The results are surprising to me.

- Project portfolio management software. Good results so far. This is unguided experimentation: Fable researches feature ideas and plans them, then Opus 5 implements them, without me in the loop. The features include things such as an auth server, full-text search, audit logging, resource leveling, HA/DR, IaC, and more.

- FHIR & SNOMED medical software experimentation in demo-only environments. This has mixed results so far. This is guided experimentation: the FHIR specifications and SNOMED specifications are thorough and I'm in the loop. Fable plans OK, but Opus 5 is thrashing a lot, going down many rabbit holes.
