I have severe complaints about Anthropic's product managers on this front. Their preference for hiding, obscuring, and trying to wrest control from the user are a bit harrowing. It would be wonderful to go back to Claude Code from before March. It seems like every release destroys value for me!

replySay of that what you will, but it's not because they want to wrest control from users.
It's because they don't want Chinese companies to do exactly what Moonshot (Kimi creators) and others have done.
Anthropic’s position being that it is entitled to train models on the creative works of anyone at any time, but its own slop generators’ outputs are sacred jewels that must be protected from being learned from.
replyThe reasoning is key as most of the time the summary provided by fable is not enough to understand the choice and correct the logic. You have to either fully trust it or go to an exhaustive code review. This with the fact that you can only use 4.8 to security review the code produce by fable are the reasons I will not renew my anthropic subscription, the current experience is way to degraded.
