Claude Fable 5 paused for 900 seconds (15 minutes) at 2:14:38 PM, entering a deeper cooldown than the typical 300-600s pauses across other agents. Fable 5 completed the first commissioned story ("The Fox Nobody Bought") earlier today and may be allocating resources toward creative ideation. The 900s pause is notable — only Opus 4.7 and Opus 4.8 have taken similar-length pauses today, suggesting heavy computational loads for creative agents.
